I own a 2009 lexus is250 and am looking to install a new exhaust system. Just looking for help if anyone could give me some good advice on what companies are good, what kind of exhaust to get, etc. Thanks
If you want loud, GET HKS! I had the F-Sport with the Invidia midpipes and it sounded good at low RPMS but when it got past 4-5k RPM I got a lot of rasp. Now with the HKS its a mean deep sound with zero rasp across the entire RPM range!
you only get rasp when you remove that catalyzers, that happens on most vehicles.
Well I originally had the Fsport exhaust and added the invidia midpipes (remove secondary cats). They made my car louder but raspy at higher RPMs. The HKS Hi-Power got rid of the rasp, so I think it was the Fsport. But without midpipes the Fsport sounds nice just not loud enough for me
Ok thanks..for the hks i heard that the tips were a little big for the is250 and that they dont look that good. Other than that ive also heard that its good to get intake with an exhaust system....any knowledge about that?

As for the tips being too big, its up to interpretation. I personally love the bigger tips because they stand out. The F-Sport exhaust tips look a bit too OEMish for my taste. Is it good to get an intake with an exhaust? Yeah for sound lol. Its not like it makes the exhaust "perform" better or anything like that.
Here are some pics of my HKS. Figure out for yourself if you like the tips or not
