I have been shopping around for an exhaust because there are a limited number, but there are enough to make the choice difficult. Here is my opinion and what Ive been able to find and what I think I am ordering on Tuesday Greddy Spectrum Elite: [video=youtube;wJj96NI5B3A]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wJj96NI5B3A&NR=1[/video] Greddy Ti-C [video=youtube;sZ_4xiO1awg]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sZ_4xiO1awg&feature=related[/video] Tsudo N1 [video=youtube;2OVwj0RkaYY]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2OVwj0RkaYY[/video] HKS High Power [video=youtube;PFLFbyZ2WoY]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PFLFbyZ2WoY[/video] Magnaflow [video=youtube;J0n1w22WiDI]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J0n1w22WiDI&feature=related[/video] I havent heard the Borla.. Not even sure if its out yet (I have a Borla Cat back on my Wrangler and I love it) For ME, the best sounding one was the GReddy SE and thats the one I'm ordering on Tuesday. I HATE the rice burner sound of the HKS and Magnaflow. I like a more mellow throaty grumble that sounds like it has balls, not like it's balls are being squished.
What brass said....aaannnnddd Truthfully...those are not the true sounds of the exhaust. If the engine is warmed up....so about 6-10 mins of idleing....the exhaust sound is actually deeper or ricier. Most of these are a deeper sound when the engine is actually warm and the rpm's are at normal.
haha retard moment sorry... I was lookin up Intakes when I started posting ::duh:: Damn tried to change it to exhaust comparisons....
Hmmm..Now I'm reallllllly torn.. I was one click from ordering the Greddy SE when I saw that Hi Power Motorsports had another exhaust for the 09 GTS... The DC Sports Stainless Exhaust http://www.hipowermotorsports.com/d...s_steel_exhaust_systems/scs6013/i-290279.aspx I have a cousin who has been around the block in the tuner world a few times and he swears by DC sports (gave me the whole history of the company...) But the MUCH lower price tag actually scares me... $260 vs $432 for the Greddy. Has anyone seen, heard, or know someone who has seen or heard the DC exhaust?
They are both good quality companies. I have only had the greddy exhaust on a 2003 civic si I owned years ago, I believe the cat back I had was called sp2 or something like that. It was rather quiet but nice and I never has quality issues with it. As far as DC I have as other parts but never a exhaust, and the parts I had where on a track Integra(road course) I had and I never had any failure with them.
