Decent exhausts?

Just bought my frs and I'm on a budget from around 500-800$ exhaust. I'm mainly looking for a good sounding one more than looks. If you could suggest some I would really appreciate it. Thanks.

If youre looking for a deal, look through the Groupbuy sub forums and checkout the groupbuy for the Perrin exhaust. You can get a heck of a deal for a Perrin 2.5 resonated catback which in my opinion is the best sounding exhaust for our cars. Check out this link! Hope this helps!

I'm not head over heels with my FT86SF V2 single exit CBE, but I really enjoy it

It's quite loud- recommend factory FP or quieter.. possibly catted headers as I have catless and it's almost too loud

best $200 deal I've seen on the forums so I had to grab it

If you ask 10 people, you'll probably get 9 different answers. For a brand new exhaust, I love my Borla CBE, and they are available on amazon for under $800 shipped.

For me, I chose Borla because of the large oval muffler and the unique tips, plus the option to use their diffuser down the road (which I still think is the cleanest, most subtle diffuser on the market). The large muffler (usually) means less drone and deeper tone, that's pretty much what it gave me. It sounds very pleasant to my ears. And the design is one of the most straight through designs for our cars, with minimal bends. One downside is that it hangs a little low, but if you aren't slammed it shouldn't be an issue.

But even sound clips on youtube can't do exhausts justice, find someone on the forums or a local meet and listen in person.
