Question Best exhaust for 03 tl-s is?

So I really want some horses gained through getting a new exhaust system. I know that the ATLP cat back is pretty popular. Also, I know the COMPTECH axleback is popular as well. Can anybody suggest which exhaust system would be the best to invest in for most gains? Thanks.

there's always an alternative to comptech.

if you're lucky, you can find the XS-Power ones being sold.. those are a hit and a miss but never heard a lot of complaints.. a

or megans.....

and DC Sports have headers as well.

i'd prefer dc sports headers over megans anyday.. but the fact of the matter is that they are on backorder right now if i remember correctly.

headers aren't a thousand dollars, and if you are looking at adding ponies by installing an aftermarket exhaust, don't do axleback, those are solely for aesthetics and sound. very little to no gains with axlebacks.
