On the RCF I had the invidia exhaust and I loved it. Without looking through 53 pages of this thread, is there one available yet? Debating which route to go with exhaust lol
The RC F axle back fits the IS 500 🙂

Exhaust choices out there for IS500:
- The Invidia RC-F cat-back fits with 3" extension
- All RC-F axel back fits
- Tom's axel back (should be out if not soon they aimed this summer for axel back)
- LEM's x i Code titanium axel back is available for order i think
- Meisterschaft GT-Haus axel back or cat back
- Apex'i axel back or cat back
- Suruga Speed axel back or cat back should be available for order
- RR Racing axel back or cat back
- Novel probably coming soon but the headers is available
- Other RC-F cat-back might also work w/ extension but you'll have to take one for the team and test it lol...

Correct we had them in stock in the morning but sold out that morning.

Apexi's August shipment is all sold out and we had one spot left for the midpipe so you will get that one!

**For anyone else interested in Apexi or GTHAUS midpipes, we highly suggest preordering as they do sell out before they get here still**

The Invidia Q300 midpipe for the RCF comes in 2 sections. Where the 2 sections join is where you are putting that 3" extension.

If you happen to look at my post of the item it says it’s for an rc350 😉 the piping diameter on the axleback is the same for rcf and rc350 midpipe is where the difference is.

I never contacted them. I checked my order email and I actually placed my order on 6/24. I am coming up on six weeks. They estimated between 5 to 8, so it is getting close. All good!

I’ve had both the Invidia Axleback and Revel Medallion Touring-S on my IS500 and I’m selling both now. Both are a little too loud for my liking. I’ve come to the conclusion I will have to save up for the GT Haus. Can’t do the mid pipe here in California or I’d already have it. I’ll see if i can attach a clip of the Invidia. Sounded great on cold start and had a few pops every now and then.

GT Haus is even louder isn't it?
