no offense
man but i jus want to make a few points...1. the rear section is only like 300 plus shippin msrp....2.with a 7th gen, u cant expect to gain more than jus decibels unless u do a swap or some major motor work. its jus a fact that our gen is slow..3.the guy with the 60 dollar coffee can is a ricer... jus save up and buy somethin with some quality and reputation..4. with a stock 7th gen, u wont notice any more difference with a full cat back over an axleback...5. a good full catback system runs about 600 so we pay half the price n get half the product....6.hks only makes this rear section for our gen, so it cant be too bad...7. this site isnt here to flame ppl, n dont take this as flaming, cuz i honestly am not tryin to be mean..

wow that list got kinda long

pwned. Nice lowlife lol. Stepping up for the people that don't have all day to sit here and post.

ok, so it looks nice on supra's and any other car that isnt a ricer. ill have to dig up some pics from when my exhuast was angled. ok my car is clean and simple with a angled exhuast. next time take a pic of the 7th gen with his angled exhuast. cant be much uglier then your striaght exhuast.

imo i think angled looks good and straight is alright too. ive seen some angled exhaust and it looks good but too angled looks ugly(meaning if it looks like it pointed straight to the sky).

btw my exhaust is slightly angled and i think i looks clean

Ive never liked angled exhausts. I think it looks ok on maybe 1 or 2 supras ive seen, and an STi maybe, but thats it.

I paid 125 for my tsudo catback and its louder and not as bee can sounding. If you dont want a exhuast out to the side and want to spend 500 then tsudo is the way to go!
