Default '01 GS430 exhaust questions

hello there people,

The exhaust of my 2001 Lexus GS430 broke in 2 on the Y-pipe.
now I want to replace the exhaust, but of course there are many options....
I saw the Megan-racing Y pipe, and that looks great and isn't expensive

But I'm also looking for cat-back exhaust, due to the poor state of the rear mufflers.

The Tanabe Medalion Touring looks great but... I can't find a proper picture of it.
they say its Cat-back, but the only pictures I find you see the rear mufflers and 2 pipes which replaces the resonators. so no pic of the Y-pipe...

Does anyone of you have some photo's or pictures of the complete cat-back?
What is your experience with the Tanabe?
I drive on a regular base with a trailer on the hook, so I want the exhaust quiet, no drones or resonations inside the car.

Does the Tanabe sound the same as the stock exhaust inside the car?

The Tanabe Medalion does not contain the Y-Pipe. On the GS430 the Y-Pipe also contains a cat. Get the Magnaflow Y-Pipe with cat and the Tanabe Medalion and thats all you need.
