Why so much bad feedback from the intake and exhaust ? Has anyone seen these in person (exhaust ) ? It doesn't look that bad and if it can perform half as good as they say its worth it i think !

and as stated in the first post, stop complaining about a prototype:

This is the thing... I think getting a aftermarket dual exhaust is a good thing. For power and for the look. Although, I dont think the exhaust in question is right for the car.
I personally recommend for LMS to go back to the drawing board and redo the exhaust with manderel ben piping, better mufflers, and OF COURSE better welding. I think they did a great job on the intake, so I see no reason why the couldnt do the same on an exhaust system.
A good exhaust taht comes to mind is the Tanabe. I had their system on my 02 GS300 previous to the IS250, and it was great. I highly recommend them.

Hey Everybody,
Lets all keep in mind this is still in the prototype stages and will more than likely be improved over time. Congrats to the guy who got the intake & exhaust! On a different note, I was hoping someone could give me some quick feedback on whether or not these mods would be a good thing to do with a leased IS350. I know from experience that intakes are really easy to install and remove if necessary, but how about the exhaust? When my lease is up, am I going to run into problems putting the old exhaust back on?
Thanks!

Although I like the tanabe mufflers better than the LMS (wish they would change the mufflers look a bit), Im still extremely interested in the power gains by replacing the restrictive stock resonator and keeping the system dual which LMS did
