I'm running a q300 axle, and takeda short ram. This is on a 250 awd. Significantly louder than stock, but it is still quiet compared to most of my friend's cars with their full catbacks. To really get sound of the setup, you'd have give it alot of gas from first to third gear locally. Resting on high rpm's; you'd just heard the engine "whine." You'd have to imput gas while downshifting to get the "blips".

I have Joez axelback, and it's perfect IMO. I stayed away from a full system due to in cabin sound that I did not want. Also, my neighbors already deal with my brothers full race exhaust system on his bmw at 5 am. To me, it's nice and deep yet not overwhelmingly loud which is exactly what I wanted
(Note: I also have the f sport intake)

What you can do is get the axle back first and install it yourself and then determine if you like sound or not, if you want louder then you could order the midpipe. That is what I did. I got mine on eBay and the midpipe with the axle was still the same price if you were to buy them seperately

I ended up getting the JoeZ Axleback and bought it from one of the vendors, ModInJapan. I went with the JoeZ due to the passion and quality that went into their products in addition to the little/lack of drone with the axleback. I'm excited to install it this weekend. I'll post pictures and hopefully videos!

Yes please get some pics and videos! I am still on the debate on which exhaust I want to get. How much you get the JoeZ axle back for?
Not as loud as I would thought then. Which is good.
Really nothing wrong with either one.
It comes down to personal preference. Look, setup, sound.
Price point is very similar too.
PTS JOE Z is made in the USA.
Invidia is made in Taiwan. (doesn't mean its a bad thing)
Hope that helps
