Are you planning on doing any other mods to the car like aftermarket wheels, body kit, etc??

Thanks man, anything is possible as long as I really like the design

Waiting for a good body kit!

Also, would a group buy be only for the IS model line or for all product lines?

To keep this thread on topic- If you would like to make a new post specifically about that, we'd be happy to answer it there. For any type of group buy or purchasing, contact you Club Lexus vendors, such as TM Engineering, Carson Toyota, etc, etc.

cat-back

There have been several mentions that this is a cat-back exhaust system, but that is technically incorrect. While the system does replace a significant portion of the rear exhaust section, since it does not bolt up directly to the catalytic converters (there are no flanges on the IS350's catalytic converters), the system is technically a rear-section, but not quite an axle-back, since it does extend further than the rear axles.

Wonder why... Tanabe did not make a cat-back system with Tanabe's own resonator.....
that would be whole lot more of gain. But i am pretty sure within a few month, there will be y pipe which removes cats tho...
