Depends

I would highly recommend going with what your tuner has the most experience with.

The tuning will only be as good as your tuner's experience with the tool.

Both the Xede & Utec are pretty good piggy-backs, but again go with what tuner uses the most.


As for TB, go with what you like, most are fairly similuar and it comes down to personal preference.

Perrin makes a really nice TB exhaust, as well as AMS. In terms of piggy-back, definitely go with a UTEC or XEDE. I would strongly recommend that u talk to ur local tuner shop and see what they can offer in terms of tuning because they might be stronger in one area. I would check with them first to see what they have to offer. Good luck bro!

XEDE and Buschur exhaust. With a little bit of RTFM and some mechanical aptitude, this would be a complete DIY - an afternoon or two in your garage. No need to "tune" (other than loading the right base map) unless you don't have the stock intake anymore.

TurboXS on both.

I have not seen better quality/price on anything else out there.

I am using an Apexi N1 downpipe and cat-back. Not to expensive. Both pipes are coated and has a low sound.

Xede all the way, with the Active control stuff comming out soon, you will kick yourself for not getting the Xede!!!! I have the RMR exhaust and am happy with it.
