Borla Cat-Back Exhaust for the LX
I'm seriously considering getting a Borla cat-back exhaust for my 2001 LX. A search here and on another Lexus forum reveals that lots of SC owners have one and are happy with it. Anyone know of a LX installation?
Why? I'm not trying to turn the LX into a sports car (although the theoretical 10-15hp gain would be nice), no real reason other than looking for a mod to apply to the LX.
Comments, feedback, good idea, bad idea?

Well,
I have the Borla on the SC and the tone/sound is very nice. I would be interested in the Borla setup for the LX. Does anyone have a link with pics installed or sound bites?

I installed the Borla exhaust system about two months ago. I was a little aprehensive about the exhaust noise, but was very pleased after the install. The sound is just right, it added a little meanness to the exhaust sound. You can barely notice the difference in sound with the windows closed and you can hear the famous borla rumble with the windows down. You can definitely feel the extra power, expecially from a standing start. It really feels quicker. I would highly recommend the install.

The cheapest I found it was $585 + shipping (~$45 I think). PM me if you want the store link.
I have not purchased but still considering it... the Lexus is my wife's DD and she probably wouldn't appreciate it as much.
