dang, does it rattle like crazy? My PPE headers were touching a bit of the heat shield so I had my tech slice a very small piece off, but the bolt had a lot of clearance from the headers.

and it was fun when people race thinking poor little kid with his 4 door civic, and then I would smoke them!!! now I will be the one getting smoke by kids on their civics...

Yep exactly! lol.. after 3 or so years now it was getting boring. Just sold my 2008 Civic Si sedan last week... great daily. Only reason i sold it is cause I want to get something more practical daily/backup for my parents to drive as well like an accord maybe...

I took the 2 14mm bolts from the header to the exhaust and used a pry bar to move the header a little and lossen up the 10mm bolt then I used a saw saw to cut it!

Mileage is no issue on any Lexus, the ISF is no different.

I just registered on the lexus owners site and was able to view what services were performed on my IS-F I just purchased. Also any concerns or suggestions from the customer and tech were listed as well.

Thanks for the information
