I finally got the Lexus sounding decent. I had Midas on hwy 100 do the work. At first they cut out the 3 resonators and made it true dual without and X or an H section and it sounds like a 350 with glasspacks. Absolutely horrible. I then had them put in a Magnaflo X-section and it sounds much better. I have taken it back to Midas for leaks in the welds and to straighten the tips but it's still not right. I am not happy with their work. I am going to be looking for someone to make me a complete flanged center section with an X out of stainless. If anyone can tell me who can do that let me know please.

Onto the video. Sorry about the quality, I usually have better.

Nioce!

So that thing has 300HP heh?? Should be a good run for the monte then! We'll have to see how they face off some time.

Maybe out on the highway. Thats where those GS's shine.


Sounds great. Nothing like the sound of a tightly wound High reving V8 opened up. I have a stillen/Dynamax setup on the Q.

I think the monte would take it. These only run mid to low 14's stock. They have some weight to them.

Mostly appearance mods I believe. Tons more performance stuff for the GS 300.

Most 06+ monte's,Impy's (not 94-96= 15's LOL), and GXP's run low 14s stock too... Close race! But yours isnt stock anymore.... im gonna need spots...

Yea, unmodded!!:goof


I don't think you would touch the GS above 70 though. They are true road cars.

I'd like to put the CLS up against either the monte or the gs400, I'd like to see what it can do.

CLS is 280, and headers are another 30 so I should be right at 300 as well.

They make headers, intake, torque converters, they used to make supercharger kits, they make turbo kits, 6 spd swap kits, etc

I thought you girl ran 13's in it :confused I would need a shot to keep up with it. I guess the Lexus weighs in @3690 and the Monte @3490. Your tune, minus cat, etc added 50whp too!

Well it sounds like an Import luxury cars vs one half-way luxury american car shoot out to come!

I plead the fifth on what its runs LOL. But that is true that she did make the car run its PB bwahahhaah.

But i very well may be out at hwy playing around tonight... I might ask for a ricer roll as the pickle dont hook so well at anything under 45 in these temps.

They are having some issues with them cracking so I am staying away from them right now until someone figures it out. AJ "MY GSX" has the headers for his GS400 but he is having someone working on them to improve the quality so I will check them out when he gets them back.

They just got back today and look great. Now I just need to get of my lazy *** and put them on. Then it's time to add a few more "bolt-ons" ;)
