Default 2001 Lexus es300 Exhausts?

What exhausts' are you guys currently running on your es300's? Im running an Megan Racing OE-RS exhaust bolt on catback which i had to bring to a shop to weld since it was too short to fit my car. It really bothers me because the catback itself sits extremely low to the ground, thus i can't lower my car more than 2 inches.. Any other suggestions on a catback or exhaust u guys use?

you're probably gonna find that more than 90% of es300 members here have the factory exhaust or something of the like so your probably gonna have to do a little testing on what fits and get back to us.
most lexus owners are more into suspension,appearance and audio mods. imho, an exhaust on a lexus (other than the LFA) is a horrible touch to a beautiful car.

There's been a few setups on this board, you'll have to search WAY back to find any info to be honest. Not to mention you'll have a hard time finding much out there on north american soil, and having to resort to buying from Japan, if you're really keen on getting something else. Also in Japan the MCV20/21 platform was wider than the one here, so they had exhausts for various station wagons too.

I've looked. Take my word for it.

My es300 uses a Ebay muffler, stock resonator and no cat. its still fairly quiet.
My Avalon (closer to the OP's ES300) uses a AeroTurbine Muffler with all other factory equipment in place. Not really loud but Drones a bit on the highway.
