$350^ damn you can sell that easily for 600-700 bucks haha but yeah F sport is too quiet imho. I had the HKS hi power before and it had drone on highway but sounded great. I now replaced the resonator with an aftermarket one and it really opened it up and i get compliments on how it sounds every week! I will upload a sound clip when i get a chance.

f sport exhaust question
Hey guys I have a 2012 IS350 AWD and just installed the f sport exhaust with the intake. I love the new sound it makes, but after reading up on posts people are saying that the sound will get quieter after about 500-800 miles, which I do not want. For the poeple that have this set up my first question is, how much quieter will it get? Will I actually notice it or is it very minimal? Also if it is noticebly quieter is there a way to get it back to the sound when I first installed it? a resonater delete? or maybe adding PPE headers? I would add a mid pipe, but they don't make thoes for AWD cars. I don't want it too loud just would like to get it back to as close as possible to the sound it was when I first installed it. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

I made a short video last day for anyone who is interested in the sound of the F Sport Exhaust. Hope it helps for anyone that is in the market for one

Cons:
After driving mixed city roads and the highway, I actually think I will be reverting back to stock. This thing is loud, even with all of the windows closed. The loudest is from 1500-2500rpm. It's a loud throaty sound but its really distracting to the passenger and consequently any conversations. I would not recommend for the working professional who has to drive clients or their bosses around (this is an individual preference of course on the threshold you are willing to tolerate)
