Axle back f sport exhaust and f sport cold air intake to make the car louder?, any suggestions. I just want it to have an even more louder sound from the exhaust? perhaps a high flow cat? anyone know what high flow cats would go good with my model??? 2015 f sport

It is a big trend with the f-sport items. Most go for them because its warrantied by Lexus, expectations of extremely much better sounds, or looks good (intake). But it seems like a lot of people are disappointed with the purchase.

Lexus should've put these items in as factory in the f-sport package..

I am however also getting feedback from people as well saying to let the coating break off first that it gets louder. Right now once im on the highway and stuff it starts sounding nice and deep but like if im parked and I rev it its just not enough for me I guess its preference at the end of the day. I want that final noise at the end of the rev, not so much a go cart sound like removing resonator lol but I want more sound to it.

Yea its a close race right now for me man which is why I wanted to join this forum to begin with, perspective and obviously other people that have had it. If I don't sell it im gonna add the midpipe, high flow cat and take it from there.
