Good to know about the Greddy. Well HKS necks down to the stock cat size. Creates a restriction when you run a 3" cat or test pipe.

Was this with or without a resonator?

I wouldnt consider this a taper. If you have a 3" dp and Tp, then the greddy Ti is just right as it is 3" and expands to 3.15 inches immediatelt....I need to post a picture of this sometime...

I have the Ultimate racing tbe, and it is remarably quiet and clean sounding. And IMHO better sounding than the Greddy, HKS, JIC, and BR exhaust (all which I have drivien).

question for David Buschur... how much is your 2.5 inch test pipe? i wonna try my original idea of keeping stock exhaust but get your 2.5 inch axle back and a 2.5 inch test pipe, i have greddy ti TBE but its a bit too loud for my ears for a daily highway driver of around 100 miles a day, plus i wonna be able to hear my music hah.
i was thinkin i'd slap on the greddy ti TBE later on after i get more mods.

thanx

The 2.5" offroad pipe is 304 grade SS, flanges and all. The flanges are 3/8" thick and will bolt in where the stock cat is or up to a 3" catback. It's $95 and comes with the mechanical 02 fix.

We have them instock.

Best bang for buck should be the megan racing exhaust system.... it sounds great on ttp-engineerings.com evo mr.. i am not using megans cat back but im using a br catback with the br muffler, megan racing resonated testpipe,megan racing downpipe, and megan racing 02housing....... before i used ultimate racings test pipe(instead of megans resonated testpipe) and lets jsut say it sounded like a crap......but after the resonated test pipe install it smoothed the buschurs raspy sound out and couldnt be happier..

Hi!
I have an Apexi n1 downpipe, a test pipe and the original cat-back: the sound is a little (very little ) loud than the stock.
Ciao
