MXP Exhaust vs Perrin Exhaust - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Was wondering people's opinion on these two exhaust. I've done alot of research on Perrin exhaust and people seem to like the no drone issue which I am looking for. In terms of sound I just want a refined exhaust. For future mods I don't plan on adding much but was looking at adding a frontpipe in the near future (High Flow Catted). Thanks!

I installed my new Perrin Catback exhaust today. I can tell you that this exhaust is very refined and mature. It's certainly louder than stock during acceleration, but it's by no means loud. It's just right. Very deep and rumbly. Not ricey or high pitched. When decelerating or diving at a constant speed the engine is no louder than stock. The stock exhaust doesn't really have any character but this does. The sound alone made it worth the money. As far as power gains, the dyno certainly shows there are some. But I didn't really notice anything significant. Maybe 5% if that. Headers + header-back is where the real gains are made.

Install was a piece of cake, plenty of clearance all around. I didn't have to fight with it to get it to fit. I was time consuming but only because I took my time getting the car up on 4 jack stands. The install itself took 20 minutes with 2 people.

Can't speak for the MXP but there is no reason anyone should be disappointed with the Perrin.
