Nameless axleback vs Perrin catback?
I've been watching tons of videos on the Nameless axleback and 3'' Perrin but I can't decide which exhaust to get. I've also had my eye on the greddy evo 3 but not sure..
This is my first post so I'm not sure if im doing this right but what the hell. |

Welcome!
In terms of the exhaust system, anything other than a header is not going to give you a power increase. It's only going to change the sound of your car. So the questions become: how loud do you want your car to sound?, what other plans do you have for your exhaust in the future? (this helps determine what axle-back you may get), and what is your budget? Nameless has great quality exhaust options, as does Perrin. I believe Perrin is a little quieter than Nameless so perhaps it's a better option for DD? Also, why the 3" Perrin? Do you want to go FI in the future? Personally, I went for something cheap and loud: the Nameless track pipe. |

Nameless & Perrin both are great brand and top build quality. can't go wrong with either one.

Perrin might be a good option for you then. Since you're eventually planning to go turbo, check out some of the FI threads and see what exhaust systems come up.

Perrin has some of the best support in the aftermarket world on this car. And they stand behind all of their products.
Nameless also are great guys. Tough choice as always.

We installed the 3" unresonated Perrin on our Time Attack car and what can I say other than v-bands and perfect fitment even though I have a different turbo kit and midpipe. I have a 60 Trim .82 turbocharger and with that the sound is just right. I wouldn't call it loud or quiet, right in the middle.
I would post a vid or some pictures but our race car is under the knife as usual. Thanks, Phil Grabow |

I recently installed the Perrin Catback Exhaust and it sounds just as everyone has pointed out, medium rumble, which sounds like what u are looking for.
I recommend the Perrin over Nameless. |
