Contemporaneous exhaust options?


Recommended Posts

It seems like Nividia and Borla are the only real options for gt wagons any more, no? I liked the Greddy option but, that seems to be long discontiued. Every Q300 video I've seen someone exclaims "its so loud!" at some point. Is the Borla reasonable volume? What say you? Is there deep toned, power enabling, not obnoxious options available still?

I just had a local exhaust shop install magnaflow knock off's with Dyna-Max tips I bought from a local Speed Shop. Next time I would buy the shorter tips.

 

They cut the inlet pipes and flanges off the old Pro Lab Tuning mufflers and welded them on to the knock off mufflers.

 

The exhaust is not much louder then stock on the highway, zero drone. Car has a catted DP to a stock midpipe.

 

The last photo is from when the knock off's were installed back in 2013.

I have no experience here, but have been collecting snippets of info regarding wagon exhausts from posts over the past few years. I had this in my notes:

 

"Have you considered shopping for mufflers you really like and want, such as Magnaflow or Borla, etc? Good ones can be had for ~$225 apiece, add in a Vibrant reso (~$85) and take it all down to your local custom exhaust shop and have them make you a nice mid and Y combo (one or two piece, your choice)."

You'll also have to buy tips. Buy good ones and they will last for many years. here's a quick search.
