I was looking into that exhaust while back... but I couldn't really swallow +$800 for single exit exhaust, so in the end, I went w custom exhaust.

I have a 3" Perrin resonated cat back and it is just too loud with an uncatted header and hi flow catted front pipe. It just sounds terrible. When I had stock parts in front of it, it was nice.

I've given up on aftermarket cat backs. I should be able to build what I need for under 400. Going to add a vband to the stock muffler so I can swap it out for tracks that are strict on sound.

A handful of makers offer lifetime warranty, but usually it covers things like welding.

Aftermarket exhausts get louder over time bc the fiberglass packing get blown out. OE exhausts are quiet because they use baffles and large canisters to suppress sound.

Damn, thats amazing. If the Ptuning sitting in my garage doesnt work out I know what I'm moving to later on haha. I love my current sound but want a single exit again

Never considered it since it used to be one of the loudest back when I had my GD Sti. Cool thats its mellow but still deep

Did you buy Garlands turboback exhaust? I have a ptuning overpipe+frontpipe that you can connect to the turboback for a full headerback exhaust

Haha, yeah. I'll PM you so we don't derail this thread totally.

Try not to get a catback that is too loud before headers. Headers increase the volume significantly.
