Wow I just ordered the Joe Z exhaust a few days ago thinking it would still be a while before this was ready. Valves and coatings are a bit more than I was looking to spend (as expected) but I'd definitely considered the base system w/cats. Oh well. At least mine is on the way so no wait

Is PPE gonna post any sound clips of the different exhausts? I would like to hear the basic system vs the top of the line system

^^^^I don't believe any of the exhaust suppliers have supplied sound clips. It's left to the buyer's when some units get in the field. I'll post clips when I get the new mufflers.

I'd say in this case it is a bit different. The entire selling point to this exhaust, and reason it is so expensive is sound. People will want to hear it more so than others(especially because it is new). Plus showing off what they accomplished will sell exhausts.

You're right. Right now, the only video is of the prototype system on Page one of this thread. At this time, no other video is available. When I have the production version of the mufflers installed, I will post another sound clip.

That would be great. I am actually local, and would love to maybe check one out in person if possible. Are you going with the standard version or dual mode?

I am really on the fence about installing my PPE headers because I don't want the car too loud.

Would definitely like to get some quality video of the exhaust in both modes. Regardless of whatever's standard for the IS-F aftermarket, any good manufacturer should be able to borrow a GoPro and a mic for an afternoon.

Message heard loud and clear When the production mufflers are installed on my F, will take quality sound clips both inside and from the rear of the vehicle. You guys are 100% correct. The PPE exhaust system is about Sound as well as Power.

Unknown at this point, but I'm sure it won't be lighter than the stock system with all the additional piping and electronic valves parts.
See post 33 of this thread. https://www.clublexus.com/forums/8217198-post33.html

With that said and depending on how it sounds I just may sell my Borla for this setup later in the summer. I like the thought of having the ability to switch between quiet and a roar. Hook me up Lou!

I will have the product page up here in the next few days or you can order via PPE direct. Plan is to get sound clips and detailed products shots as soon as possible.
