    Actually that car has 2 - catalytic converters & 4 - 02 sensors in its oem form. I've owned my 98' lexus gs400 for past 9 yrs., it's always been my everyday driver & now has 207k miles, awesome car!!

    You can hear the exhaust sounds amazing. The CEL bulbs practically fall out of there sockets with a couple light tapps.

    We don't emissions in my state and my 89 Supra doesn't have cats anymore either, that and a manual boost controller is the only mods done to it and it starts and runs like a top too.

    Literally the only thing affecting its performance is missing the cats and no O2's. The CAI still has a factory MAF so that's not affecting much, even with warm air from the engine bay.

      You must be crazy??
      Why would you leave a car stock when you can have plenty of fun roasting others with a sleeper.
      Stock sucks!!
      And on this video Scotty is only half right because moding a car is where all the money on cars is made in 2020. Lol
      The fastest cars are built not bought. Lol
      But this lexus needs a lot of help though to get it built right though.

      No sir!!
      Stock does not last longer because the automanufacturers don't want you to have the best car.
      My current car for example will last longer than the auto company say's it will because I am using motor oil that is superior to what it came with from the factory. Little details like that go along way to making a car last a very long time.
      The aftermarket industry knows more than the OEM does so long as the parts are not 🇨🇳 made.

    Scotty logic: Check engine light is on, ABS is broken, traction control is broken, transmission is going out, AC is warm, seats are falling apart => This car is very well built.
    Seems legit.

    Aftermarket cold air intakes are ran through the fender or somewhere away from the engine bay. The one he is referring to is just an aftermarket air intake.
