Default Need Exhaust

so i'm trying to post without sounding like a complete DA when it comes to s2ks.

I'm looking for exhaust, prefer dual but would possibly go for a single.

I know the pros and cons between the two.

I don't want it loud, I just want it to sound more aggressive but also have a clean sound. Nothing RASPY at all. As deep as possible.

As far as power is concerned, i don't really care about the gains, just no losses.

NOW, for the catch. I don't want to spend more than $400.


Anything fit the criteria????????

~Thanks

Not unless you can find one used or slightly damaged. Most cheap systems will be loud. I have not heard a quiet one yet.

Fujitsubo would probably be you best bet for sound and price should be around 750.00-850.00.

Sorry man

You can get the Apex-i N1 or GT for ~$400 range (used). The HKS Hi-Power goes for ~$450 range used as well if you prefer dual.

I don't think all of your requirements will be met with a $400 budget.

I would go to a shop and have them make you a custom 3" exhaust piping and get them to mate it to a muffler of your choice. Should be within your budget.

My car just has the stock cat, a resonator, and then straight piped. It looks stock, but with no mufflers under there, I think it has a good sound. I wouldn't call it "deep", but then again, when I think of a "deep" sound, I think V8. LOL

i agree with the HKS hipower suggestion. It's a great sounding exhaust, very quiet, pretty understated -looks wise, and is 400-450 used.

My advice to you would be to save your money so you can get something better, remember you get what you pay for..
