Yes, you can custom an x pipe. As for sound, it all depends on the resonator and mufflers you use.

But i mean for this raspy deep sound like a v8 .. I am in doubt because lexus is only 2.5 litres, and i think that is not enough to make same sound like this . or i am wrong maybe. Sorry for stupid questions, but i am crazy to have same sound on my ride

You probably can get a similar v8 sound with magnaflow mufflers. If you really want that crazy rasp, delete both secondary cats and resonator. Straight pipe it and you will get extreme rasp and drone. It will be illegal and only meant for off public roads and hwy use. Some people even straight pipe it with NO MUFFLERS .

I had an x pipe on my 08' 250 and my current 11' 350. My 250 started with the x pipe and the "mufflers" from the drift spec megan axle back. Needless to say , it was loud as F***, but also disgustingly raspy. Even after adding some 18" resonators, it still sounded too raspy.

On the 350, i started with x pipe, megan FR-T mufflers, and 2 14" vibrant resonators. It sounded nice, but would throw some raspiness around 4K, so I added 2 20" magnaflow resonators. It is much quieter now, no rasp, and sounds great when you punch it. Hope my failures can help you lol
