Currently looking to buy a mid pipe for my 2018 Lexus IS300 AWD and was wondering if anyone can give their honest opinion on the Invidia midpipe (HS13LISAMIP)

I currently have a magnaflow axelback but am looking for more sound (and performance if possible). Is there a midpipe you would recommend over the invidia?

Any help would be appreciated!

 

Hey,

You only have two options for your midpipe, the Invidia or the Apexi.

The Invidia is your cheaper and more popular option.

I believe invidia midpipe may be the loudest of the bunch. I've enjoyed it a lot although either my exhaust has gotten quieter or i got used to it now.

 

I have the Apexi for my RWD and I love it! Thanks to Josh on convincing me that it won't be too obnoxiously loud like other cars I see around.....

I get a lot of compliments because the nice deep growl I get with the Apexi. A catless downpipe will be worth for extra loudness too but it's pretty expensive if you can't find a used one.

 

I've heard of some people having issues with an exhaust leak with the invidia mid pipe. Other than that, it sounds great

 

Cannot confirm myself, but others have indicated that the Tsudo catback is very similar to Invidia's, and indeed they even look near-identical aside from Tsudo using 2.5" piping vs. Invidia's 2.36". The Tsudo is made for RWD only but it can be modified to fit AWD by modifying one section, and even at that will be less expensive than most others out there. No leaking issues either, as the build quality is very good.
