The header alone will not give you that sound your looking for. Depending on your combination of mid pipe or exhaust setup that wear it really comes into play. I have PPE on my IS350 with stock mid pipe, Fujistubo exhaust and its just noticeable over stock.

^^^^Yes you can, the PPE Headers exit in the same spot as the stock exhaust manifolds.

I'd suggest some sort of intake to go with it. I know what sound you're NOT looking for. That'll depend on your exhaust (if you choose to get an aftermarket).

Sick thanks I'm trying to get a hks exhaust system but I just don't want it to be too loud is there anything I can buy to quiet it up a bit if I was to have the full hks system with the Ppe headers my AEM intake and Mabey some sort of aftermarket mid pipe? I want it to be catback cuz I hear that a catback exhaust is better than a axle back.

I think the HKS will be too loud and maybe raspy for you. Maybe the Tanabe with all the rest you want

+1 on everything said above. You could also inquire directly with PPE regarding their exhaust systems. They have a couple options to include an exhaust that allows you to manually change the loudness of it. I couldn't be happier with my PPE parts.
