I spoke to Luis from carson toyota he told me that the exhaust is being produced now and he's expecting a November 15 ship out date. Luis told me I placed order#2. Who placed the first order I wonder? Crazy I know you get the first one.

For those of us in Cali and don't want the hassle of dealing with smog issues, can the x-pipe for the JoeZ IS350 street version with the high flow cats be used with this exhaust system? Or would you recommend just getting high flow cats welded on ourselves?

^ Hello

The X-pipe we designed works with our Full True Dual Exhaust system.
We have no plans to make any other X-pipes to work with other systems.

For example: You would not want to install an X-pipe design into an axle back system that has a Y connector on the rear section.

^^ Hello

We decided to make this system with out the Secondary CATs to keep the cost down and Rwhp up...
The Primary OEM CATs are doing most of the SMOG work.
None of the IS350 exhaust components will work in conjunction with the IS-F.
Pipe diameter and routing is very different.

You may install your own High Flow CATs, but they are a bit costly and they will slightly decrease rwhp.
Are SMOG checks in CA, 5 or 6 years from new car purchase date??

Depending on who is doing the SMOG (trained tech, etc), besides passing the sniffer test, the tech would usually do a visiual inspection as well.

So from the dyno results I am seeing an up to 5whp gain from the intake (333-338)? Curious how much more hp you can get with a drop in like blitz/k&n?
