- I can not make any guesses on the Dyno Results for the IS250 as we never had an opportunity to Dyno Test the IS250 during the R&D.. We only used the IS350.
But if someone in So Cal wants to donate time & car (manual IS250) we can try and arrange dyno testing...
Preferably we would use someone interested in purchasing the exhaust.
I would expect to see results for the IS250 to be close to or greater than the IS350 dyno tests.
- The exhaust system is designed to work perfectly in conjunction with the OEM manifold & flanges.. I am not sure what to expect if it was bolted onto a different header..
Thank You

You boys have it tough out in CA. Its crazy to read some of these post and that they pulled you over for a new car?
I also agree with Joe! The less you do to your car to draw attn the less they mess with you. I had no front plate for years and got harassed when I moved for tinted windows and no front plate. Installed the front plate :bitting my tongue: and little behold they havent even looked at me since
I think I am going to give up finally on the tinted windows when I get the new car...Just get it and enjoy it

Hello & Thank You!!
To my knowledge.. It shouldn't rub.... but I can not be 100% sure at this time.
..since we never installed this exhaust on a car that has the braces.
If you are running these braces, take some measurements between the closes points of the brace and your exhaust piping/resonator.. then I can do the same with my exhaust and the oem brace to compare..
OR
If someone in So Cal has these braces, I can put the cars side be side and do the measurements simultaneously.

Thanks for the info, I am not running the brace. I hope another CL member and post the measurements.

Also, during R&D we didn't shoot any video/sound clips...
Its going to be slightly louder, but not that much... Trust me..
I'm not even sure if a sound difference will be heard in a Video...
If you want to hear mine in person, you know how to find me..

care to explain why this is better then the rest and from companies that have been making exhausts for many years? I guess they have garbage and are lucky their companies have made it this far
