I'm Diggin' the Greddy intake and Evo3 exhaust combo.

I now have the Greddy intake and the Evo3 exhaust installed and my FR-S performs much better than stock. The intake also makes the Evo3 come more alive in sound and note. I even still have the silencers in the exhaust. Soon I'll take them out and give it a try. With the Greddy intake, the Evo3 exhaust, and the lighter Enkei Fujin 17"x 7.5" wheels, the FR-S now feels like a real sports car!

The Evo3 is so loud though that you can't really hear the intake... if you want the performance gains Evo3 + a filter would do fine, and if you just want the sound the Evo3 is fine.
but I agree the combination is pretty badass.

Hey guys, I installed the Greddy CAI about a month ago and now I'm looking for an exhaust. I really want to go with the Evo3 aswell but I have a few questions... is it compatible with other midpipes? How is it after you've spent some time with it? Thanks

Just by looking at the design, I would say no it isn't compatible. I'm not sure I just put it on, but so far it's great.

Do you have a tune? I heard some people losing horsepower when going with a CAI without a tune, not sure if it was GReddy or another company (might have been Airaid or Perrin). I was so close to buying one but I don't want be out $300 when I remove it when I eventually go turbo/SC

Just heard one of these today and it sounded good...but loud without the silencers.

The intakes may lose HP without a tune. We did a prototype intake as well as some of the off the shelf ones, and despite the same tube diameter all threw off the tune significantly. Perrrin came in the closest.
