My general rule with exhausts is:

1) Sounds good
2) High quality
3) Cheap

Pick 2.

With the silencer on its only a tad louder than stock until you hit higher rpm. With silencer off its really loud and drones but sounds awesome

Works ab-m. Cheap, zero drone and sounds nice. Build quality is ok, nothing special but for under 500, nothing is going to be too much better, I'd wager.

I love my Works AB-M.

Usually agree but its not always the case.

I would say Vibrant is a cheap brand, had a vibrant exhaust on my previous car for 4 years, 4 harsh upstate NY winters, and aside from needing a polish it still held up, sounded and looked good..

I would not be suprised if some of these "no name" ebay brands turned out to be blems/returns from name brand companies. I have seen knock off mufflers next to legit ones and aside from maybe a name plate it was impossible to tell.

However I know thats not always the case, sometimes you just get completely shitty knockoffs with welds that break and mufflers that sound like shit out of the box or shortly there after.

This video does the BEST job of illustrating what the TRD alone sounds like and I wasn't even aware it sounded quite this good from outside.

I had a TRD exhaust and I loved it. But after a year, I just got bored and sold it so I could get a Nameless set up. I'm back to stock exhaust while I wait for my Nameless one to be made and man I miss my TRD right now.

Probably what I'll couple with forced induction if I get it. Until then, I'm staying stock exhaust.
