turtlefeeder · 07-13-2016, 12:27 AM

Alright guys I need your help, as title suggest, I'm holding a pole between 2 diffuser which to buy since I just got quad exhaust and oem style diffuser won't fit (also selling that with my spec d) but can't pick between agressive I've and none agressive diffuser ,they both look good, subtle none aggressive or bold agressive?

Try to keep response simple please lol so I can Tally down😃

Here's the pic of exhaust and the two diffuser

Agressive: 10
None agresive: 3
No diffuser: 6

Now, I'm all confused .....about the pictures .......

With the dual exhaust tips, I think any stuff hanging down below them just looks too much.

Maybe all those fin things may have an aero advantage over 150 mph ....... however ......

My current exhaust is quad tip last picture, the polls between first and second picture which would you pick?

Ya, know, I'd leave off any diffuser.

Why?

Because I think it looks cleaner and lighter without a diffuser.

The eye is drawn to the dual, blueish tips, which "goes with" the color of your car. The goldish inside tone compliments the color of your car.

Why distract the eye with from those pretty things .............. with a bunch of cluttery fins .... ??

I am with Hum. Nothing with dual tip.
Those others look like you are going to back into a giant potato and make massive fries.

As much as I like function over form, unless you are tracking the car I think the diffuser looks too fussy for the road. If anything look at other rear bar options like the full TRD Japan one.

FR-Sky · 07-13-2016, 07:08 AM

Aggressive.

Ashikabi · 07-13-2016, 08:40 AM

1

DarkSunrise · 07-13-2016, 08:48 AM

The rear end looks cleanest with no diffuser.

But if you track the car and need the aero, I'd go with #1.

Summerwolf · 07-13-2016, 08:49 AM

TRD one if anything, but the first two look incredibly busy. Are you tracking the car? If so that would make sense to have such an aggressive diffusor.

Requires the TRD Exhaust to be run. I looked at it.

To the OP, I would suggest the second option (Driveway labs V1) if you don't plan on tracking a lot/don't like such an aggressive look. I personally love the V3, but plan on custom making my own so I haven't upgraded. You will see an improvement over not having one. When it first came out, I remember people noting up to 5mpg gain on the highway with the V1, and was noted to be worth a little over a second on the track. Can't go wrong with either

I've seen threads where they have been adapted to other exhausts. Either way, it is a cleaner look. Doesn't cover quite the same space though.
