GReddy Sp Elite or Nameless Performance?

Hey guys, I'm on the market for an axle-back. Since I already have an intake I'm not too worried about gains from the exhaust. If I get the NP exhaust it would be 4" mufflers. I love how both look so it's all down to sound for me. Can anyone tell me how they sound compared to one another? I want it loud but not so loud that I can't hear my music or think haha. Thank in advance!

I like the Greddy more but for the money you might as well go w/ the q300 only like 100$ more and full cat back or N1 which is louder

I say the Nameless setup. Support local small shops that hand build everything here in the states. Jason and the gang are on here to answer any question you have. That right there should be a good reason to go with NP.

I don't doubt the quality of the exhaust. Every video I've seen I end up really liking it. I'm just wondering if the sound in person will be enough for me with the 4" muffler option. I'm also on the edge about doing force induction in the future so the 3" may not be a bad idea... what would the side effects be if I end up getting the 3" axle-back but decide not to get forced induction?

I have one of their earlier setups( not sure what cans are on there) and it sounds awesome. fitment was second to none. Maybe someone near you has one of their setups that you could go for a hotlap in to see what you think.

I'm actually going to a twins meet this Saturday. Hoping to get a peek at their rears and see if anyone has a NP installed so I can see which options I would like when I order mine.

I'm leaning more towards the NP and Greddy. The price range is unmatched for the quality of their exhausts. It's all coming down to which sounds the best for me. I'm looking at Invidia's site and it seems to be going for at least $200+ more for their set.

i have the greddy sp elite and it's awesome. It gives it a nice low rumble without being obnoxiously loud for a daily driver car. Looks awesome and the build quality is 100%. I picked it up in a group buy for $530 shipped. I don't plan on boosting or anything so i had no need for anything more. HP and torque gains are small but a little is better than nothing

I'm considering the Greddy exhaust as well but I heard if you plan on boosting, it'll be troublesome and I may have to replace it. I'd rather get an exhaust that'll function with any setup as long as I add on to it.

I second that.
Would love to hear some input from anyone.

If that's the case, I vote on the Greddy EVO 3 instead, it will flow nice with a turbo and is really good with NA as well. Keeping the silencers on the car, it is quiet enough, and when you want it loud on track days take the silencers off. Simple as that. Plus, turbo lowers the exhaust sound a little, so no more worries once you go turbo. WIN!
