Shaun, I'm definitely very satisfied with the Borla for the sound and performance. I'm interested in hearing how a Meistershaft cat-back sounds like in person. If any other RCF with any other exhaust setups other than Borla or Apexi, I'd be interested in hearing it. Good idea on keeping the RCF - you'd lose so much in the resale. Also if you get the GSF now, your wife would drive it more than you! Haha. The GSF does looks crazy good though! Props to Dennis and Bob on doing a great job with their choice in color! Love that white - almost as good as Ultrasonic Blue.

Headers, Intake (cosmetic), Coils and Wheels are on my list within this year, I hope to at least have a few of those checked off. Haha.

yeah, that's what I would do, your RCF is so clean and you would end up losing money too if you trade it in. Pretty sure the GSF prices will drop in 2 years. Are you drop on coilovers?

Added Dennis, Bob and Ahmed to the first post. Should be exciting to see how this list grows!

For some new content:
I was at Bombshells Meet on Tuesday - good turnout as always. Parked with a couple of ISF owners in VIP area.
One of the YouTubers got my peel out on camera. Sounded good and loved his reaction.


In-car video of me leaving Bombshells


In-car video of me, KRISH (FBO ISF), and a Shelby GT500 (700whp+) driving through a tunnel


First pull at: 0:22 (hit rev limiter and made all that noise)
Second pull at: 0:40 (gear change at 0:45)

I was following a FBO Lexus ISF and following me was a 700whp+ GT500.

Hey Guys,

Currently the owner of a custom wrapped RCF in the Spring area, and finally registered on this site. Sad I missed the meetup yesterday, but will definitely be at the next one!

I'm also in the process of twin turboing the RCF Avis a rear mount system, if anyone wants information on that, let me know as well.

As far as mods go, just the basics with a Borla exhaust and PPE headers. (Note, there is almost no sound difference, Lexus did a good job with the current RCF headers) and a tune from RR.

Coming from a FBO 14' Genesis Coupe I absolutely love this car.
Currently working with Vivid on a meisterschaft header back.
Will do a few minor aesthetics.
Then most likely coils & wheels later this summer.

fantastic color wrap! I have the factory USB and love it but that matte blue looks awesome.

That would sound amazing. Let me know once you get the exhaust setup done - I would love to hear it in person. I assume you mean Meisterschaft catback right? Headerback to me means headers and everything else.
If you are getting headers, which headers are you getting?

Now you're speaking my language. I have been interested in a turbo setup on this car since before I bought it. I have no interest in a supercharger. I look forward to seeing how it goes... If I like it, I will likely follow suit.
