  1. One more thing... The Borla's and L-Tuned are almost the same... The only difference is the Borla's have oval tips and they give you different hangers to mount the mufflers on.. The L-Tuned have round tips and they mount on the factory hangers also the L-Tuned are Toyota manufactured and therefore if installed my Lexus service they are covered in your warranty and won't void anything if your still covered.. But most Lexus service don't care about upgraded exhaust systems so you really have no worries either way... If I had to choose for you and what you said you wanted, I'd say go with the L-Tuned...
  2. Here are the Borla's.... (just mufflers) And here is the Apexi World-Sport (cat-back)
  3. Here, maybe I can help you out a bit.. If you don't want a loud exhaust then you'll probably want to go with the Borla or the L-Tuned.. Both are the quietest you'll find and I guarantee that.. And as far as which system will give you the most HP gain.. They are pretty much the same, with just the mufflers your a bit more restricted than a full cat-back but with the cat-back your looking at a louder sound.. With the upgrades you are planning I think you'll be fine with one of the 2 I mentioned above.. It's all about the ECU and how's it's programed though, that's really how you get the real gain in HP.. If you run a intake and exhaust with your stock ECU you really won't see much gains if you get it dyno'd but with those 2 mod's and piggyback ECU or something like a Apexi S-AFC to tune the air/fuel mixture... you'll see some real gains then... I myself had the Borla's already and I loved them, the sound was also nice.. Not too loud and when I hit the gas you heard a nice deep rumble.. Now I have an Apexi World-Sport cat-back Exhaust.. It's much louder than the Borla's but I went with those because I'm having SRT install a stage 4 Turbo in my GS sometime late Spring and I need to be less restricted... Here's a pic of the Borla's and apic of the Apexi's for you to see... I hope this helped...
  4. For some reason I can't post me pics anymore.. So here they are for you to download if you want to see... Front lip...
  5. I've never programed a key before so I can't help ya.. You can give Sewell a call and ask for Darrel Diller.. He'll be able to help you out..
  6. You guys like??? As for me I can't wait to get those bad boys on my GS.... I feel like a kid again.... :P
  7. Cool... I just got my Work Rezax in... They look sooo nice.
  8. Ravie, I see you read my mail to you... This place is on the ups.. Trying to get everyone I can to come join over here... As for the rims.. I'm getting the rubber maybe tomorrow.. But they'll be on at least one day this weekend so Ican take some pics.. But they definetly be on at the track...
  9. I'll make you a deal for the install... You wax my car while I'm putting parts on yours.. I do this stuff for fun. I'm putting together a gathering March 29th out in Long Island at a race track you are more then welcome to join.. Pm me your info if you want to come along.. I expect about 30 or so Lexo's....
  10. Yeah, Lexus Service is second to none.....
  11. GS4, yes you lose some comfort, but not all... As for the parts, I can get you the TRD sways for under $500. and the Lower Chassis Brace for around $150... The install on both are easy and even if you just have basic car knowledge your good to go. Or If you can't do it , I'm not that far away....
  12. I bought mine new in the begining of last summer... Since then I had only one problem but that was caused by me.. You see I have a set of Tein "Flex" Coilovers with 20" rims and one day I was I95 in the Bronx and I hit 2 bumps going around 90mph and I fucted up my tranny soliniod.. I hit the bump so hard it caused a short and my E-Shift wouldn't work and tranny didn't want to shift into 5th.. So I replaced the tranny under warranty and now everything is great.. No more problems.. As for you, you better find out all the what all the bugs are in your GS fast before the warranty runs out... Goodluck and let me knows what happens when you return from Lexus Service.. Goodluck bro...
