Smile Newbie here! Exhaust question

This place is awesome!

Quick question, looking for a nice exhaust tone for my 2014 gs 350 f sport. I think I like the invidia but I have an all wheel drive and it seems they only do it for rwd. Any advice or tips would greatly be appreciated. Also any local ny shops to do the work? Have a great night!

AWDs can only be fitted with axle back, if that's what you're looking for, Meisterschaft has a good tone but it is pricey (don't get EV controlled, it's irrelevant on an axle back) or you could get a cat back exhaust, I have heard of a few bros out here modifying a standard cat back

Anything is possible I have a full exhaust and its a Meisterschaft. I would try to go with invidia as the tone is pretty good and isn't that bad, there is a member on here that has the full invidia exhaust see how you like that one and if not you can try Tanabe I think they have one. there isn't many out there for the 4th gen GS.

Hey lazer lazer,

Sounds amazing. Is that axle back or car back? I don't want to void my warranty with cat back so just wondering what axle back sounds like. Thanks for all advice.

The factory axle back from Invidia requires no modification

Now for the mid pipe, that's where the customization comes into play for AWD

I had the full cat back on my RWD so I can't comment from experience

I've read that people with axle back couldn't hear the difference all that too much

Axle back is not with it. I could hardly tell the difference. Not worth spending any amount of money on if you ask me. The day I installed the axle back is the same day I ordered the mid section because the lack of sound. You can search my posts for more info

But what I am reading here is since I have the awd version I can't order the mid section? Am i correct? I am very appreciative of all the responses. You all are amazing.

Yes and they said the sound makes a difference but doesn't go with awd with mid pipe.
