Exhaust Upgrade

I have a 250 F-Sport with a Greddy Air Intake and want to upgrade my exhaust. I started saving up for the exhaust and I have enough to either buy the axle back or the midpipe first. Anyone have a stock 250 with either Invidia Q300 Axle back or Invidia mid pipe? I am going to eventually buy the other half but for now I want something to give my car that extra boost in sound. Which would be a better choice to go with first and does anyone have any sound clips? Thanks!

I'd say start with Axle back first. Why not save up for more to get the whole cat back if you are planning to complete it anyways? You'll save some $$$ buying the package instead of buying each individual piece at a time.

I would think that buying each piece on sale would equate (somewhat) buying a whole cat back. Plus if the actual cat back goes on sale, which it eventually will, then you still save even more. I'm waiting for those opportunities.

Anyways, here's one:

I'd say axle back would give more sound but not 100% on that.

Take a look at the older gen, should be comparable since it's the same engine:

I want to upgrade mine too. I was looking in to invidia q300 but looking for something similar to a 2013-2014 subaru sti exhaust sound. Any suggestion?
