Question on catbacks for GS430
Hey guys is there a website where I can see all the exhaust options for a 2001 GS430.
I don't want anything that is too loud... but I want something that would rumble nicely when you gun it... I guess my best comparasion is to something like a SL55 AMG or a little louder.
basically something that doesn't take away the fact that its a lexus when you are just driving normally.
Someone was telling me that there is a thread where there are a bunch of sound clips of diff. exhaust... where can I find it.?

Here is the thread: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=158895
I had L-Tuned before I got the J.I.C. Magic exhaust.....a bit loud but the sound is GREAT and at WOT, it is amazing....quites down a bit but has a good rumble to it.

Here is some shots of my car with Borla's. I think the Borla's are probably the least loud of most of the aftermarket exhaust's.

I also liked the fact that the Borla's looked like enlarge stock exhaust. I did not want some big round exhaust sticking out past the bumber. But everyone has their opinion's on this. I just thought the Borla's were the most "stock" looking. Good luck.

Come to the meet next weekend in Charlotte and there will be at least one type of exhaust (Borla) for you to listen to, possibly others. Click link in my sig

Exhaust
TexasGS convinced me to get the Borla's. I just got them today actually and will put them on this weekend. They are not to overbearing and doesnt make your car seem like a "Drag" racer either. Nice rumble, no resonation in the cab and overall a nice system.
I think that you need to decide for yourself though and if you possibly could make the meet in Charlotte, you would get a chance to see these exhaust's first hand.
The other thing that Bill (TexasGS) reminded me of is if you get a exhaust system and dont like it, there is probably someone else on here that would and it would be easy to sell.
