Default Alternatives to Meisterschaft

I've been all over YouTube and quite nothing can compare to the GT Haus Meisterschaft exhaust. I wish I could buy it, but I just can't justify spending 4K on the exhaust system.

Does anyone know of any alternatives to this exhaust?

An alternative? How about the oem exhaust system than came with the car? Not to be a smart alek, but man, 4K sounds like a lot for just exhaust. Could it really be that much better? Or is it just the name?

It is a lot, that's why I am looking for alternatives.


There is a clip with one installed on a GS350. I like loud things....

Meister is the only one out there that sounds hellish. Everything else is tame in comparison. JoeZ does it for me though.

This video is not the exact sound this member had the ppe headers done so it sounds really loud.

I feel like if the car isn't running 12''s, it shouldn't sound like it does.

Go to a muffler shop and have them cut off your mufflers and resonators and weld in a straight pipe. Cost me about $150 and sounds loud and aggressive.

Cheaper than spending $4k + on a meisterschaft or any axle back + midpipe combo
