How much HP does a IS300 2JZ have?
around 215 horsepower
The Lexus IS300 typically comes with two different engine options, depending on the market and the model year: 2JZ-GE Inline-6: This is a legendary engine known for its durability and performance. It’s a naturally aspirated 3.0-liter inline-six engine producing around 215 horsepower and 218 lb-ft of torque.
Is too much boost bad for an engine?
Increasing boost (within reason) will force more air into the engine, so more fuel can be added to increase the power. So in general, if you add more boost and have an engine tuned to suit will give you more power. Too much boost can cause turbo or engine failure.
How much power can IS300 handle?
My understanding from the my.is site is that stock internals handle ~300-330 rwhp or ~8-10 psi turboed. The first weak link seems to be the fuel pump/rails, then the compression, valve springs etc. Staggered wheels don’t offer that much benefit until going past 350 rwhp range.
Did the IS 300 come with a turbo?
The IS 300 is powered by an ultra-smooth 2.0-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engine that delivers 241 horsepower and control without compromise.
How to get 50 extra horsepower?

Does a Lexus IS 300 have a 2JZ?
Power? Oh yeah. Plenty of that. The IS300 uses the same 2JZ-GE 3.0-liter DOHC 24-valve straight-six that propels the bigger Lexus GS300 sedan, an engine that traces its lineage to the old Toyota Supra.
What adds 50 horsepower?
The headers and exhaust will help your vehicle achieve that and it can add up to 50 horsepower. This method is a matter of replacing the vehicle’s factory exhaust and headers with an improved exhaust manifold that increases airflow from the engine through the exhaust.
How add horsepower to an IS 300?
A cold air intake system replaces the factory air intake system with an aftermarket system that draws cooler air outside the engine compartment. Cooler air is denser than warmer air, so more oxygen is available for combustion. This can result in improved throttle response and increased horsepower and torque.
How much does it cost to boost an IS 300?
I did some research and many people have said you’d need around 7500-10000 to boost the is300 but cx racing sells a kit for around 2500 all in.
