-I will not buy an exhaust that will wake up the neighborhood when I drive home at night.
-I will not buy an exhaust with rasp.
-I will not buy an exhaust that drones.

I don't mind paying more for good quality stuff. I never buy Chinese knockoffs.
Pretty much this. The exhaust I buy has to be livable in volume and great in tone; has to have one cat to make me feel not so terrible and for emissions; has to make power; and I'm absolutely willing to sacrifice some of the weight for that.

I was looking at SRT's exhaust and their axleback section has less bends; I don't pretend to know anything about exhaust tuning, but that was something I liked. I understand your section bolts to the stock midpipe, perhaps some of us will be willing to replace that? That brings me to my final point: compatibility. I never bought any TurboXS exhaust pieces because it was "proprietary" in that you needed adapters to run certain parts with other brand parts. Sometimes I like to mix and match, I don't like being forced into using certain parts for compatibility's sake (I think APS Australia did the same thing).

I don't own any Nameless parts because you didn't have a GD chassis exhaust system when I had my WRX; I want to own some Nameless parts for my BRZ! I'm a big fan of how you guys operate, your attitude, and what I've seen. Make some parts I can't refuse to buy!
