For those that did just a muffler delete (nothing else), is there any drone?

Well I don't think I am going the muffler delete route... I have a lease, and I don't want any issues with welding and they dare saying anything that I hacked their system up.

You guys with muffler deletes - did you buy or lease?

Seems other than that there are these options:

F-Sport (Lexus)
Joe Z
Tanabe (won't ship till 1/3/16)
Magnaflow
Ark

Does the ark system fit awd model? And the magnaflow sounds almost stock it's so quiet, maybe a bad recording. Has anyone heard the magnaflow against the Tanabe. Tanabe is nice but I do not feel like waiting till January.

I was at the muffler shop today trying to do a muffler delete and they told me i cannot keep the stock tips, that it is welded to the muffler. Is this true ? I like the stock tips :/

This is the best sounding RC 350 ive heard yet, just a simple muffler delete. This is the setup i want.

You're right, this sounds awesome...

Do you think there will be any issues when taking it to Lexus for service without mufflers?
