Default Exhaust

For anyone out there that have an exhaust system catback preferably, which one do you recommend and how do you like it as compared to stock, i honestly dont like the look of the stock exhaust tips and wanted to have quad tipped ones but wanted to have an exhaust done as well. And after replacing that do you get the drowning noise in the 2k RPM or when you cruise in the motorway ?

You'll need to change the diffuser:

The most popular catback systems are the Invidia, Joe z, apexi, and I think recently borla has gotten in the game?

I have the joe z. It drones a bit when cruising mainly at speeds above 40mph. It's loud. But I like it.

People say the Invidia will not drone and is a bit more raspy.

A lot of members have agreed that the Invidia midpipe with the Joe z axle back is the best of both worlds (deep growl, no rasp, no drone).

To do quad tip exhaust you'll have to swap in a different diffuser (Lexon is popular and so is GS-F)

Did you get the catback installed all at once or did you do the axleback first?

Wondering how the Joe z sounds with just the axleback.

All at once. Lots of YouTube videos of the Joe z axle back set up

I see a lot of them being IS350 setups.

Can I expect similar sound from the GS350?

Yeah, same engine I think.

I'm looking to get an axle back too. I wanted some more noise at low RPM's, but at the same time don't want any in cabin drone while cruising. I narrowed it down to Invidia and Tanabe, with Invidia being the cheaper of the two. Might have to check out JoeZ.
