Your mom earned you a new subscriber. Pure joy when she was hitting the throttle. Keep up the good work my brother.
Thank you man! It’s super slow but she made it hella fun haha
Dude your mom is beautiful 😍 and is so cool. Im going to see if i can get my mom to do the same once i install mine. Lol 😆. I literally couldn't stop smiling!
You remind me of myself. We’re confident in ourselves around our own people but seem out of place around outsiders. I’ve been to one Lexus meet in Houston and was dying to get out. Felt much better hanging with my girl and friends at Sonic on our own. Love the channel
Exactly! Don’t get me wrong, I love meeting new people but you know how you can just tell that some people aren’t worth your time? It’s like a vine they give off. But yes, I’d rather hang out with my girl or close friends at a restaurant! Thank you so much for watching man!🙌🏿
I love how genuine you are, man! Love from Australia ❤️
Thank you so much! And I’m glad you enjoyed the video! Much love from California!🙏🏿
Your music really put me in a Disney mood while watching you “plag en pleiii”😎😆
Hell yeah! I'm glad you enjoyed the video! Thank you so much for watching! Disney is life!
Bruh your mom's confidence and reaction to the car was phenomenal LMAO but I gotchu on that car meet perspective. Once you scan through all the cars throughout the meet there's really nothing else but to just talk to people. Some people are cocky as hell too but I guess it's important bringing homies to meets.
Haha yeah, I was like shook for her because she’s asian & a woman, two strikes when it comes to being a bad driver LOL jk. And yeah it’s definitely important to bring homies. There will be those rare nice people that you actually vibe with and become friends! But that’s really rare too!
@@JasonNguyen Dude no kidding! Lowkey the supercar owners are like that sometimes, but not all fortunately!
Bruh!!! I've never smiled so much watching a video! Dope car, dope fam, dope outlook on life. Keep these vlogs comin'!
Thank you man! I’m glad you enjoyed it and I’m glad I could put a smile on your face!!
wtf yyyyoooooo that SAMURAI GEAR STICK is literally the best fucking idea iv actually ever seen that is 1 mint af car!
Thank you so much dude! I really appreciate it!!🙌🏿
Woah. Those seats are insane! The IS350 has always had a soft spot for me. I'm actively looking for one and will pull the trigger when I find one in the exact color with all the options I want. And now I want those seats!
Thank you! And you’ll find that perfect one for you! These seats are a must as well! They look good and they feel good!🙏🏾
Hahaha mom's on the red line cracked me up
OK due to the abundance of time, thanks Corona V19. I took the time to install the controlla on my 09 is350 The removal of the stock throtal plug was very difficult. After busting a knuckle and wasting 30 min I ended up using a needle nose vice grip which removed the plug right away. Iam sure any kind of grip carfully applied will work real well. Insallation took 2 min after that. Results: I have the MPH halo set at 95 mph, I set the Apexi on the red setting for the highway, the red halo lit very quick and I feel out of my comfort zone. I will have to get use to the full throtall aceleration at 75mph plus. Lots of fun , I was with my son and he said he noticed the differences too.
u gained a follower, bc I feel like you, I hate meets everyone seems cocky always there to judge I feel awkward and also your work Is awesome keep it up. That end with your mom being so supportive was awesome, very young looking mom.
Thank you so much! That means a lot! So many car guys act like they’re better than everyone else because of their cars or money. We all share the same passion and I feel like it shouldn’t be a competition! & yeah, she’s definitely gotten more supportive over the years!
Jason Nguyen keep it up and stay humble always, that will take you to places. 🙏🏽
Was good wit that theme music i thought i was playing zelda again
Ayye thank you so much!! Zelda is the shit!🙏🏿
I had Sprint Booster & these things really work, they don't add any hp but the make the pedal sensitive & make it feel faster
I completely agree! Definitely a good “bang for your buck” mod!
you honestly need more subscribers bro great content will continue watching
Thank you so much!! I appreciate the support 💯
I had a lot of smile on my face even watching this video for the second time after a long while. Love ur videos bruhhh..
Thank you so so much man! You’re awesome for rewatching! This was definitely one of my fave videos as well! Nothing beats being able to look back at a moment and enjoy it again!🙏🏿😭
I’m your Lexus Homie 😂🤟🏼
Also I got the takeda cold air intake. Massive difference. Very deep sound and I feel much more low end torque. You should look into it for you next vid!
FishSlappa233 I had an AEM intake and I got state ref’d so I had to sell it as it was not CA Carb Legal.. is the Takeda CA Carb Legal?
