There is a little drone, that's why I am hesitant to remove the last resonator. It would just add very big amount of drone?

Really? Did you have to ask so many questions on different post?

Hahah I mean I can't really compare as I have only driven a Lexus SC400 and that's the only Lexus I have driven. As far as performance, it gets me from point A to point B in style, luxury, and if I need to be there fast, it gets me there fast!

If you want a super quick SC, just get an SC300 with a 2JZGE and do a NA-T.

I got the SC400 specifically for the engine design because I wanted a big ol' loud V8

Thanks! I just wanna do the valve shim adjustment so when the car is idle, or when I rev it, you don't hear that Tapping noise.. It kinda kills my exhaust because I want a nice deep throaty and then all you hear is this faint pinging :/

I have to say, I enjoy it too

I think my best option is to leave the last resonator, because this allows me to keep it super quiet when like rolling around my neighborhood late at night. If I removed this last one, It would be stuck permanently loud

After the numerous people telling me not to remove the last resonator, I have plans to remove it tomorrow.

I will officially be running a Cat-Back straight pipe.

Videos will be posted!
