That's not a 4" catback exhaust. It's a 2.5" catback exhaust with a 4" tip. Most the exhausts for the IS all perform the same. They'll just give you different tones. I would recommend you go with an HKS Carbon-Ti or GReddy SE if you want that look though. Those cheap ebay ones may change color after a while or rattle. You get what you pay for.
As for installation, do it yourself in your driveway. It'll take you 30 minutes if your bolts aren't seized to ****. If you take it to a shop it'll be anywhere from 40 bucks to 120 for install, depending on how much they like to rip you off.
The kit is a L-Tuned replica and the install and paint price will be different in each shop. It'll also depend on how much work is required to get the kit to fit. There have been some VIS kits that fit near perfect and some that have required extensive amounts of work. Once again, you get what you pay for.
its a 4 inch TIP. not a true 4 inch exhaust. kind of deceiving.
its basically a cheap replica of a HKS exhaust. dont buy cheap ****. do it right the first time or you'll end up having to pay twice to repair and replace
I cant lie I bought a cheapo exhaust from ebay and it bolted right on no fitment issue and it sound great, maybe not as loud as carbon ti which i really wanted but hey... some of us are ballin on a budget lol
No problems just sound like crap. I have a cheap 3in ebay OBX muffler on my 3in exhaust and it sounds amazing but I'm boosted. If your not boosted I would stay under 3in
