srt for me based on design. the nameless sounds good but i don't like the look of it.


its a bit too early for this thread.

as for AP i don't trust any of the dynos i have seen so until someone buys one and dynos it i wouldn't consider them. Just a quick note as well but a tuner on here (John) dynoed a car with a set of AP headers on it and they made no power according to him soI would wait for some numbers before buying anything of course this goes for all brands.

Very happy with the Perrin Catback. Waiting for them to release their frontpipe and headers.

I'd say Perrin or Nameless for me.

The Autofactory "quiet" catback is available now I believe. It's around $2500 list, contact Bulletproof Automotive for more info, haven't seen any power numbers.

you'll never a good answer out of this question.
This is such a subjective opinion. I've met ricers who absolutely love the sound of their raspy civics (not that there aren't great sounding civics)

buying an exhaust system is one of the hardest things to do to me because sound clips never do any justice and sound different depending on the quality of the system. I always go to car meets and try to listen to them in person until I find what I like.

Nameless header, motiv mid-pipe, Greddy RS cat-back when it's out in October.

The only mid-pipe that I think is better is the SARD unit. You can get it through RHDJapan or Nengun

IMO wait for the Tomei Manifold to Tail, I had it on my WRX. That's the route I'm waiting for. The SEMA show is in November, there will be more product shown we havn't even sen yet. Come January you'll have to get in line for what you want.

You think the Motiv test pipe or high flow cat is the way to go? I got the test pipe on the way. They said they may be developing header and cat back for this car also.

Vivid posted Dyno runs where the header didn't make any power alone also. Is there a header on the market that makes power when installed with the stock exhaust?

I want to get the USA TRD Exhaust , now looking at the Borla Cat-back exhaust and sounds amazing , could be another option instead of waiting for the USA TRD.... A friend of mine have an BMW M3 with a Borla exhaust and it sounds excellent!!

I like the TRD USA sound, heard it back in May at Toyotafest. Also like the look of it.
Otherwise the SRT looks good to me and I was considering Magnaflow, but need to hear in person.
