Congrats on the F! A lot of members pair the Joe Z/ PTS exhaust with the Joe Z intake. This has proven to add a good deal of horsepower for just a bolt on. Throw on some Sikky or PPE headers, and it sounds even greater and adds even more hp. The only downside to Joe Z/PTS (if one can consider it to be) is that it's catless. If I'm not mistaken, Borla is the only afternarket one that's available with the cat back. Some like it, while others don't. But I've never heard of a bad comment regarding Joe Z from the top notch craftsmanship to the intoxicating sound produced.
The IS F is pretty rare, and it's still a treat to see one on the road every now and again...and even better to hear them open up that second intake.

Congrats. Traded my 350 in '08 and have never looked back.

My bad. I was thinking of the Borla axle-back at the time. But you're right, the cat back does not. Both are viable options for the OP to purchase, but the Joe Z seems to be one most favored.

I made the exact same upgrade earlier this year. The F is such a different car all around, hopefully your enjoying the upgrade as much as I am. Congrats, glad you stayed in the Lexus family.
