After Market Exhausts- Opinion

i would just like a few opinions on the matter of aftermarket exhausts.

GReddy vs ATLP vs TL-S(oem) vs Borla vs Magnaflow

thanks,


and for the GReddy, which i am leaning toward, is there a way to make it not as loud, cuz it looks so badass, but its wayyyy too loud. i just want it to be loud enough to tell i have exhaust and when i throttle it

some pics would be nice, especially if it is a Carbon Grey Pearl

Here's some pics of my GReddy:






My favorite exhaust of all time. GReddy FTW! I was torn between this and the ATLP, but I ended up going with what I wanted from the start. Regarding reducing the noise of the exhaust...you can resonate it, since it comes as a straight pipe. Members: lembowski, and jetblakTL have done it...ask them about it! As for me...I'm staying original, if I can help it!

Hey princelybug, did you have any issues installing the exhaust on the TL-S? I'm gonna be installing mine this week.

There are pictures of other exhausts all over this forum. Do a search; hard work builds character.

Comptech is the way to go if you dont want it too loud. Very deep, refined tone, I like it a lot. Get compliments on mine all the time.

^^I think Excelerate/Billy Boat is very close to Comptech in overall sound/appearance, but with somewhat higher quality.

which would be the quietest for cruising (no droning)? Excelerate's or ATLP? along with ATLP's Jpipe.

xlr8 has the resonated one... which would in all likelyhood reduce cabin drone...
mike's working on a resonated atlp option

Yeah man, I and a fellow forum member just had a floor jack, and the OEM tire jack, with some jackstands. We lifted the car, and it was a direct bolt on. The bends are the same, and the hangers fit like a charm!
