Default Greddy Sp2 + Mid-pipes

First of all, What are Mid-Pipes??? Sorry for the stupid question im still learning here.

Secondly what will i achieve having midpipes along with the Greddy Sp2?? What will i lose?? How much are they.

Looking to get them installed if they are going to make a difference in performance

It makes your car louder, particularly in the mid range where the intake and exhaust usually blend together. Spend the money for sound, not for the measly 1-2 HP.

Look on youtube for different sounds of exhausts and mid pipes. Brociouz and JoshIS408 have the Invidia mid pipe and have videos on Youtube. Hit them up.

^ AFAIK, no one else has done that combo. Why don't you be the first? I suspect it'll be pretty loud.

^^^ Yes. But I recommend supporting Club Lexus Vendors. You'll get better prices, too.

It won't be that loud. Greddy has always had good exhaust systems to regulate their sound.
