LMS Intake/Exhaust ???
Whats everyones thoughts on these items and anyone have both ? I remember hearing about the intake but no word on the exhaust ? I'm curious to know whats going on with it...
I have the LMS intake and I've found out that (1) the engine does not upshift as quickly as it does stock automatically [as if you have the ECT on sport mode] which means faster acceleration and (2) a lot more engine noise when above 4k rpm which satisfy those that think the engine is too quiet. So, I feel that there is a little more advantage in terms of acceleration but you sacrifice a little bit of cabin noise. Who knows how well it adds 12-20 hp as some people have suggested/calculated.
As for the exhaust, still no word. I'd personally like to get something for looks, as a louder exhaust note will make the car too noisy for me. Function-wise, I don't think I'd care for extra power, as the IS350 has plenty already. But that's just my taste...

Need help deciding on intake or not. Just read my thread. I liked it at first, but when I got the dyno results I was very disappointed and the noise really got on my nerves. The guy I sold it too had it on his car for like a week and is already selling it. Just FYI
