now f-sport charges a premium but you get to retain factory warranty and get better performance. if anything breaks, you are covered because it is a lexus part, was installed by lexus mechanics.
and if you consider that only f-sport makes sways for the GS, it's a no brainer that you will get better performance.

I think the fact that Lexus backs the parts and also designed the parts is enough to inspire confidence in the parts for me. They are all competitvely priced ( relatively)

Agreed. I will try my best to support Lexus and F-sport parts so they continue to build and hopefully expand parts.

i just got the f-sport intake today and installed it..
it can cost less if you just buy the joe Z intake pipe w/ drop-in filter. Performance wise, there's not much difference imo.. but like mentioned above, i like the idea of retaining factory warranty, just in case.. i prob didn't get this intake if it wasn't on sale, 390 for just intake pipe and drop-in filter is too much...

I was going to start a post like this myself. For example is there any difference between a f-sport exaust and a regular one? I know that when I had a corvette it was a major difference between the corsca pace car exaust and the stock one also supposed to added a little HP too. Sewell lexus deal is a great deal and don't want to miss that if I am going to upgrade. But what is worth it? I don't want to go down the street with a loud pipe like some ricer car

Also has any installed the new f-sport exhaust? Does it now sound like the ISF (constant deep hum) or does the sound only kick in when you punch it? I like the how quiet the GS is normally and would not want to ruin that but a deep boom when you hit the gas would be great. This being my first real performance car, I might be asking for the impossible.

I'll be doing the same. I already got the tanabe medalion and i Love it. I know some are very cautious about warranty...but the tanabe is an axleback system...there is no way it could effect warranty in my mind.
