HEy fellas,
I am currently looking upgrade my exhaust system and there are plenty of options to choose from. I've done alot of research and spent countless hours listening to youtube revs and drivebys of the various systems to the point where they all were starting to sound the same lol. I know alot of this is personal preference when it comes to sound so its going to make things even more complicated. Here is what I am looking to get in the near future on my TL-S:
J-pipe & catback exhuast
( i'll have to tackle PCD/HFPC options later and i know some of you may say to do it first d/t most gains )

There are so many good options to choose from but I'm hoping y'all can give me some insight. I currently have my deposit down for the RV6 catback & non-x-merge j-pipe combo as this is the final batch. But I am still open to suggestions. The dyno results i've come across have PCD/HFPCD included so it gives me a ball park figure as to what to expect with just the j-pipe and catback.

EndlessRPM has a very budget friendly system but I wish there were more videos/drivebys posted. I believe the systems just got shipped out recently so i'm hoping to get more feedback soon.

Additionally, do you guys recommend to stick with the same brand j-pipe as the catback ? Any advice/tips/suggestions much appreciated.

/thread. Seems like you already made your decision. Don't do Richie dirty by taking back your deposit haha.

Jokes aside, I'll tell you my experience and others for J-Pipes (performance wise).
If you're looking to make top end power, go with ATLP (w/ 3rd cal delete). If you're looking to make more torque down low, go with RV6. I'm not sure if Richie's pipe shifts the powerband or gives gains, but from my experience, I have trouble getting traction down low with his jpipe. If you're looking for a mix of both top end and torque down low, go with XLR8.

I can't comment on exhausts personally because like you, I'm waiting for Richie to finish manufacturing the batch.

 

Richie's exhaust is designed to form an X merge with his j pipe too, something to consider

And his dual setup equates to a single exhaust just over 3".
