I'd get the lip if I were you. Exhaust gets annoying after a while if it's pretty loud. Greddy is probably the quietest tho, so you got that going for you.

I think the lip is too subtle to be worth the money. I can scrape those parking space concrete things even without the lip or a drop, wouldnt want to have that there. My vote is for the exhaust. When i got mine, i did notice a slight torque loss but the sound is worth it.

yeah, the 2.x's feel dead till about 4,500rpms with 2.5" catback

I just put a stock muffler onto my 2.5" piping and it actually feels pretty good. Still a little louder than stock piping.

greddy sp

I got mine about a week ago and have nothing bad to say about it. Even though mine was 500 it is an absolute steal at 270. Also our mufflers are notorious for having piping rot out so if your interested in maintaining as well as appearance go for the greddy.

Like i always said, if u have a 2.x it aint even worth tryin to make it fast, unless u get an H22, i'd just go for the looks.

hahaha :rotfl:

the thing that sucks is that im not gunna have a chance on either of these again for this cheap ...

i scrap enough now so im kinda worried about the lip ... only thing is it looks so swweeet

and the SP well i know the hp is negligable (sp?) but i would enjoy a little more growl at the throttle

hmmm think im leanin towards lip

if you want to go for the most looks for your money at the moment then get the exhaust... looks and sound and perhaps even some hp.

I like the lip too but if you can only get one then get the exhaust an then just get the lips some other time... I'm also worried about fucking it up on those cement parking blocks since I sometimes run into them and my car isn't lowered yet.... and I wonder when I get it lowered... AND if I get the lip then I gotta be EXTREMELY careful when parking.

Go for the exhaust at the moment is my choice... looks like a GREAT price. :bigclap:

If I were you get a buyer for the one that you aren't buying and sell it on here for a couple extra bucks. That way neither deal gets passed up. I'd be game if I had some money but i don't.

go for the exhaust. 270 for a full catback is a steal. i have the lip and 200 for the lip seems a lil' much.. i got mine for $140 free shipping. i'm not exactly sure where, it's been a while. the lip does make a big difference, you might not think so in pictures, but in person, it makes it look a lot nicer. it's not really aggressive but i think it sets the car off, if you CANNOT judge the distance of your front end.. then i don't suggest ever buying the lip cuz what's the point if you're gonna break it in a week anyways?

Kinda gettin' sick of my fucking obnoxiously loud exhaust (1.5 years now)!

However, the lip always looks great and complements our front end perfectly.

BTW: Getting a free paint job makes the choice a "no brainer"!

Exhaust. The Greddy SP is known to be quiet.

Lip is nice, but first things first.