Yeah just looked it up. It’s not legal in Cali, I didn’t think it was that strict down there. That’s crazy they won’t let you run a intake like that.
FishSlappa233 ikr? We just run it for the sound lmao.
I mean you won’t get pulled over for it. But if you have an exhaust and they just wanna be a dick, they’ll pull you over and if they pop the hood, you lose lol.
Love Lexus, I’ve Owned 3x . Did you ever get any problems with police those red led globes??
Thank you so much for watching! Lexus all day! And I used to get pulled over for them all the time! Not so much anymore haha
Lol Jason i dig the video and your antics throughout 🤣! Thanks for sharing. I just bought a Hikeit for my 2013 Lexus GS FSport Rwd. Also i love your seats 💺
Thank you so much for watching man!!! I’m glad you enjoyed it!🙏🏿
Wow! Finally a video of someone installing this!! I need this!!?!!
Love your videos Jason! The car is looking amazing!!
Atif Ahad thank you man! I really appreciate it! 💪🏿
I would be terrified to let my Vietnamese mom drive, but wow your mom is so cool!
Right?! Haha, she didn’t crash so that’s a win win 🤣
should get the RR Racing tune next! A little redundant and late but it Improves throttle response passively and makes the pedal response more linear!
R8Prototype I was considering it! However if I supercharge, it’ll just be a waste of money... 😔
@@JasonNguyen agreed, they used to give discounts if you already had the tune but not anymore. I was thinking about supercharging as well... Then I did a compression test and had relatively low compression on cylinder 2 :( itd be sweet if you did it, I've only seen 1 or 2 that are SC'd
They do still give the discount last time I checked. They just send you a new tune file and you use the tuner they give you when you originally bought your tune!
@@davispitts for the 350 SC kit I saw the tune discount but not for the 250 kit. Maybe if you contact them directly they can apply it, not sure.
R8Prototype how many miles do you have? Are you 2is or 3is?
I really want to do it someday! Ima take good care of my engine until then! It would be really dope because I don’t want a 350 lol or an ISF.
Cool install, fun mom 👍
david1317 she says thank you!
Such pure joy. Seriously enjoy watching your vlogs.
Thank you so so much, Joseph! I’m glad you enjoy watching them! It means the world to me 🙌🏿
I read the apexi is buggy …but that’s on the RCF …. Gonna try the pedal commander on the is350.
I’ve had mine for over 2 years with no issues!🙏🏾
They honestly all do the same thing haha. It just depends on preference & budget!
THIS MAN JUST GOT ANOTHER SUB KEEP UP THE VIDS BRO!!
Thank you so much for subscribing! I’m glad you liked the video and welcome to the channel!!🙌🏿
Big man mad luv and respect from India 🇮🇳
Damn! That’s so sick!! Thank you for the love man! Much love from Cali!
I like your car seat
Thank you!
Some kingdom hearts sounding music is awesome compared to most car videos that just have the same generic hip hot beats, good stuff on here man
Thank you! I appreciate that a lot! I love kingdom hearts❤️🔥
I'll be your lexus homie!!! 🤝
Yooo your house has so many cars 14:56 who drives that blue lexus yoo mommy? 😂🤭👍
IronMan164 haha, my dad has friends that he plays tennis with across the street at the park. When there’s no street parking, they park in my driveway. The 200t is my pops! My mom drives a red jaguar, ol boujiee ass haha
Your car looks dope asf. I got my 08 is350 today and it handles like a dream. Def getting those VLAND headlights soon! And I agree w you on illiminate - funny and chill dudes who just love cars
Thank you so much! And Congrats man! Enjoy!! I LOVE the VLANDS. It would be one of my first mods too! And yeah the illiminate dudes are the best!
Hey man cool mod, I wasn't aware of these. I wonder how much it would help on my 200t bc the lag is PRETTY REAL LOL. I feel you on meets, just hanging out with car friends getting lunch and stuff is more fun for me. BUT, I am taking my car to a show in December and the main reason is so I can take pictures of it in a show setting bc I think it makes for good background scenery. The one I'm going to isn't indoors, but that's definitely another goal: getting some sick indoor show pics.
Also your mom going ham AND cheese on the throttle had me dying dude
halfwaytillbliss it would help a lot as long as you have a tune. Because you guys have turbo lag as well as throttle wire lag. Oh dude, I would much rather grab a bite and kick it than just go to a boring meet with people who are just stuck up lol.
