Cool Custom Magnaflow Axle-Back Exhaust

I'll add this in my Build Thread but I thought this needed special attention. I worked with a local exhaust specialist to design and build a Magnaflow true-dual axle-back exhaust that would enhance the exhaust note of the 3IS in particular the sweet buttery smooth 2.5L V6.

We've narrowed down the right components and design. I'll have the final setup and details this weekend. Here's a pic of the 95% completed build.

From my understanding, I think every other country has the USB color option other than the States.

Nice exhaust Corrado congrats. I just picked up my is 350 AWD Fsport from the same dealership today. Obsidian / Rioja Red. I was wondering if this voids the warranty or they flag your car or something? I've heard many mixed things from several people I have asked. I've also read several things online however they were all from people in the US.

Thanks. Looks and sounds great in person especially compared to my camera phone video. I've leased 4 Lexus' in the last 6 years at the same sales rep and same dealer without any issue. I always return the cars before lease ends and they value it against what the buy-out is vs the trade-in black book value is and I usually break about even. Some of my cars had minor mods but admittedly, this Lexus is more modded (intake, exhaust...) but I still have all the stock components for an easy swap back. As for warranty, never an issue as these vehicles are so darn reliable! Feel free to PM me to continue this discussion.

Agree, the sound still has that Lexus smoothness too it, yet just one to two notches louder, deeeper, and more burly without being overly obnoxious our loud. There are a handful of welds, but nothing unexpected. I'll post more pics this weekend.

Wink VIDEO - Magnaflow IS - startup, full and moderate acceleration

The MagnaFlow axel-back in all its glory!

I absolutely love the smooth deep and burly sound without the rasp and over-the-top volume.

Tell me what you think or
