performance exhaust for ES300h
Hi all ,this is Kent from China and I have a 2015 es300h. I just changed a new set of BC BR coilovers for my car. At the next stage I want to get a set of performance exhaust. However, as I know,there are little performance exhaust for es300h. So I want to ask any of u guys change the exhaust and what brands should I go for? E.g. FGK, TRD....It is too quiet at the moment, I want some louder exhaust with gud quality (not ricer).
whats more, es300h has the same classic code with es250 (xv60) , does it mean they share the same exhaust system? In my opinion, 300h is hybird it uses electricity below 60km/h, so their exhaust is different? Thank you for ur answer.

Love the drop on the coilovers, how's the ride compared to stock suspension? One more good thing about the ES300h is that we can use 92 octane petrol instead of pricey 95 or 98. I haven't seen hot attendants at my local Sinopec or Shell station yet 
As for the exhaust, I don't know if you can use a dual-outlet design like on the ES250. In fact the ES300h shares the same exhaust design with a hidden tip and rear bumper balance as the ES200. You would probably have to get a new rear bumper and check the exhaust mounting points to see if dual cans can be used. I've seen some wicked dual can exhausts on a CT200h and NX300h at my local dealer so I know it's possible to mod these hybrids.

The hybrid with CVT will not really sound good with a loud muffler. The engine will turn on and off at odd times and will produce a loud drone like a plane taking off during acceleration.

Perhaps there is an exhaust designed for the 2.5L 4 cylinder Camry that will fit.
There is not a 4 cylinder Avalon (at least in USA) but maybe a Camry system
could be made to work.

I'll check with my dealer about aftermarket hybrid exhaust systems. I know they've done modded CTs and NX hybrids, although I haven't seen a single modded ES over at their place.
Do you want a cat-back system or just a free flowing muffler with dual tips? The latter would be easier to source. I'd think the hybrid would sound a bit flatulent when it charges at idle because the idle rpm is a lot higher than on non-hybrids. It could possibly sound better when accelerating but the idle sound could get irritating.
