that's about right for the labor cost. the reason of wanting to replace the current invidia axel back to tanabe is first it's a true quad tips exhaust, second it is also a bit quieter than the q300 as I do have a 2 yrs old sitting at the back. Less drone is always better.

We have the Aimgain diffuser on our IS with custom quad tips.

To get a great finish and fitment, Toms exhaust with Toms diffuser.

Thanks for the info bro!

I do love the sound of the invida with the midpipe - and I got the greddy intake - (great combo)

They are basically helmholtz style tubes added to the axle back. Yes, they are used to reduce highway drone in cabin for a certain rpm range.

Yes that too, and Aimgain, and every other JDM brand that sells quad diffusers.

Can you PM me a price? Will the TOMS fit with an IS350 ARK AWD midpipe? Is there a specific diffuser that needs to be used with this particular exhaust tip?

Toms does come with regular dual tip axel back, if you want their quad tips axel back, you need to match up with their rear diffuser

I found JCSPORTLINE diffuser on Amazon. It can accommodate quad tips exhaust and has pretty good price too. Has anyone tried this brand before?

Here is the link: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B016O7LDN0...95c4ef05df79_S
