Over pipe/ front pipe option but not to loud

Just like topic says, what are good options that are not much louder or the same amount of sound....or should not even mess with them if I already like the way the car sounds with the header/exhaust combo I have ? And do I get extra gainz from those two pipes that make worthy of changing them?

Maybe he wants that extra couple hp. I myself put back on the stock catback because it was too loud.

Gains on those parts are very small. Not worth it.

When I added a berk catted fp, it didn't sound too much louder than my exhaust by itself, but it did sound more aggressive at higher rpm which I liked.

the most gains you will ever get is by swapping out your headers. MAYBE front pipe as well if you go catless front pipe, but either way you will not notice it. the tone of your exhaust might change if you get a front pipe without a resonator or cat, but if you remove the cat it will be slightly louder. if you get a resonator in the front pipe, it will probably also change the tone. changing out the stock overpipe will not give you any gains.

if you like your car the way it sounds now, just don't touch it and leave it.

The Fujitsubo Catless Dual Resonated Front Pipe will not make the car louder. In fact it will keep noise levels the same or even lower by .1.

It's an expensive piece however and since it's catless and if you have a catless header the car will smell very bad.

But if you don't care about smell, that Front Pipe is the best on the market today.

If you're looking for the gains the intake has to offer, I STRONGLY recommend just a drop in filter. There are no gains that an intake can get that can't be realized with a drop in filter and a tune.

Yeah was planning on doing that getting the k&n drop in filter that's all I need to complete "stg 2" was also thinking about a different inlet tube but that's still up for grabs definitely going to the the k&n filter though

I have the Mishimoto inlet tube. It's a nice piece for the money. No gains but it looks better than the stock one with a plug.

In hind sight I would of preferred the Perrin tube, but for no performance difference I'm not going to change it.

If I can get one for about what I'd get selling the Mishimoto, I'd make the swap.

I got a Perrrin Inlet tube this last weekend and after driving the car all weekend, it's a great improvement! Definitely recommend.

Inlet Tube & Drop in Filter and you'll love it

Honestly, about the front pipe, I'd only recommend it if you had a stock header. Like for someone like myself, I will get a catless front pipe because I plan to leave the header stock since I am already happy where the car is on Stage 1 and prefer the stock header for noise/sound/smell/environment reasons. The front pipe will just be that little extra for me and match my exhaust

But since you got the header, you already have the big gains anyways.
