Here's a quick video of the Invidia mid-pipe and axle-back system. I also have a F Sport Intake installed.

The full Invidia cat-back does sound nice. My current dilemma is that my midpipe needs replacing anyway so I was going to upgrade to the Invidia or Megan mid-pipe first (since my stock axle-back was just replaced under warranty) then add an axle back later on. I don't want it to sound like crap in the mean time though so I'm having trouble determining which midpipe I should get. It doesn't need to be loud so that's why I was leaning more towards Megan because in the end I want a deep growl instead of a loud rasp. Am I right in thinking the Megan midpipe?

What part of NY are you in? Im in Metro NY so if youre close youre welcome to check out the sounds before you make a purchase.
Idk how loud you want but Invidia is def louder than megan, Megan is more of a refined note.

I'm upstate in Rochester unfortunately, but thanks! I'd love to do the Invidia/F-Sport combo but I can't afford a new one even with my Lexus employee discount haha I don't want obnoxiously loud, I want it to be quiet while cruising but throaty and deep on acceleration. That's why I'm thinking Megan midpipe & Tanabe axle back but its a hard decision that I've seen many people on here debating. If I could find a used F-Sport or HKS I would jump on it, but they're hard to find.

Theres two guys on the forum with the tsudo and midpipes. One with the megan with resonator delete and the ither is the invidia which I believe doesnt have them to begin with??? I think both have posted videos. The tsudo is on par with megan as far as quality and fitment. Not as good as the top tier exhausts but not as expensive either. Its up to you as far as sound, cost, etc. The tanabe is a beautiful exhaust that you know is going to fit right and sound good. Pair it with a midpipe and it will liven up the sound. Beauty is in the eye if the beholder. Its really your preference on the sound youre looking for. Go to youtube and watch plenty of videos and try to meet up with folks around you to hear them in person and base your decision off of that. There are tons of videos out there and many have in car clips and go pros mounted on the car as well to really hear the everyday sounds of then. Its a huge decision; do plenty of research and youll be happy with your choice. Best of luck to ya.

I want to add more bass but like he said, not too loud. I had the resonator removed on my Cooper S and it sounded great for a Cooper but not so for a Lexus.
Thanks,

Hey buddy,
Some recommendations for you based off sales and installation would be the Q300 axleback and the Invidia/megan midpipe . The Q300 is a quality, great sounding exhaust system. Both the Megan and Invidia pipe will give a great addition to sound and performance.

Resonator delete with or without Magnaflow muffler?
Hello Forum,
I am responding to this feed since I am thinking of adding the Invidia Q300 Axel back, but was looking at other low cost options....here's my thought.
I am now leaning towards doing a resonator delete on my IS 250 F Sport but am a little concerned that the sound might be a little high pitched or obnoxious for a Lexus, so I was thinking off adding a Magnaflow muffler to help bring in a lower tone.
I've compared the Invidia Q300 Axel Back to my stock F Sport exhaust with resonator delete and they seem to be the same or have the same results, so in an effort to save $600-$800 (Q300 is $650 plus tax and install)(resonator delete is only $85 plus maybe a Magnaflow muffler with tips).
I was also thinking of just trying the resonator delete and if the noise was too high that I would maybe add a deeper sounding muffler. Also knowing that if both options were way too obnoxious that I can easily and pretty low costly, reverse the changes.
I am not looking at spending $1200 and replace the entire exhaust just to have a comparable sound to the resonator delete.
Thoughts?
Thanks,
MIke

+1000!!!!
This will make the car very raspy. The invidia full setup is a great setup. I wouldn't touch it.
