All i can say is wow, that exhaust sounds beautiful sir 
. not too raspy with a wonderful tone. the only thing that upsets me about this exhaust is that i will more than likely have to dip into my wheel fund now to purchase this damn thing! 
a job well done all around!

Joe, the exhaust sounds badass! I'm liking it alot.
Again, the sound inside is probably the biggest concern most of us have in that we dontt want to have that low RPM drone.
That's the only missing piece now!

Listen to those 1st passes done at normal driving speed / acceleration...
Now, when you hit WOT all you hear is the exhaust opening up, much louder & sportier... but no drone...
I'll see about trying to get an interior sound/video clip later tonight..

Man, that video is incredible. Kudos to the director and the editor... 
It might be obvious already, but I'll state this anyway:
1st launch is a NORMAL launch - not hard or aggressive at all. When the Joe's car passes back, it is NORMAL driving.
2nd launch is an AGGRESSIVE launch, as is the return pass.
And of course, the last launch after all the revving is another AGGRESSIVE launch.

p.s. - the car at the beginning is HOT!

There is no interior drone at low rpm cruising..

Awesome!
I know that you said that you need an AWD to see the possibilities, but do you think you would ever make one for the Is250 AWD or guess if performance gains would be similar? I'd love to have this on my AWD and there's a huge market for AWD's here in the northeast.

I guess you want all the windows closed too?? and maybe a short clip with windows open??
Its going to sound clean as a whistle either way....

Javy came up with the driving scenes and of course was a Great "camera man" as usual!!! He even worked his own ride into the film...
He can take pictures with a disposable camera and some how turn them into pro shots...
My wife added her skills with the video editing software and I approved the final cut.. LoL..
