Hello everyone! I am a proud new owner of a 2017 lexus is200t f sport and am new to the Lexus community. So I'm looking to upgrade my exhaust system in the most minimal way possible... Seems like there are multiple parts of an exhaust system you can upgrade, but I'm clueless on what each part does (i.e., down pipe, straight pipe, muffler, etc.). I want to have a deep sexy rumble that is relatively quiet. Nothing too flashy.. AND I also want to keep my stock exhaust tips since the new 2017 model comes with a nice rear bumper diffuser that contours to the stock tips. Any suggestions and advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

I would suggest a mid pipe

Do you have a specific brand that you recommend? Just to give you an idea of what I'm looking for... I really like the sound of the old infiniti g35's. that deep, sexy, quiet rumble.

Well since you want to keep the factory axle back, I think any mid pipe would do the trick

To get the specific Infiniti sound, I would think the axle back would need to be changed

When you say axle back is that the exhaust tip? cus thats the only thing i dont want to change.

The axle back is about 2-3' of piping, muffler, and tips

Does that mean if you change one you have to change all? Is it not possible to change piping and not tips? Or muffler without changing tips?

You don't have to

Quite a few people have done a muffler delete but that requires cutting and welding and IMO it won't give a low rumble

I have yet to see anyone who can replicate that Infiniti exhaust note. Sounds perfect, very distinct.
