exhausts Well i have been experimenting with exhausts now for a few months and have came to the conclusion that they do absolutely nothing for power and theres not one exhaust for our car I like for the sound either. I have tried magnaflow, and greddy so far. They both sound terrible and make our cars ricey as hell. WHat does everyone think? I have went back to stock exhaust and think that just an intake sounds fine. I'm not really looking for performance anymore and I just want a nice sound and to look good. I think that no one should buy an exhaust for our cars, its totally not worth the money and the sound for most of them is just awful.
it depends though on what kind of sound your looking for. i was planning to go with custom piping and apexi universal muffler, but im not looking for performance much but i do care about the sound of my car. i heard good stories about the apexi world sport exhaust and rsr ex mag exhaust sounds quiet and not loud if thats what your looking for?

I have the Thermal R&D rear section and it sounds just a tad bit louder than stock. The sound compliments the intake sound quite well and it's really mellow at idle. Sorry to say though that it's been discountinued for some time now.

Rep Power: 0 hks isnt too loud but others can tell you have an exhaust looks really nice and is a lot cheaper than most catbacks since its only in axleback form but really doesnt matter bc you will see similar gains lol

My magnaflow sounds completely different if youre outside the car rather than if you are driving it. Inside, it sounds quiet but outside, it has a deeper pitch to it and people say that it doesnt sound like a fart cannon. Im pretty satisfied with it.
