This is great news, now I don't have to get them extended to fill in my l-sportline bumper.

Can I ask a dumb question? What is the "cannister" that everyone is referring to? Is that just another word for the tip? If the exhaust for the 300 was designed to reduce resonance, does that mean it will be a little softer than the one designed for the 400?
Also, the more I look at the pictures, the more it looks like the one designed for the GS 300 has a different length pipe that comes out of the muffler at a different angle. Is everyone sure that this will fit a GS 400?

For anyone in California, will I have to take these off and put stock mufflers back on for biennial smog checks? I'm guessing no because these were made by trd?? Any help appreciated.
Thanks

Just Brought Mine
I just briught mine i talked to luis and i asked him whats the difference from the borla, and the ltuned for the gs300, he said the ltuned have the longer canister to reduce resonance in side the car, unlike the borla's, also the ltuned is not a straight threw pipe threw the canister like the borlas, so that u wont lose no low end like i experienced with the borla.
Happy Birthday to me! 
I can't wait!

***update***
Hey guys just wanted to give an update on the orders of the exhaust.
Everyone who has ordered will up until now 6.29.06 2:00 pm PST will get there exhaust.
As of right now I am down to the low single digit quantity left. If you want to get yours, place your orders now, or call me directly at 310-522-2383.
We expected some good interest in the exhaust and are very surprised at how fast these are moving. As it stands now, the last remaining few should be gone today, so as soon as it is done I will post up when the GB will be closed.
