Medallion Touring Premier C Series:
The Medallion Touring Premier C represents Revel's premium touring exhaust line, designed for enthusiasts who want a meaningful exhaust upgrade without sacrificing the refined character of their Lexus. The "Touring" designation reflects the exhaust's focus on delivering an enhanced exhaust note that is engaging and authoritative without being excessively loud or intrusive during daily driving. The Premier C series represents Revel's commitment to quality materials and precise engineering for a premium ownership experience.
Engineered for the 2UR-GSE V8:
The exhaust is specifically engineered for the Lexus 2UR-GSE 5.0L naturally aspirated V8, shared between the IS500 and RC-F. The 2UR-GSE is renowned for its high-revving character, linear power delivery, and exceptional naturally aspirated sound. The Revel Medallion exhaust is tuned to complement and enhance these characteristics, bringing out the best of the V8's acoustic properties across the entire RPM range. The result is a more engaging, more vocal exhaust note that rewards spirited driving without becoming tiresome during daily commutes.
Refined Exhaust Character:
Unlike aggressive race-oriented exhausts that prioritize maximum volume, the Medallion Touring Premier C is tuned for refinement. The exhaust delivers a deep, authoritative V8 rumble at idle and cruise, building to a more vocal, engaging note under acceleration. The sound character is appropriate for the IS500 and RC-F's grand touring nature - enhancing the driving experience without compromising the luxury character of these Lexus models. This makes it an ideal choice for daily-driven IS500 and RC-F owners who want an improved exhaust note without the drone and harshness of more aggressive systems.
Stainless Steel Construction:
The exhaust is constructed from quality stainless steel throughout, providing excellent corrosion resistance and long service life. Stainless steel withstands the high temperatures and thermal cycling of the exhaust system while resisting corrosion from moisture, road salt, and exhaust gases. The quality construction ensures the exhaust maintains its appearance and performance over years of use, even in harsh Canadian winter conditions.
Mandrel-Bent Piping:
The exhaust uses mandrel-bent piping throughout, which maintains consistent pipe diameter through bends. Unlike crush bending, which creates restrictions at bends, mandrel bending ensures smooth, unrestricted exhaust flow. This consistent diameter maximizes exhaust flow efficiency, contributing to the power gains and improved exhaust note. The mandrel bending also provides a cleaner, more professional appearance compared to crush-bent alternatives.
Direct Bolt-On Fitment:
The exhaust is designed as a direct bolt-on replacement for the factory cat-back system, using the factory mounting points and hangers. This ensures proper fitment and eliminates the need for cutting or welding. The direct fitment also means the factory system can be reinstalled if needed. All necessary hardware and gaskets are included for a complete installation.
IS500 vs. RC-F Fitment:
While both the IS500 and RC-F share the 2UR-GSE engine, they have different body styles and exhaust routing. The Revel T71180C is designed to fit both applications, making it a versatile choice for owners of either model. Always verify your specific vehicle year and model before ordering to ensure proper fitment.
