Default Is-f straight pipe

Are there any videos of ISFs running straight pipes?

I would love to hear the loudest exhausts systems/ set ups (as I am in the process of finding the perfect exhaust for my IS-F)

Thanks guys

It's hard to imagine a better sounding exhaust for the IS-F than the Joe Z setup. That said, here's a video of my muffler delete pipes, the rest of the system is stock.

I can't do the stock exhaust tips. Bothers me for some reason. There are plenty of videos on youtube of aftermarket exhausts for the IS-F. Some exhausts replace the faux-tips and some don't. Some of them to look in to:

Joe-Z
Borla
Tanabe
ISS Forged
HKS
stock with straight pipe.

There are also headers available made by Sikky with new headers on the way from Elite. From what I've gathered, I/H/E combos are yielding big results.

What do you guys think about deleting just ONE muffler? I like the sound of the muffler delete, but I don't think I can live with the noise since the F is a bit of a daily driver.

I know some people do that. I just wonder if it would change the acoustics of it. (one side louder than the other.)

Try looking into the ISS Forged Track exhaust then as I believe it is louder than the Joe-Z exhaust.

I wouldn't assume it would have much more if anymore drone than running the car with secondary cat and muffler delete.

i would look into ISS Forged...they sound mean but the droning is too much for daily driving, well at least for me.

I ordered the ISS exhaust just based on the videos I heard on youtube and hearing one members ISS exhaust that had removed the X pipe from their exhaust which made it extremely loud but that might be cause it was in his garage still. I should have my exhaust in the next two weeks or so. I will hopefully get time to get it installed the following weekend from when I receive it since I am going to do the install myself.

If you ever plan to put headers on i would rock a slightly quieter exhaust cause the headers really open up the sound
