Borla, magnaflow, or flowmaster straight pipe exhaust?
I've been running Megan racing catback exhaust with the invidia midpipe for a while and it's loud for sure but there's too much drone inside the car if I'm doing over 65. I'm thinking about switching to a straight pipe exhaust but still running the midpipe but I don't know which one gives off a throatier and low tone sound if combined with the midpipe. If I do this, it will be a custom welded exhaust, not the actual product ordered from the company's site. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks!

Is there anything that will still be loud but won't drone? My friend's got a G37 with a full custom meistershaft exhaust and I don't think it drones at all but you can hear it from a good quarter mile away at least.

Here you go! My current set-up is an Invidia midpipe with no mufflers. It's too damn loud, going to put mufflers on next week. If you want a deep tone, cut off your Megan cans and put Magnaflow mufflers in place. This is probably the 8th exhaust set-up I've had and Magnaflows give off the deepest sound. I use to have HKS and Megan and it made it quiet and didn't sound deep at all.

I'd go with a Japanese exhaust such as Greddy or hks. Both will give you a deep roar with the midpipe. https://www.clublexus.com/forums/showthread.php?t=620447&styleid=15
Here's a link to my thread. If you go tomy YouTube channel you will also be able to view several other videos I made to show the drone in cabin. Hope it helps You can also try the tanabe medallion exhaust as it tends to be quiet with very little drone...

so the lowest toned exhaust setup that I can get with the least amount of drone is magna flow catback with the invidia midpipe? This will be my third time changing my exhaust and it's gonna cost me a bit so I don't want to feel like I wasted money if I do end up changing it lol

The f sport exhaust is actually too high pitched for me. I used to have a mustang so that's why most of the JDM exhaust systems out there for Lexus isn't low toned enough for me, my current setup was the closest I could get to being low toned but even now sometimes the drone is killing me and I can't hear my passengers talk or I have to blast my music at 15-20 volume to literally drone out the drone if that makes sense. My previous setup was worse (two flowmaster mufflers with stock exhaust) and my current setup is indeed louder and less drone but I'm pretty sure I can find something just as loud/louder with less drone.
