Muffler delete should be easy. They bolt on almost right by the muffler so a pipe with a flange and youll be set. Ill try to get these tips installed soon. I have to take off the stock tips and then visit my local performance shop.

TIA!
HI CJBLAIR. Yes, the muffler hanger issue has been fixed. All IS systems will have the updated North American style hangers included.

How can you tell if a vendor has the updated version?

Jum3, The majority of inventory containing the systems with the previous style hangers has been depleted at our U.S. warehouse and our distributors. All recent shipments of the IS kits should have the USDM hanger version.

Finally had time and someone to weld the exhaust tips for me, x-force exhaust and eBay tips welded, incase I want it to be quiet, I have the option of switching the tips to the original xforce muffler or vice versa (this was done at my friends garage btw)

That looks deadly, that's exactly what I want to do.

Can you post a link to the auction for those tips? They are the perfect size!

its actually pretty quiet on the freeway, some drone but not something that'll bother me because I play my music loud and have a 12" sub. On the outside it's loud but not too loud.. I was scared at first because it might be onbonxious loud but I'm glad t didn't

With some recent negative experiences on eBay, I'm steering clear of them Amazon has them also:

Amazon Amazon


I'd much rather buy from Amazon.

But read the one review.
