Default Clips with Apexi Midpipe and stock mufflers?

I was seeing what options were available for an is250 exhaust and I planned to go with an Apexi midpipe with electric cutouts before the mufflers. I've found some good videos with the midpipe and a Remark axleback and I love it, but I just wanted to know if anyone has the midpipe with the stock mufflers (basically how the car would sound with the valves closed). There was another member that posted a video, but the phone falls over and it's hard to hear... Thanks guys!

It'll be a nice improvement over stock. Not too loud since the stock axle back will quiet it down.

Let us know if you'd like pricing.

I'm currently running the apexi midpipe and stock mufflers, its not very noticeable until you throttle and accelerate then it produces a deeper growl which sounds pretty nice. Just cruising around with normal driving it sounds like stock to me. Previously i had the full apexi catback system and it was droning like crazy.

that's why I wanted to get electric cutouts, so I could toggle the mufflers on and off depending on my mood or if the noise gets too loud lmao

Hey guys, i took some short in cabin clips, the audio is from my iphone so it may not be the best. I couldn't get anyone to record it from the outside for me. Since then, i put back on the Apexi axleback so i'm running the full Apexi catback system now. https://imgur.com/a/PvWyl7U

Please let me know if the link to the imgur videos work for you, if not i will try to upload them to Youtube or any suggested video hosting websites.

Thanks for the videos! From what I can hear, it's pretty similar to stock (except a bit louder and deeper). Does that sound about right? Since I plan to use exhaust cutouts to keep the volume down when needed, it would defeat the whole point if it's plenty loud with stock mufflers.
