Default F-sport air intake and exhaust

Not much of a modder but was thinking about eventually getting these for my 10 IS C 350. Besides the change in engine/exhuast tone, is there any benefit from them. What's the change in HP and MPG? I'd probably do the intake first and the exhause later (probably much later).

(sorry if this has been covered before, did a search and went through 5-7 pages of search and nothing stood out to me)

You will not notice any HP or MPG change.

you'll notice nothing on the butt dyno. if you're really that curious you can dyno it. you'll probably see a bit of gains.


mostly just noise that you'll notice.

Just installed the exhaust at Westminster, definitely sounds amazing. When I first heard Pete fire it up, I couldn't help but smile. haha

Damn that's a lot. I might just get the intake for the sound, but 300 for sound is expensive to me.

From one ISC owner to another, I will tell you that it does sound quite good (top up or down) and gives the car a totally different character.....makes it seem more sporty.
