  1. Welcome to Europe's Leading Lexus Club! Please Enjoy!

  2. Thread resurrection! I just had my MOT today which thankfully my LS430 passed again for the 16th time, but it came back with its first ever advisory of a small leak in one of the rear backboxes. I am considering doing what you have had done and just replace the mufflers with a straight pipe to 1) resolve the leak which will inevitably get worse and 2) improve the sound. I know making our cars louder divides opinion but I like the V8 sound/rumble and previously had a custom exhaust on a BMW e39 M5 which I had for about 30k miles, so I know I can live with the sound everyday! Out of interest how much did this straight pipe set up cost you all in? Was it really just as simply as getting someone to cut the exhaust just behind the backboxes and then weld in a couple of pipes? Did you have any MOT issues with this when the time came regarding the set up or noise? Many thanks!
