Front pipe & Overpipe: JDL vs Motiv Concepts

Hello everyone! I'm currently debating on whether I should get a JDL front pipe/overpipe combo or if I should go with the Motiv Concepts combo. I've done some research and I've heard nothing but good things about both companies, which is why it's so hard for me to choose.

My current set up: TRD intake + TRD exhaust

Future Plan: 93 Tune, maybe headers added

Goal: Moderate performance gain + get a mature, smooth sounding exhaust with a small boxer rumble and without rasp.

The products:

Thanks!

Front pipe & Overpipe: JDL vs Motiv Concepts

Whichever is cheaper.

Both are great (I have a JDL) quality, and will achieve the results your looking for. Or save a few dollars and get a Berk.

I for one am really interested in pairing the EL JDL with their ultra quiet front pipe.

I have an UEL paired with the ultra quite. It definitely made my set up a tad more quiet, especially cruising.

I have the Motiv OP and Catted FP. Love them both. Perfect fitment, great welds, and it hooked up to my new GruppeS UEL perfectly as well with no leaks. Love everything about Motiv, I wish they continued the R&D on their exhaust because I would have bought that too. I've had the OP and FP for over 50K+ miles with zero issues.
