Default Best Exhaust for a is350

Hey everyone I was just thinking of installing a new exhaust for my 2011 IS350 and I need some help/guidance. I’m looking for something that sounds deep and doesn’t make my car sound like a fart can. Idk if I should switch just the exhaust or get a new midpipe also please help, thanks

Agreed ^. An axleback is a solid start. I have the Tsudo which is deep , loud enough, and no rasp ( fart effect)

Tanabe exhaust sounds stock + some weight loss.

That's good for me.

A friend of mine has this set up and it sounds great. He’s also in the dmv.

I'd suggest the Tanabe for the deeper sound. The F sport exhausts sound pretty good as well.

My setup is the Tanabe axleback and a Vibrant resonator

lol suruga speed is stupid expensive... i had a quote for like way over $3k for the cat back and is not a bolt on, you have to cut & weld the oem mid pipe or have a custom pipe made between the headers to their mid-pipe...

^I know! But the OP didn't say there was a budget or cap in the price. Title is "Best Exhaust for a is350", and in my opinion, this exhaust delivers.

Honestly it's all based on your preference. All you're going to get out of it is sound, no real gains.

I personally went with Tanabe axle back because it wasn't super loud and has absolutely no drone. I drove another 350 with I want to say HKS and it was louder and there was a drone cruising in 6th gear.

I got the Ark Exhaust and honestly I love it. It's quiet when I want it to be and can get loud when I drive aggressively.
