Works ABM vs. Nameless axle back 4in mufflers - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

BlackyRose · 08-27-2013, 11:41 PM

Can someone chime in on a comparison of these two. Used the search but haven't found the two being compared as they are both just axle back systems and both are well respected brands. Works abm is 379 whereas the nameless can get above 500 new. What's the difference sound wise

Bump anyone?

Or any general impressions of the works abm, there are very few threads on it

Ok cool thanks. Would you buy it again if you had the choice or would you go with something else

I checked the sound clip on YouTube the shorter one showing just the tailpipes and it sounds weird, almost as if the exhaust and car were stalling out on deceleration. Go check the google clip and let me know if that's what yours sounds like if appreciate it.

I'd buy it again. It fits perfectly, sounds awesome and doesn't drone at all.

Can't doubt nameless' quality, reputation and RnD, it is a great choice. Works however should be good as well. All comes down to what you wan't in terms of sound level and price and quality.

Well said. The works is 379. The price and quality are there, just not sure about the sound, only 2 YouTube vids

Might have to take a gamble on it

Looking at the ABM as well because of the price and WORKS makes nice stuff. From the reviews I have seen it is perfect for DD, but sounds great when you punch it.

The WORKS systems sound fantastic, I've heard them at multiple meets here in the bay area.

Not too loud right?

Clipdat · 08-29-2013, 11:11 PM

It definitely makes it known that it's there, but I would say it's fine for a DD.

But man when you step on it/jab the pedal, it sounds so throaty and perfect!
