J2 exhaust. Somehow preferred the exhaust note of this compared to my original choice of the Q300 after months of searching before I even bought my BRZ.

For the price, it's decent. Overall 6/10 for sound, fitment, quality.

Fitment is pretty poor. Had to readjust it a few times. Will take it to an exhaust shop to straighten it out and fix the hangers.

It doesn't sound too loud outside of the car, but in the cabin, wub wub wub wub wub wub. Minimal sound deadening I'm assuming.

And I just like the quad tips.

no they were from led underunderbody.com. They match perfectly with the interior lights however it has a remote controller so it wouldn't turn on with the headlights even when i tapped them for power. i had to open the controller module and figure out how i can bypass the remote control which i finally did. overall it was worth the $50. Their costumer service is horrible!

Takes 5 mins to line up the tabs and install.

Super easy.

Here's the video of the mounts. You can see how easy it is to take it out and put it back.

Here's the linky for the products.

I just went to 86CUP track event at Chuckwalla Raceway this last Saturday. It worked really well.

Got to monitor all the key temps.

Dropped it off at the body shop. Estimated 2 weeks and around $7000 worth of hail damage.

WOW!!! That SUCKS!

I'm sure glad that I didn't still live in Plano when that storm blew through.

Hope they gave you a decent rental in the interim.
