Hey man, I've been following your build since like forever and I really need your opinion right now. How's the Tomei type 80? More specifically, how's the in cabin noise? Too much drone? Does it get irritating? How loud is it on a scale from 1 - 10? Is it straight pipe loud? In combination with the FT86 Catted Header, does it sound quieter inside the cabin or does it sound worse (more drone)? I ask all this because I'm like on the verge of trading my cat back for one.
PS. I can tolerate loud and some drone, incase you say something like "everyone has different loudness/volume tolerances." lol |

@JakePoetzel-BRZ
Tired to send this too your PM. But you selected to not receive PM so I just posted my reply here. I sold that exhaust a long time ago haha, probably like a year and a half ago. I've since switched to a Tomei Type 80 Exhaust which I love. When I had my injen SES exhaust it sounded good really brought out the sound of the car, but I personally hated the drone that the car gained throughout the 3k-4200 rev range which killed the exhaust for me since I daily drive my car. Personally if you plan to go forced induction in the future, you should buy an exhaust that you can keep in the long run. This is why I choose the Tomei Type 80 it sounds awesome N/A and will be an excellent complement to my turbo once it arrives this month ![]()

interesting. alignment? how's the stretch on the 255 over the 9.5? think you could fit more? how's inner clearance? i was thinking about doing the 8.5's with 255's because i wasn't sure... there just doesn't seem to be that much room. goal is about -2.5/3 up front and -2 in back. if i can fit the 9.5+40's, then i'll do that instead of the 8.5+45's. thanks ![]() |
