Default PPE Headers / F-Sport Exhaust / F-Sport Intake

I was wanting to know if anyone has this setup? My wife is complaining that it is to loud. Does anyone know if I add a MagnaFlow resonator will it reduce the sound?

If you decide to take out the headers I'm sure you could find a number of us here in GA who would be willing to trade you for the stock headers + some cash. Just a thought.

Yea only issue is who would pay the guys cost to have them taken off. Install Ranges from 4-6 hundred on the headers.

The real question is do you have a stock midpipe or did you go with something like the Invidia or Megan midpipe?

If you didn't, then I would question the benefit of the header install if you are just bottlenecking your exhaust system with the restrictive stock midpipe...just a thought

Adding a Magnaflow resonator to the stock midpipe will only increase the sound...

And another option is to come out to some of the local meets and shows...there are a number of 2IS members in Atlanta that get together often, and we all have different exhaust setups you can check out.

I thought I'd add to this specific thread with a 7200 RPM rev sounding video that I recently made with my IS350 in case anyone wanted to hear this setup. This is with the PPE EL headers, F-Sport Exhaust, F-Sport Intake, and the RR Racing ECU tune.
