Doesn't sound too bad, I appreciate that it's not as ricey sounding as all of the other exhausts I've heard so far.

I've been a fan of Apexi parts but for some reason, I'm not feeling their exhaust on the FR-S/BRZ.

The tip looks too big and too ricey.

^^this exactly. i have an apexi n1 on my MR2 and it sounds fantastic. the gt spec sounds a little better, but not so much that i feel like changing it out, haha.

i don't care for the sound of this exhaust on the BRZ/GT86. too bad.

That sounds horrible. I'll take the stock sound over that. Sounds like a 20 year old civic with an exhaust leak.
