So I may be moving into a nicer development with HOA and would like not to look like an *** hat with my loud *** 4 cylinder ricer (joke) but also don’t want to sell the car either.

What are some exhaust options currently on the market that you guys can recommend WHILE also flowing as much as possible. Would like to make 800whp as efficiently as I do now (if that’s possible)

 

Whata ya running now so we can use that as the baseline?

The old standard use to be the RRE stealth. Not sure anymore?

Definitely something w/a mid pipe resonator & a rear muffler

Being that youre pushing a lot of WHP, you are likely not interested in a hi-flow CAT?

Last tip. DONT MOVE!

 

Oh yeah forgot to put that. I’m running Tomei expreme ti exhaust and an un resonated test pipe. My tuner acts like even throwing a resonated test pipe on the car will hinder my power / tune but I can’t tell if he’s just being dramatic lol.

 

 

^ It definitely works...

 

I run a tanabe Medallion, it's plenty quiet while also sounding throaty. Gets through my neighborhood fine even when late at night.

Then I have an electronic cutout at the downpipe when I want to sound nasty and make power.

this is my setup. it's still loud

 

I'll get mine installed eventually. Lol

 

FWIW - i had an electronic cutout like that on my m3 that open just before the rear mufflers - one day, it stopped working and was stuck open. lol

 

Wire up a cable to lever and mount it next to your trunk release. Lol

 

Also running a Medallion. Fantastic exhaust, very nice tone and not obnoxiously loud.

 

Tanabe Medallion exhaust has a taper inside the muffler. If I remember correctly (11-12 years ago) , it tapers down to around 2.65” .

Inline 3” cutout . It will bolt right inline between two 2 bolt flanges. No cutting or modification of the exhaust . Well it’s about an inch thick , so it might push the the exhaust back slightly but better than spending more money on trying different exhausts or cutting up a nice light exhaust you have now.

 

The Varex mentioned may be one your best options for best of both. If you want an instal it and forget it exhaust: supposedly the HKS Hi Power is one of the best quiet to power ratios. I used to have one and it didn't seem THAT quiet one it was used for a few years but it was quieter than most and still produces good power. I didn't like the look though. Fujitsubo Legalis R is supposed to be one of the quietest, but will definitely cost you power, especially at higher levels.

 

Do you have any personal experience with these? I've been considering ordering one to play with, but haven't heard any decent reviews. Mostly just don't want it to get stuck open after a month of use lol.
