Fabricated from mandrel-bent, polished stainless steel 2.5-inch tubing, it maintains uniform cross-sectional diameter to minimize turbulent backpressure and accelerate exhaust gas speed. The dual-walled 3.5-inch quad tips provide thermal isolation to protect bumper cutouts from heat wash while optimizing flow aesthetics. Precision-placed OEM-style hangers guarantee accurate hanger-bracket alignment without modifying the factory center section.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"overflow-x: auto; margin-bottom: 20px;\"\u003e\n  \u003ctable width=\"100%\" style=\"border-collapse: collapse; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0; font-size: 14px; min-width: 300px;\"\u003e\n    \u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding:10px; text-align: left; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eFitment\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003e2015-2020 Lexus RC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding:10px; text-align: left; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eEngine \/ Chassis\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003e8AR-FTS, 2GR-FSE, 2GR-FKS \/ XC10\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding:10px; text-align: left; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eStock Output\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003e241-311 hp \/ 258-280 lb-ft\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding:10px; text-align: left; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eReplaces OEM Part #\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eN\/A (Aftermarket AB-LRC215-C)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2016-2017 Lexus RC200t (2.0L Turbo I4 8AR-FTS)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2018-2020 Lexus RC300 RWD (2.0L Turbo I4 8AR-FTS)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2016-2020 Lexus RC300 AWD (3.5L V6 2GR-FSE \/ 2GR-FKS)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2015-2020 Lexus RC350 RWD \/ AWD (3.5L V6 2GR-FSE \/ 2GR-FKS)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDoes not fit Lexus RC F (5.0L V8)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with OEM mid-pipe and factory exhaust layout only\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDoes this fit the XC10 RC?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, this is a direct fit for the 2015-2020 Lexus RC equipped with the 8AR-FTS, 2GR-FSE, or 2GR-FKS engine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWill this axle-back muffler delete trigger a Check Engine Light (CEL)?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo, because this system bolts downstream of the secondary catalytic converters and oxygen sensors, factory OBD-II parameters remain unaffected.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Lexus Acoustic Standard\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEngineered for Japanese performance platforms, this system delivers an aggressive, uninhibited exhaust tone under wide-open throttle while preserving highway drivability and clean underbody fitment.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"VelocityMax","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67530933010680,"sku":"DS-E5AMFL03B","price":345.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/1290\/2648\/files\/axle-back-exhaust-for-lexus-rc200t-rc300-rc350-2015-2020-2-0l-3-5l-1.jpg?v=1790525271","url":"https:\/\/performancechiptuning.com\/products\/axle-back-exhaust-for-lexus-rc200t-rc300-rc350-2015-2020-2-0l-3-5l","provider":"Performance Chip Tuning","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
