I don't think so. I think I am the only one in the U.S. with the Tanabe mid pipe for the IS. This setup is super loud and deep, no rasp what so ever. I love it. The midpipe deletes the secondary cats and has a resonator.

Yes. Sounds great I was looking for that sound. No raspy with a deep grawl. Like a loud version of a tanabe.

Yeah I am going see how loud the exhaust is after a few thousand miles and decide wether or not to put my stock mid pipe back on. I got the tanabe mid pipe for free when I did R&D with tanabe so if I don't decide to keep it I can sell it

How much louder would you say the exhaust overall is now with midpipe vs just having fsport.

I don't know because I have not tried it yet but when you listen to other videos with just the f sport mine is a lot louder and deeper.
