Replacing Axleback but not Midpipes - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

ft_86 · 03-05-2016, 02:09 AM

I'm looking into replacing my exhaust system within the next month or two but I also don't want to break the bank. With that being said, would it make sense to just replace the axleback or should I replace midpipes as well? I'm really into nameless for the sound it creates but I'm not sure whether to get the axleback or catback exhausts?

You should do whatever you want. I don't know what you are trying to achieve. Do what makes you happy.

Fast(sounds good)
Cheap(not break the bank)
Reliable(good material, fits well, warranty, etc)

Pick two.

If that is going to be your only exhaust mod, I'd suggest you just go with the nameless axle back with the 2.5" piping and 5" mufflers.

See...... very simple ......

get what you think sounds good. you have to live with it day in and day out. If its a litfle more than you wanted to spend just save a little more otherwise you will regret just settling.

and the Nameless with 5" mufflers sounds amazing imo

The works axleback w/ muffler is a bit cheaper than the nameless axleback w/ 5" mufflers.
