Default Intake/Exhaust 2015 IS250 suggestions and question

1. Which intake have you all had great experience with? I am looking for a nice sound.
2. Which exhaust do you all suggest? I have looked into Q300 and Ark GriP. How is the cabin drone and how loud are these on the exterior? Are there options for quieter exhaust now that i have read that the q300 is pretty loud.

Also, do you have to do anything with your CPU or electronics after these are installed? I also have a third party warranty for the next 5 years.

Thanks for any advice/suggestions.

1. AFe Takeda or maybe F Sport intake
2. Tanabe or F Sport axle back should be quiet enough
3. ECU self adjusts

1. aFe Takeda intake
2. Depends on your budget. Ark is about x2 more expensive than the Invidia.
3. No tune required.

Contact us with any questions and we'll get you some great prices as well.

the dry intake by takeda or the oiled? I know one is oiled and the other is not but what's the performance/sound difference? Also how often do you change your filter?

Dry or oiled is based on personal preference. A quick Google search will explain the difference. There is no difference in sound. They're lifetime filters.

However the dry one is a lot more popular.
