Default Test Pipe gains?

Did a little looking around on the web and couldn't find anywhere to buy a test pipe for an IS350. My buddy in an S2k had a million different options, I find it hard to believe that none of the companies that make exhausts for us decided not to make tests pipes. Or am I just stupid?

Do any companies make test pipes, or does it have to be a custom job?

and if anyone has thrown one on what will the gains be on a stock exhaust?

and as to gains- roughly 1 hp. Really.

It's an insanely bad way to spend money if power is your goal, it's a mod for noise.

Last I knew Tanabe didn't actually sell one... they built a couple prototypes but didn't put it into production.... did that change?
