Which exhaust has the most gains?
 

I'm noticing some of them say cat back.. which I know what that is... but i'm speaking in terms of header back I guess?

Just curious... it looks like the FI exhaust gets the most gains.

All are cat back and you just get a test pipe/HFC for header back. Pretty much all test/HFC are the same.

Yes FI has the most recorded gains with Stillen a close 2nd.

For NA, its FastIntentions

yeah, that's what I really want to go with... the whole system. I can't do it right now, but hopefully soon. My Fiancee also likes the tone of the exhaust... she's into cars like me and used to have an Evo the same time I did lol.

I loved the sound of F.I. CBE, but after I added F.I. HFC I find the sound too loud now and borderline 'ricer'

It's difficult to have any type of conversation in the car now without having to shout over the exhaust.

In retrospect I think I would have just left it at the F.I. CBE and not added the HFC.

Just my 2 cents...

is there a more quiet exhaust with good gains? I certainly don't want a loud exhaust.

also... i've seen people with 18" resonators on their exhaust... doesn't that make it more quiet?

Any of the aftermarket CBE will have gains. The Berk & Stillen CBE's aren't too bad, volume wise. I have the Borla and its pretty close to stock' sound levels at idle. Once you get on it though, I would say it's a little more than twice as loud as stock. It has more of a "growl" compared to the others I've heard.

yeah, I don't want to have to yell over the exhaust like the other guy said he has to do over his FI exhaust.

Exoticspeed PWR-SI - that's what I have. Very quiet in idle/cruise, but loud when you floor it. Not many people here have it, but I love it on my car and I get nothing but good remarks on the looks and the sound.

This is an old picture - the system now comes with X-Pipe, otherwise looks the same

No dyno figures, but it's essentially modeled off of the Amuse system so go and figure.

Looks like an invidia without the x pipe......

Dam, i dont even want to know what the ARK with Non Resonated Test Pipes is going to sound like in the cabin.

My GF is gonna hateeee it ha

Get the FI with 18" resonators and keep the cats--you will be fine

I have seen some of my customers have recommended the stock cats and the CBE with 18" resonators. This combination should be more than quiet enough for you.

Weather you are ready to make a purchase now or down the road, please do not hesitate to call me now with any questions that you may have...

Thank you, Tony

won't using the stock cats hold back the power a lot?
