What exhaust and intake combo do you have?
Hey guys and gals,
I am doing a little research for an up coming meet and was wondering if you guys can help by chiming in on what exhaust and intake combo you have. More important is what exhaust set up do you have?
Thanks in advance,
Will
Btw, don't be supprized if you see this question asked in other sections of CL

Joez pipe and stock exhaust 
waiting on the intake compare from the "other" site before commiting to a full intake setup.
also waiting on more exhaust options. We've talked about my concerns about the LMS exhaust so that just leaves tanabe or custom exhaust. Going to see what else comes out before choosing.

oh we just talked about those in person at one of the meets. I was just a bit disappointed at the power gains compared to the advertized ones. Basically the stated power gains were done with a pre-production unit which was changed since it was too loud. The final production unit posted less gains and I don't feel is worth the high price of a full catback system.
Basically from research and seeing/hearing both exhausts I feel the tanabe has a great mild sound but very minimal gains. The LMS has a much louder and aggressive sound and greater gains but the gains aren't enough over the tanabe for me to validate the x2 price difference. So i'm waiting to see what else comes out, if nothing better comes i'll just pick between the LMS and tanabe.

Thanks. I heard (read) something about an HKS and a Borla any info.
I got in a car accident and was planning to trade it in for a diffent color and NAV prior to the accident, when i took it to the dealer they seen the new paint and the crummy work Gene Perez did and would not take it for what they originally quoted so I'm just gonna hook it up. carbon fiber on its way (hood & Trunk) & rims. I need an exhaust and intake but want power not just sound.
