I agree with a few of the posts. Maybe too soon to really compare, HOWEVER, if I had to vote it would be a tie between the HKS and LMS. HKS has the full blessing of Lexus. In fact in my 2006 brochure, it shows the HKS system as an option from Lexus. This means a factory warranty and no risks, not that there really are any with an exhaust system.

I would love to hear the LMS a "true" dual pipe system with no Y joints. I have not found anyone in Arizona with one to test. If anyone knows of any Arizona or California Lexus shows or meets coming up, please post.

u know how a BMW 3 series or like a Z4 sounds like. i like that kinda sound. not too obnoxious. just a low hum. sounds like the Tanabe gets close enough to the "not too loud, yet not completely quiet" sound for me.

what u guys think?
