This is the 3" version. I just ordered my 3" inch one yesterday, non-offset. Can't wait. This exhaust is awesome!

We haven't produced a single exhaust in the history of our company that wasn't mandrel bent. Just the facts. Even our strut tower bars are mandrel bent.

@Jason@Nameless Being that you've likely heard all of these, how big of a difference is there between the 2.5" non-offset, 2.5" offset and the new 3" offset? I'm pretty sure the 2.5" offset should be quietest, and 2.5 non-offset loudest, but not sure about how big of a difference there is between them. ie, slightly louder, noticeably, etc?

There are videos of this on youtube. Just search Nameless Axleback FR-S BRZ.

There is a hot lava FR-S that has the offset installed, and plenty other videos with non offset. It's a little deeper tone that's a tad quieter than the non-offset. Sound is still very similar.

Thanks for the heads up, but I am well aware of the youtube videos, hell, i posted a number of them. However I would prefer to hear the opinion of someone who has heard them all in person, especially given the vast variances in video/audio quality, recording equipment, recording distances, wind noise, etc from the videos shown on youtube.
