I'm thinking about possibly getting some mufflers in the spring what would you guys recommend? I'm looking to spend about $300 for them but less is always better

 

you might want to edit the link soon...mods are most likely edit that soon .

the mufflers on the link are HKS "Style". which means its a look-a-like muffler and not genuine HKS. I have dual HKS Hiper universals on my car, and I LOVE the way it sounds. I paid $300 for each muffler, and another $200+ to get the mufflers installed. As for looks...its a little small compared to the other exhausts, but it sounds incredible to me. I always liked how the Blitz Nur Spec looked, and its around the same price, but a quick search on CL yielded a lot more positive ratings about the HKS.

i believe Greddy makes a bolt on exhaust for the 1st gens, Greddy MX or something like that. For about $800, you get this...



a complete bolt on, so you'll be saving a trip to the exhaust shop .

RMM also makes a bolt on exhaust kit, and there is also a sound clip of the exhaust on their page if i'm not mistaken.



Rod Millen exhaust sound

i don't know of anyone who went with the Rod Millen exhaust, so I can't help you there.

Besides those, i believe you other options are Tanabe, Borla, Magnaflows, and Apex...just off the top of my head. There are way more i believe, but those would most likely be viable options. unless you're planning on either going with a something something "Style" muffler which most likely is for looks & will end up DEcreasing HP...not to mention it could end up making your car sound like a mosquito . you could also opt to go the JDM way...
i hear quite a few companies in Japan make pretty impressive exhausts...

 

you can get MAGNAFLOW mufflers for $100 each....just have to pay extra $$$ for your piping....to become 2 1/4 inch in diameter.
these mufflers are canister, fully polished with 3.5 inch tip alrdy welded.

 

thanks guys i'm looking to go with something inexpensive for some looks and a bit of power. The magnaflow sounds like a good deal. Are you talking about the street series ones? Also would a 4" tip look too big on the lex?

Also how do the magna flows sound? not too loud i hope.

 

well i just went to that rmm site and took a listen and man I really like the sound of the hks hyper mufflers.

 

How about a JIC dual exhaust system. I know my buddy bought one but sold his GS for a second gen. He never installed it and is selling the full unit.

He's selling it for $650.00. He paid $900.00 for it with shipping. It's a real nice exhaust and a complete catback system.

 

I'm selling my Blitz NUR Spec mufflers, check out the club lexus marketplace i have pics there.
