Not bad, not amazing.

Anyways, I'm now running PPE Headers with my custom 2.5" pipe with magnaflow cats in line. I have an Ark GRiP on the way. That will be my final exhaust on the car, and itll sound amazing while not being ricey loud.
Was that just the axleback or did you have more done? Not overly thrilled with the sound if thats just the axleback.

Just the axelback. I had cutouts installed but they were closed at the time. I think the design of the muffler might have been different. The quad tip rev9 I had was a typicall muffler shape, similar to stock. Didnt look like the Ark clone.

Thanks, hadn't even heard of Rev9 until now and didn't know anyone here had tried it. I don't think ARK makes an axleback only, so it'd be hard to compare directly. Perhaps you had a prototype? Let me know if anyone else wants to pay for trying exhausts, lol.

I can't speak for this car, but I ran a custom exhaust with vibram 3" high flow mufflers/resonators on my built motor turbo 350z and had amazing results. They make quality stuff.

Since the Tanabe is back ordered, I pulled the trigger on the RC350 Rev9 axel back exhaust for my 2017 IS350. Can report back after I install it in July.

The ark is amazing paired with the PPE headers. Sounds awesome, nice deep throaty sound, no rasp. I do have a leak which is mildly annoying that i need to have fixed but other than that it’s awesome!
