Greddy SP2 because I have one in stock and need to sell it




Haha, besides that, my dual exit favs are the Fujitsubo Legalis R (installing one on Sun so detailed pics coming soon), Tanabe medallion touring and A'pexi WS2!

That's a very relative question. Do you define "best" as best sounding, best looking, or best performing?


The first two definitions are obviously subjective. I personally love the look and sound of my Comptech exhaust. It has a deep note, and I prefer the thicker and smaller, less obtrusive exhaust tips compared to other catbacks.

In terms of power, you gain very little from a catback (maybe 4-5whp). However, the catbacks from Mugen, J's, and Feels are made from titanium so there will be noticeable weight savings over their aluminum counterparts (IIRC around 20-25lbs). However, titanium catbacks are considerably more $$$ and don't yield any additional power improvements.

Amuse is sweet.

One option for dual outlet,
Two options for single outlet,
Three choices of tip finishes.

Nice variety too.

I get compliments on the look and sound of my Tanabe Hyper Medallion on my '07. Deep & burbly especially on downshifts!

One is actually the R1 (single) - loud, lightest, performance, pretty
2 is the Euro-W (dual) - quieter than R-1, little heavier, same look
and 3 is the Euro-S (single) - assuming this one is quieter than R-1 also and has a more comparable weight to the R-1

My importer is telling me that Amuse is basically such fanstastic craftsmanship that, well, you could probably feel a little guilty acutally bolting it to a car.
