Best, Sounding and Performing exhaust for your buck...
I'm new here and I am sure than this thread has come along somwhere. I jsut recently purchased an 06' 8 and i am seriously looking into putting some mods on it. I had looked at a Greddy stage 2 cat back and it looks good but I want to hear what yall think is the best setup for your money, that is louder than the stock, but is deep and mellow and not very ricey. Any input is appreciated.

I have the Racing Beat. It is great sounding, the vids don't really do it any justice. Once you hear it in person, you know it.

^ exactly. you should hear it in person before deciding. I'm fond of the racingbeat and hks exhaust, but again this is all purely objective.
and performance is out of the question with exhausts, you'll get about the same up in hp with all of them.

I run the Cork Sport Power Series.
a little louder than the Borla and looks better too!
But Borla is a great system for the money too.

cept for the Turbo XS....remember, but it's a tad loud I hear. The 3 inch piping helps gain pretty good power, especially for a Turbo car.

I'm on the fense...but Borla is in the lead along with maybe the Turbo XS.

I have decided to get the Racing Beat exhaust, but I also want to get a new racecat. Will that make the car loud?

These are the exhausts out on the market for our car

Borla
B&B
JIC
OBX-R
Greddy Sp2
HKS
RacingBeat
Cork Sport
MAZDASPEED
Tanabe
Espelir
Turbo XS
Hymee

No Matter which one of these you'll get they all have the same HP gains, but the only thing is that some maybe louder than others such as B&B which is probably the loudest....
