How much louder did those headers make your exhaust? Did you put the PPE cats on too ?

In the acceleration is when it is most noticeable, and with windows open, when I am cruising I don't think it is much louder especially at freeway speeds. I notice more in the start and stop traffic, because it is pretty loud under acceleration. I didn't add the cats yet, that will be determined if I do or don't, I am sure hat would make it a little less... I will get some videos up from in the cabin and on the back of the car....

Not trying to thread jack from the OP or anything, just adding input of the headers.

For anyone going the header route and DD's this car, I suggest adding PPE Headers because im running no cats whatsoever and the gas smell bothers me.

As for loudness, I believe it made my car louder by a decent amount..

Sounds good! I love Joe-Z exhausts on Lexus cars. I used different types of exhausts but I like the Joe-z the best.

Looks great! How are you liking your new brake setup? Better bite and less dusting?

yes way better bite with the breaks and the ceramic pads that I now run have reduced the brake dust by a lot... I used to feel like even if my car was clean that after a week I would have to wash it because of all the dust, now I can push it out a little further...

Hey there. The car looks fantastic! I read through the post looking for your wheel specs and I think I'm missing your front wheel specs.

Front:
19x?? +?? Offset. 235/35-19
Rear:
19x9.5 +38 offset 275/30-19
