Well this is a very complex question. Where should I begin? The Lexus uses an advanced multi turbo system. You can reference this using this engine code 1UZ-FE. The way it works is when the clutch is decompressed there is a complex system that swaps to the next bigger turbo. Each gear has a different size turbo corresponding to that gear. The part where Lexus got real tricky was engineering the patented "reverse turbo". When the clutch is decompressed the computer tells the engine to change over to use the reverse turbo that is capable of somewhere between 40-50 pounds of boost, which is why you see so many Lexus drivers cruising in reverse. Those drivers are really utilizing the 300hp produced by the "reverse turbo".
