TBE Options

I'll be getting a TBE & tune, etc. in the next few months (yes, English Racing). This is my DD so I don't want it too loud, and especially no droning, and I will use a HFC and muffler of some sort. But it has to flow good, or whats the point?

I'm thinking Cobb, Buschur (heard its loud though...), or AMS. Anyone have one of these systems I could listen to? I'm certainly open to other options too. I'm in the Renton area. thanks!

I am buying a Cobb TBE too. I've done massive research, and Cobb is one of the most quiet 3" exhaust without any taper. It is well worth the price.

Trust JDM Ti? I thought Trust is not going to make those anymore for sometime?

Anyway, if you ask some of the people here (like Alex), he would say go with ETS.

It all depends on you and your budget I would say. The thing is, most of the exhausts are loud, specially the Titanium ones. Performance wise, they should be all the same, roughly, plus minus here and there.

If you still want the list, here you go. (The list goes from the most expensive to the least expensive, performance wise? IDK =p)
1. Amuse
2. ARC
3. Trust/Greddy
4. Tanabe/5zigen/HKS
5. Too many to list haha.

He's looking for someone local with a Cobb or AMS exhaust so he can listen to the car.

You'd be happy with either Cobb or AMS.

What do you mean by get rid of the old set up? Aren't you using the other exhaust not the Trust one?

If this guy buy amuse, he will be 'amuse' by the bluish ti they make. hahahha
