Default Joe Z Exhaust with Welded Quad Tips? (UPDATED WITH PICS)

Hello fellow members. I've been trying to search but have not found much on aftermarket/universal round quad tips welded onto our ISF. I currently have the Joe Z exhaust and love the tone of it, so not looking to change out my exhaust system. I've never been a big fan of the stock IS-F Oval Quad Tips and was wondering if anybody on here has recommendations of tips i can get welded onto the current Joe Z exhaust. I love the looks of the Greddy titanium tips.

UPDATE: Got universal Quad tips installed today. Had a local muffler shop put together a pipe from the axelback.

It would be a big job. The JoeZ muffler has only one outlet per side. To do what you are suggesting, would mean plugging the existing outlet and adding two more. I don't know what the internals of the JoeZ muffler are, but I would bet that it is routed to the single outlet. I assume it could be done with different mufflers, one's with twin outlets. But then, the new muffler would have to be positioned so the tips would exit in the right place. IMHO, it's undoable.

Yes, it would definitely be universal tips with a twin outlet. Something like this? Do you know if that would be possible? Assuming that the connector diameter is the same length.

You're in luck lol. My friend has that same exact universal tip on his 2011 ISF with JoeZ Exhaust system. Here you go. If you have any questions you can DM him on Instagram @rs_isf

Wonder if these would also work on the X-Force system since it seems to be patterned very similar to the Joe-Z. Does anyone know if the "blue" can be polished off, it looks like they only offer them blued but I am not a huge fan of the look.

Is your friend a CL member? I'm sure many of us would be interested in seeing and/or hearing about his setup.

Judging by what the guy said in his post it looks like he just cut off or is not using the JoeZ mufflers anymore and is straight pipe from the JoeZ resonators to the tips. I tried to see if I could catch a glimpse of muffler in the pic but it's hard to tell. I want to say I do NOT see JoeZ muffler underneath there.


It would be neat if someone made some like the LEMS OEM titanium tips
