Default VIDEO: My souped up GS460!

Haha.. maan I haven't used that phrase "souped up" in a long time! Anyhow guys..... as promised, I have compiled a video of my 2009 Lexus GS460 after the exhaust install!

Thank you to B2Design for the Tanabe's, Eibachs and Ichiba spacers! Thank you member spine911 for sending out the Invidia's in record time!

I beleive I am the only one with this setup on a 2009 GS460!

Here's the video of my setup!

2009 Lexus GS460
Tanabe Medallion Touring Axle Backs, Invidia Mid Pipes, Tom's High Flow Filter, Eibach Pro Kits and Ichiba 20mm Spacers.

Next up... 19" MRR GT1's in black, Yokohama S.Drive's, cross drilled/slotted rotors!

Enjoy the video guys!

Just spoke in detail with my exhaust installer. Apart from the O2 bungs that had to be relocated, apparently, the flanges that meet up to the exhaust manifolds on the GS460 are slightly aligned differently to the V6 models.

He literally cut off the flanges of the mid pipes, aligned them to the manifolds, teg welded them.. and then took the pipes off and welded them permanently. So basically, the end flanges of the Invidia mid pipes need to be slightly turned anti-clockwise ( clockwise for passenger side ) to line up with the V8 manifold flanges.

Nothing a good exhaust shop can't fix!

Just thought I should let you guys know!
