Has anybody with Sportcross change their exhaust ?
If so, what brand do you have? Cat-back or rear only?

Why are you asking specificly about the sportcross? The sportcross has the same exhaust as all the other IS's, plus it's going to look the same as the lower body of both cars is the same.

The reason why I'm asking about Sportcross is that's the
model I have and not a sedan. I know they have the same engine but since it's a little bit longer I thought it may
be different and a longer pipe than the sedan. When I ask
HKS if they have the exhaust for Sportcross, they told me
they don't have the application for that car.

Hahahaha. Alright man. Your car is .4 inches longer than mine. I'm fairly certain that you can use any moron to install a muffler for you won't notice the difference. When they go to mount your new exhaust the installer needs to make sure it extends far enough from the back of your car as to not burn the bumper. All they have to do it cut the origional pipe .4 inches longer than they normally do for an IS.

But then again, the .4 might be somewhere else on the car... the front, or even the middle. The guy you talked to at HKS probably doesn't have a clue what the 'sportcross' is. He is probably thinking it's a totally different car from the IS. YOU are safe with nearly ANY IS exhaust application.

I purchased my exhaust kit from "L-Sportline". Very clean install
and I'm very happy with the look. Not to loud either.

Is the L-Sportline cat-back? How much is it? I heard it's one
of the quietest as with 5zigen.

The exhaust system is actually three sections, Y-pipe, center pipe
with pre-silencer, and rear pipe with muffler. The "L-sportline"
kit is rear pipe and muffler with a chrome tip and the sportline
logo engraved on the upper section of the tip. Retail price is
$520.00 + tax.
