With the silencer tho, in cabin drone is gone, but you also lose the ability to hear the nice deep low RPM tone and popping sound that CBE alone makes. I then recently installed ACE CS400 header and boy was the drone bad... So I reinstalled the silencer and the noise went back to when I had 2 cats. I had read a few thread from Lexus IS forum that someone dynoed the CBE with silencer on and confirmed there was little to none impact to the performance.

Now I am playing with the idea of going to a shop and weld on a second resonator on my stock FP just so I can take the stupid looking silencer off...
Thanks man, just the answer I wanted to hear. How does the silencer work?
Do you have any pics of it installed/out of the exhaust system?
