Exhaust Systems

I'm curious about what everyone's opinion is about what the best exhaust system is. Comptech Axle, Comptech Catback, Greddy Evo 2, Apexi WS, HKS Draggers, Neuspeed, Tanabe, The whole magnaflow setup, and any others that havnt been listed. Im curious which people think the best is in terms of, price, preformance, sound, and look/quality. Thanks everyone

i personally loved the HKS draggers i had on my TL, i think price wise and looks wise they are great. im not a big fan of the comptech cuz they look too stock to me, but some people are going for that look. one of my customers just got the apexi ws for their prelude from me and they really liked it, but then again that wasnt for a TL. if you really want a catback the cheapest is the apexi.

I just bought an APEXi WS catback and I LOVE the way it looks and sounds and the price was right at $355, but don't expect to find it that cheap. I lucked out on Ebay!

im going with the comptechs. i dont want it to look stock but i like the ability to interchange between the stock sound and louder rumble with the quiet tip insert. i do alot of driving from ny to md and back so on the highway its real annoying. i used to have a greddy on my accord. on highways it suxxxxxxxxxx

magnaflow setup is the best if you have a TL-P in term of performance. now look is a matter of personal preference. the magnaflow setup is pretty cheap for a cat-back setup too (around 500$)

i was thinking of going cheap and getting a free flow cat. w/some borla, or flowmaster exhausts. is this counter productive since im not going w/larger piping? is there a borla muffler that will even fit?
anyone?

Someone on here has the neuspeed exhaust and they said that it has a nice deep tone. It kinda looks like the mugen exhaust set up.

WHY? Explain that to me...I was thinking of either the Comptech or the Tanabe, but if they are pointless I'm not buying anything.

A catback might yield about 5 whp. The main reason for a new exhaust is for sound purposes.
