Does anyone have the same problem??
Does anyone have the same problem with ES300. I know that ES300 is not a race car, but I really wants my 98 ES300 to go little faster on the second to third gear. Sometimes I really don't know if my car really have 200hp.. because sometimes I race some car who have little over 150hp and I really have to push it to the limit.. Also after I got two apxi N-1 and injen intake. how much hp do you guys think I was getting>>>??? really need help.. ES300 people really need to get together and find parts to impove our car..... Thankz guys......

Yes, we all like to have our cars go a bit faster with each upgrade. Why do you want 2 mufflers? You won't gain much in HP. But if you like to have both and the intake, you will probably gain at most 5-HP at high rpm (6000ish), and will lose some low end. As much mentioning has occurred, the TRD supercharger should fit on your '98 and the included EBC (electronic boost controller) should work as well, however, neither have been verified.

The EBC is included in the TRD S/C kit already, so you don't need to spend more for it. There was one guy who had 2 mufflers on his Solara, and he did feel some loss of power at the lower rpm end compared to one. But it sure did look nice. I think you will be fine just with one muffler, besides, you wouldn't have to alter the exhaust piping.

Thankz.. it's possible for you to post some of your sub EGainer. 
I like to see how you set up yours... and by the way you sure can get intake for your car.. it sounds nicer, cause sometimes when you drive around with Lexus, it's so comfortable sometimes you don't feel like you are driving... and that is why I went put up some nice Noise to keep you aweak..... weapon-r and injen make some nice looking intake for you....

some more speakers.... this set up is to save you space in your back. if people like me who need their trunk sometimes... all I did is make a box that will fit and use all the space in the far back to have room for other stuff...
