Default Which exhaust system did you choose and why?

I know i know, search function and i did.. most thread regarding after market exhausts didnt give me enough info on what i am really looking for.

I have gone through lots of videos on youtube and personally i think those videos just dont do them justice cause of the sound quality,


i am leaning towards Berk's catback and HFS cause they give more of a growl but i wish i can hear one in RL before making any decisions.

so if you dont mind, help me out and throw me a couple of suggestions.

Thanks in advance

I went with HKS because of the Quality and the sound it makes, and it got even better when I put the Fast Intentions Long tube headers on it.... Not to mention the power I made also..... Check my Journal thread it has links to videos that are HD1080p as long as you have a good sound system on your computer it will be orgasmic

Quick question Dan,

how does it sound when you are not pulling it? is it loud in general or pretty quiet unless you put your feet down on the paddle?

I check the vid, they do sound orgasmic but i think i will attract more cops than anything if i get it here

It had a deep exhaust tone when driving under normal conditions, I really wouldnt think that you would get into trouble with this combo aslong as you dont rev infront of cops or drive dumb.

Another good way would be to use the search function, choose to perform an advanced search, use the drop down to indicate "search titles only" and use "journal" as your keyword. The great thing is that there are a number of members that have started journals to chronicle their modding progress so we can live vicariously through their experiences.

Anyways, here's One_Quick_Z's journal:

Fast Intentions. Build quality, look, sound, and I dont think I have ever heard one thing negative said about them ever.

Fast Intentions.
Everyone else was doing it and I love the way the cans are situated. I may change my mind once I get my springs on.
