Default toyota TTE exaust for gs300

Lexus parts has this thing clearenced down to $800 and I have a 06 gs 300 AWD. my car has 95K miles on it and like 5 years old. What can this thing do if I get it over my stock? stock mufflers wear out? will it give me more horse power? or is it even worth it? It cost $375 to install this thing at sewell lexus. This has the dual tips and smaller ones I think.

If it fits your car do it yourself not a hard install at all.

broke down and bought that *****, that guy above me was after it so I had to do something in a hurry since there is only 1 left. I hate spending money but got to make the car look good since having to put wheels on it. i got a quote for $100 or so to put the exaust on and then bought the tte rear skirt, have to find someone to do that later on.

I saw the post didn't want to tell the guy where it was because I needed time to think about it. really wanted to put this money toward a rolex watch or something since it won't lose its value when I stick this thing on it isn't worth anything after it

will let you know, still not sure if I want this thing or not, if you get it must get the rear sklrt also and will sell for what I paid for it and won't even open the box but I need time to think.

They have been trying to sell the exhaust at that price for aaages now. Hopefully it's at least worth the "discounted" price to you. Anything that sits around unsold on deep discount for that long makes me wonder.
