The reason why most of their exhaust is rectangular or square is because of space constraints underneath the vehicle due to ride height, chassis, drivetrain, etc, which all don't really have any affect on our GS because there is tons of room. Have you ever actually seen a Sprint Cup car exhaust system? I could be totally wrong but I'm pretty sure no NASCAR team actually runs mufflers... They don't have to comply with noise ordinates, so why would they add a flow restriction to their exhaust systems for fun? Maybe I missed something, but would have to believe that anything that would ever go on a Sprint Cup car would likely never improve the performance of a "stock" Lexus. Anyways, let us know what you come up with, all that should happen is the change of exhaust notes.

Is there a name of this company that reportedly supplies all the teams from NASCAR with their custom one-off exhaust systems?

A Richard Childress Racing car (Clint Bowyer) upside down, note the exhaust, no mufflers, just straight, rectangular pipes that are swept back to reduce the turbulence of the exhaust coming out.

as i said, im willing to guinea pig it. im not paying for it so i dont mind dynoing it. the worst i can do is LOSE HP...either way i will dyno it and find out what if ANY gains are to be made

not spintech but good guess
i should have sound clips of my car before and after in a few days
i will get the custom x pipe and mufflers out to sakataj in the next day or so and cant wait to see what results he gets
we are in the middle of putting the man in questions new website up and hope to make him available to this board as well as all the boards that internet brands own
best gains will be headers get rid of the cats to x-pipe 2.5 pipe back to mufflers
As i told sakataj if it makes sense i might be able to get him to do a set of headers but lets start with the mufflers and x-pipe

Are these mufflers the one's in the pictures? If he is using OEM exhaust, won't he have to cut the OE mufflers off because the new mufflers don't have any bolt-on flanges... Isn't that going to cost time and money?

Unless his name is Boyd Butler, I believe his is no 'Dr. Gas'..... who invented the "boom tube" resides in Utah... He even invented the spintech mufflers, almost like the ones that are pictured... Read this article if your interested in Dr. Gas...

UncleJ: Sorry to doubt the man in question, I'm sure we would be glad to actually have him on here to discuss and answer questions. Dr. Gas is top-notch, with that being said, I think the more exposure that he gets, the more money he can make, but let me just say that he already has existing boards and forums where he is very well supported. I just want to talk about his designs and the way he sees the world, he seems to be a stand up dude. Again, sorry for busting your *****, glad you stuck with it, in for Dr. Gas...

I want to put a boom tube on my Ford Falcon, it has a juiced up 93' 5.0, it'd be bad ***... I wanna hear what these mufflers sound like with some American Muscle...
