Help me choosing the best catback for me!

Hey guys I had to make a new thread as I didn't get that much help from the catback thread.

I'm saving up to get a catback in a month or two.

I like deep sound exhaust I have been watching so many videos of different catbacks and has narrow it down to these 3.

Greddy evo gt

Invidia N2

Borla S (something not sure about the name)

I know the sound on the video on YT are not very accurate and sadly not many 86's around where I live (Saudi Arabia).

Based of YT videos I like the Greddy's sound the most but I'm so afraid about how low the exhaust is. I'll be installing new wheels and will be installing the Eibach pro kit. Will the Greddy evo gt be scraping every where I go? Or it won't be that much of a difference with 1" drop. I'm worried the most about angled "roads" like going up in the parking lot....etc.

As for the Invidia N2 I'm not sure if the sound of it is very deep like the greddy or borla, some videos shows it as a deep sounding exhaust and some not. If you have one or heard one pls share your thoughts.

Finally the Borla which I like how deep the sound of it but it seems very quiet from the videos I've seen, again if you have one or heard one IRL please share your thoughts.

Your help is appreciated, Thanks in advance.

Header makes a big difference in exhaust tone as well as resonators. Cats effect volume more and a little tone. So hard to say what something will sound like for certain until the exact setup is tested.
You didn't mention if you have a header or front pipe or are planning on getting one. Also didn't mention what volume you are after.

With all that being said I have no experience with those 3 catbacks. But i do have csg mxp touring86 catback. It is a deeper (but not too deep) clean, crisp sound, no drone or rasp. Sounds very good. being 2.75” has great flow for both NA and FI. And is one of the quietest catbacks, with full headerback and no cats its barely louder then stock. Not annoying to daily drive at all.

My car is pretty stock only 9000km. I just got myself a nice set wheels and lowering springs.

Never heard the sound of the MXP touring only heard the MXP comp RS which os stupid loud. I will check it out for sure.

I really like the Greddy's evo gt but it looks like it will scrape everywhere.

Thanks for your help.
