Default Exhaust....so many choices?

Hey guys I'm hoping to get some feed back on exhaust systems for my IS350.
I live in Fl so emissons are not an issue. Was looking at the Race joe-Z or the f-sport. Any others i should be looking at?

I like the F-sport, but am leaning more towards the Race Joe Z. Does any one have that one their IS. If so does it have the threads for the O2 sensors. I like the fact it is an X-pipe system.

The exhaust is amazing though, it was like 1.5x louder than the f sport, and when he drove away, it sounded like a cross between a lambo and the regular f sport. Truly an amazing sound. I just wonder how bad the drone is...

Yeah thats it, with windows up. Say your crusing on the freeway at around 65-80 mph, is it tolerable? And is it true that you hear the exhaust through all the rpms?

PPE's new exhaust is REALLY nice. They are also giving customers options on how loud they want it. I love mine.
