Straight Pipe/ Exhaust on 2017 is200t
How's it going? This is my first time posting on here so not sure if it is in the right place.
I just got a 2017 is200t fsport and want to make it louder. I have seen two exhaust systems the Q300 and the Apexi. I spoke to a few people and said to just put a straight pipe on it. Will putting a straight pipe harm the car at all and will it sound good and not like a beat up Honda. The car is also lease so I want to make sure that whatever I get done I can switch back once the lease is done. Thanks a lot.

You're probably looking at 1200 for a full cat back and maybe 600 for just an axle back
Axle backs have even more brands available

I would start on YouTube and then try finding people on the forum with the setup you liked to hear it in person

Apexi
Invidia

Best Axle Back for IS200t
How can i make my 16' IS200t loud/deeper without spending $1200? Keep in mind the car is a lease so don;t want to cut and weld anything either. I heard axlebacks go for about $600, which one should i be looking at?
Any recommendation? I hate how the IS200t doesnt sound mean at all.

i installed this week the invidia q300 axle back on my is350, i like how it sound, its almost like stock just more aggressive, i dont hear anymore the stock intake resonator, i would just wish it was a bit louder tho, i was thinking to put the invidia midpipe but it will sounds way to loud for my taste since i like quality sound, my uncle has a maserati and those are great sounding cars its sad i cant make it sound like one haha

Since its a lease you can go back to OEM easily.

The welds are done well and it looks great unless you aren't a fan of the blue tips (can be easily removed)
You can also add a tsudo or invidia midpipe if you want it louder which is about the same price as the axle back itself
Sorry, I just had to censor some parts. Just ignore the silly drawings (Random AF Cats!!)

Am running the Invidia Q300 plus the Invidia Mid pipe on my IS200t, and honestly it only adds a bit of depth to the tone but almost no noise, also it does add a bit of a drone inside especially if your sitting in the back but that could be due to the downpipe's catalizer
I like it since it keeps low profile and same time gives the performance I am looking for
