Default time for an exhaust

Hey guys, I'm looking for an exhaust system for my 2006 IS250. Someone suggested that I should get Greddy or HKS. Which one do you guys prefer?

Do you like loud or quite?

If you want it on the quiet side, go for Greddy.

If you want it loud, go for HKS.

I've had greddy on my previous cars but on my IS350 I went with HKS and slap on some silencers ( no exhaust drone ) looks aggressive too.

HKS out of those 2, but I heard JoeZ is pretty good too.

I got HKS and I love it. If you can deal with the drone issue then it shouldn't be a problem.

HKS tips are not double walled. Look cheapish cause it's not thick.

just get fsport if youre only gonna do axleback. otherwise dont bother with midpipes or any of that stuff and just get a true dual like Joez or PPE. actually since youre an IS250, just get the Fsport. less of a headache when you want to sell the car and its double walled tips look much nicer. Sewell has a good discount for clublexus members and the lexus fsport promotion makes it an even better deal.

my $.02

thanks everyone for your input

i'm not really picky when it comes to the sound. i just don't want anything too obnoxious or quiet

i also forgot to mention that i'm a little tight on money. even though i want the best for my car, i cannot afford any top of the line brands
