Default IS200t Exhaust

Is there a good exhaust out for the IS200t? I've heard the ARK exchaust but it sounds awful, well doesn't make much of a difference over stock. I understand the IS200t is 4cyl. but is there anything out there worth looking at? Looking for a deep tone, something that actually sounds like an aftermarket exhaust rather than stock.

The Ark Performance exhaust is pretty loud, nothing as quiet as stock.

There aren't many options for the IS200T, only Invidia and Ark Performance.

Let me know if I can quote you a price on either.

From the the videos I've heard, I can't tell the difference. What kind of sound is it? And what do you recommend? Invidia of ARK?

I'd just leave it stock, guys. The stock exhaust systems are typically very expensive high quality pieces. On your typical axle back, you won't see any gains and your car will just sound r1cey particularly on a 4 cylinder.

I don't care for gains. I care for better sound. And that was my question, anything out there that sounds good and not ricey.

The Ark is way louder than the stock exhaust for sure haha. The stock exhaust is literally prius level.

a slightly more expensive option would be the APEXI EVOLUTION axle back system. I think it sounds pretty decent.
