I can say that the exhaust pipe from the engine back (Mid-Pipe) is a little different then the exhaust for the RWD IS250/350.

That being the case, it would be easiest to focus on the axle back rear portion of the exhaust. Also it's an easy DIY.

Tanbe is a fine choice for sublte noise with okay value. All other types are louder and/or more expensive based on the design etc...

not that loud but i love it. it drones but i can live with that. it doesn't sound like a G35 but its kind of close. plus my wife doesn't even notice it. lol. which is a big plus. easy to install it, would have taken like 15 minutes but we were careful to make sure it was attached correctly with the hangers.

For the sound you are looking for Tanabe is the way to go! I had it myself and its a good all around exhaust. Check the classifieds as a few I think are selling theirs local to you