I want some indoor show pics someday too! Dude good luck in the show! I hope you have a blast when you go!!
Dude, she had me dying to but mainly my engine was dying lmaooooo
Glad I found your channel and I have nearly watched all of your videos. Keep up the good work! And with your awesome one hand recording skills! lol
Also just wanted to ask and sorry if this was already asked. But does driving with the throttle on, make your fuel go down quicker? Thanks in advance.
Thank you!! I really appreciate you watching my videos!! Not a problem! It does not waste fuel faster however the way you drive will change, which will affect fuel. I notice that I do let it hit higher rpms sometimes. But I always drive in Sport Mode & High Throttle Mode (RED).
Would you please share the link to where you bought the LED interior, door, mirror, trunk, license plate lights? Thanks!
Great, another toy I have to purchase, lol.. dope content as always man 🔥
Thank you brotha! I really appreciate it. And you’re gonna love this toy. Everyone I’ve recommended it to, they love it!

If I was in Cali, I’d be your Lexus homie 😔
Moms a baddie
Thanks for watching! I appreciate it!🙏🏿
This is what my car needs it has a bit of throttle lag before it takes off
Update I bought the Injen X Petal Pro Throttle Controller and let me tell you my car is so much quicker now!
Did u still using it now? Did u like it?
you sold me on this... now i just need the links for this... i found it on apexi website but i just want to be sure its the right one.
That’s awesome! Just gotta make sure you get the proper harness for your make and model as well. The controller is universal!
Great video Bro! Looking to get this Throttle controller now thanks! Subscribed!
Thank you!! And thank you for the support! You’ll love the controller! It really makes a difference!
love the sound of the is250 tbh, and i love my is250 08'
I do too! That’s why I got it over the IS200t!! I just love the sound of V6s. Until I own a V8 someday!!
Coolest mom ever! 🤩🤘
Great vid bro! Love the car!
Thank you man!!! It means a lot!
i love this channel
Thank you much for watching! You’re the best🤍
Hey Jason! It's another year later. Are you still using this? Still working with no bad side effects? Thanks!
Yessir! It’s been running perfectly! Absolutely love it! It’s a must have for any car!!
I just purchased at 2014 IS 250. And looking at purchasing this. Can you send me the link
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TINA !! 😁🙏🏼
Keep up the 🔥🔥 content bro
Christopher Kheluram thank you bud! I’ll try!
Yo bro that shift knob is drippy where did you cop it from? How many inches is it
Hey man! Thank you! It’s a 5 or 6 inch! I don’t really remember but I have the link in my video titled, “MOD LIST.” It should be there! I got it on amazon (:
Awesome video!
Thank you!!🙏🏿
Hmmmm confused between getting the apexi throttle controller or other brands like sprint booster
Apexi is the way to go!
Jason Nguyen bet!!! 💪🏾
New intro is dope af bro
noob2you1 thank you so much!!!!
Good work.. good car.. nice mom🌹🌷
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed the video!🙌🏿
i just wanna get rid of that sudden lurch my car does once it’s up in the rpm’s it honestly felt unsafe at times. i own a g37 and other than basic maintenance this might be my first “performance” upgrade after watching your review (:
Thank you so much for watching! I really appreciate it! I’m sure you’ll love it!!🙌🏿
Good video. I could almost hear what you were saying over the loud ass music
Thank you so much for watching! I really appreciate it🙌🏿
@@JasonNguyen never expected a reply hahah
Hey nice work on you lexus. Do you have info on the gray wire install. Dose the controller over ride the oem power eco switch settings, and when you put the care in reverse and in red mode dose it affect the response . Thanks
Thank you! The grey wire install makes it so that when you reverse, it disables the controller. Reversing in red mode is way better for me honestly. Less throttle lag!
Have you any experience with the Roar Pedal, and if so would you recommend the Apexi or the Roar Pedal for the Lexus?..
Would it be bad if I put it in a four-cylinder car?
Not at all! You just need to find the harness that is meant for your model!
Ok wait i love your shifter. Is that the end of a katana sword? That's sick considering its a Japanese car too... btw who's the guy in Green??? Yum 😋 lol 😆!
Thank you man! It’s a katana shift knob! And that’s my uncle! Haha
I thought those aftermarket lights change color. But aye bruh, I fw yo Lexus IS 🔥🔥🔥 subbed too cuz I’m tryna get me one in da future n mod it somewhat like yours 🙏🏿💯‼️
Hell yeah man! Thank you so much! You totally should! You won’t regret it
Can you show you you disconnected that damn cable? I can't get it
It’s tough, it takes me about 15-20 minutes sometimes, you just gotta keep trying😅
Where did you find f start button in red
Awesome vids bro! Loving your vlogs and awesome mod! Dude your mom is very supportive 🤣🤣🤣 also do they make these for 2016 is200t?
