Thanks everyone for the compliment!
Yep, I get the best of both worlds I think. It's loud when I am on it, and still a Lexus when I need it to be.
Sorry buddy, this one is all custom work, but the good news is it's cheaper than buying anything pre-made.
It's really difficult to tell because some of that effect is due to the loudness, so the only way to know is to dyno it. But, if you want it to go faster, then a supercharger or turbo is really what you want to get.
If you're in Austin, then it'd be worth a drive for sure. This guy offers be both aluminum and stainless steel options. The aluminum is 1/2 the price, but does not come with a life time warranty. Since the cost is relatively inexpensive, I opted to with stainless steel to get the lifetime warranty.
By the way, his shop does custom tuning, as well as adding superchargers, and turbos. They are working on a GT500 that produces 700HP at the wheels. It looks stock from the outside, but man under the hood it's a different story.
I have more pix of the installation process if anyone wants to see. He has just sent them to me yesterday, so I just saw them for myself as well. Man his work is just incredible.

Yes, the muffler plays a huge part in regards to the tone of the sound. Removing the resonators just make it fuller than before. They wanted to swap out the mufflers too, but I insisted on keeping the Tanabe because I really like the tone they produce. Still waiting for your sound clip Rider...

im looking into doing this with my gs430 but i want to put these small resonators before the x-pipe so my car wouldnt have as loud of a sound but it would still be agressive. what u guys think
