Default Exhaust...Which do you recommend?

Hi guys!

So...I have also been thinking of moding the exhaust. I was thinking Bassani downpipe with High flow cats and x-pipe combo. Now there is also pypes, bbk, FRPPect. Which would you guys recommend for nice tone (not a huge load exhaust kind of guy but more a nice rumble)and performance gains. I was also thinking if I do the bassani I would change the axle backs as well.

Thanks for the input.

Kaiso

P.S. What is up with the search engine? It does not work. Well on my computers any way.

if you want raspy go for an x-pipe. if you want deep an H is better. i just swapped out my mufflers with my stock H and i love the way it sounds. if youre not looking for HP gains and just looknig for sound then i would recommend doing that first. and as far as which sound, check youtube its the best way to find out what you like best

bascially if you go with any of those setups you can't go wrong

as they said X is raspy and H is deep

I love the X-Pipe andBorla Stingers... but there's a ton of great combos out there

If you want a catted X bassani is probably the best! Im running the bassaniX W/borlas and it sounds nice..not overly loud butway more than stock! I actually want more volume now and probably going to O/R pipe real soon! FWIW H-pipes sound better on these cars. you could get a catted H from MRT or put hi-flows on a O/R H pipe...JMO

O/R means off road. There are no cats in it which makes it illegal to use on road. Hence, off road use only.
