Yeah, all I can tell u is it is loud, my phone sucked and it could not record all the high pitchs of the sounds, it was at least 50% louder in person. I guess the broken part was the x pipe. Because at the first, i only installed gtc axle back and it was okay, just like all other brands' exhaust, the xpipe really changed sound and everything, and it was a day and night difference

i think the cop was just being polite!
that doesn't sound like an exhaust it sounds like straight pipes and IMO it sounds terrible.

i had a dual exhaust installed on my truck at the muffler shop for 460 bucks that sounds way better than that.

it doesnt help that you have that reflective tape mod on your car either... the exhaust doesnt sound that bad but imo meisterschaft sounds better on v10's and v12's

LOL! Same, I'll be screaming bloody murder! :P

To the OP: as long as you like the sound and the exhaust, more power to you.

After looking at your video again, Im sorry I have to say this "Congrats on destroying your beautiful Lexus IS".
This is purely my opinion, You have reflective tape everywhere, on your wheels too. Looks too ghetto, looks like the cheap mod that you buy from autozone where people try to chrome out everything. They need to go. Plus, I think it is very distractive to other drivers at night.
2nd, exhaust sounds nasty in a bad way, it reminds me of a old 90s civic with cheap *** exhaust. I just think you completely destroyed your car. Making other Lexus IS look bad. You were wearing reflective shirt filming this LOL.

Hey this is what internet forums for, get criticized. You probably wanted peoples opinion, that's why you posted on a public internet forum.

I would be feel the same way if my neighbor does it, so around the town I always close the electronic valve inside the muffler, only open it up on the highways

This Exhaust is giving the wrong impression on people. First of all kudos for making a video that so many wanted to hear. However, OUT of all places to make and exhaust video, you chose a place that echos like a mother*** I mean come on, the f sport exhaust would be crazy loud in there too.

What this exhaust needs is a video on the street with AND without the valves open for a proper justification. Yes that Gs video was loud, but hasn't been shown with valves closed.