Andy Yin haha she’s honestly whatever with it because it’s my money lol.
Sometimes I’ll get that random “why do you waste so much money.” But then it’s followed up with, “can you help me write this post for Facebook?” After I help her she’s all nice again lol. Yes they do! However you’ll need a tune to help remove your boost lag as well. 200ts have throttle lag as well as boost lag.
Awesome new intro bro 🤙🏼
Thank you dude!🙌🏿
Wassup Jason,
I gotta go back to this video to ask you if you have any tips to unplug the gas pedal connector 😂 I gave up after an hour trying to pull it out. I felt the clip but couldn’t pull it out tho. Thanks a lot 😂
Hey bud! Thanks for watching! It’s super hard to get out! The only advice that worked for me was to feel where it is on the new one and try and find where it is on the old one and just try your best to pull it out! It’s a tight space as well. It took me 15-20 mins😭
@@JasonNguyen Hey! Thanks a lot for your reply. I just ended up ordering the special tool for it. Hope it'll work.
Hey you took off the catalytic ??
It still has the cats!
Jesus that exhaust sounds nice. What mods have you done to it? Nice video btw. Also considering throttle controller
Thank you! It’s a full custom exhaust!!
And I also have a full mod list video on my channel with everything that I’m running!
@@JasonNguyen Will have a look. Appreciate the response. God bless and have a good day :)
Keep up the great videos !
What website did you get this at ? Do they have it for the 09 is250?
BeastFromTheEast they do! I know ISF owners love this mod. I pinned the link for everyone!!
What's the secret to getting the clip off of the top of the throttle? I can't get mine off. Tried everything.
To be honest, I was just pressing on where I assumed the clip to be. And it wasn’t really quite on it, once you figure it out by looking at the new harness, you mimic where it is and try again, it’ll come off.
Can this work for RC350 F Sport?
Yes it does!
Hi Jason, I am from Singapore. I viewed quite a number of your videos and they are really nice 👍🏻. May I know what makes you decided to choose Apexi instead of others like Tom’s or Pivot?
Thank you so much for watching! I picked apexi because it was the most used! I did a lot of research and everyone was pleased with Apexi!
Was this worth the buy? I’m starting to mod my IS I just bought new wheels deciding if this should be next.
Totally worth, best bang for your buck you can buy!!!
can you please put a link for one that works for 2006-2010 is 250
I don’t know where else you can get it as the website that I got it from no longer sells them ):
@@JasonNguyen alright. ill look for one. you inspired me to get a is250. thanks sm 🙏
@@JasonNguyen Also if you need a video editor lmk. I edit videos for creators. You can contact me: derikyadegarian@gmail.com
Thoughts on simple bolt ons? Exhaust intake and tune? Thanks
I think exhaust, headers, and tune will help the most! Cold air Intake on these NA engines don’t do much. Stock intake is best imo!
Yo if I have the 2013 Lexus IS can I use the 2014 harness?
I don’t think so ):
You’ll need the harness that is appropriate to your model year!
YEOOOOOOOOO was it hard to paint the cf seibon lip ?
Lex3is no it wasnt. But my mechanic handled it. He’s super good with paint! Any body shop can do it!
Jason Nguyen ok yea because idk I’ve had people say can’t repair or painted because of cf so didn’t know if true
You can do both. I used to think it was not repairable either! You just have to find someone who knows how!
Bruh I cant tell if you drive a lexus IS or GS or both lol. Dope vid, subscribed. I have the gs450h, do you recommend the Apexi controller? @Jason Nguyen
Thank you so much man! GS’ are FIRE! Love them. And yes! I recommend it for any and EVERY car!
Are you still using it on your IS? Any issues so far? How does it impact your fuel economy?
Yes I am! It’s been great! And it affects fuel economy because you’ll want to full throttle more haha
Would this work on a VW Jetta 2014?
Yes! They make throttle controllers for all cars!
What’s up Jason I have the Same car as you and I was wondering with this new set up you got and you have AWD do you sometimes slip traction when the throttle body has high sensitivity?
Hey boss! I have a RWD! And it doesn’t slip traction at all! Only only when I have traction off and I’m flooring it while turning!
