Hey guys, looking for new exhaust, most of them out there claim 10-15% gains in hp. That and price aside, which gives the thoatiest sound.

Sounds clips would highly be apprciated...

I've heard JDN's Remus...kicks ass

Any other out there...

Please post as many as possible...thanks guys

On a side note, I am know collecting Carbaflo from dealer since they have no other solution for the door seals after 2 repalcements...oh yea...collateral reaplcement is not an option. Tried almost every angle. Dealer only willing to take trade and new car at invoice. Difference of about $8k...

Sound's great, but don't expect a noticeable horsepower or gas mileage boost.

That's not going to be. Hope for 10 RWHP plus 30 lb. weight savings--maybe the equivalent of 15 flywheel HP max. B&B very throaty with nothing but nice sounds unless "accelerating" in 6th below 1,750 RPM.

SA giving tubes of carbaflow evertime I want it...no questions asked. This will cost them less than me showing up for service or some other crap I've been thru for the seal problem. At $60 a tube, it's worth the call and trip.

Borla ... good deep throat at low rpms and nice grumble at higher revs.

So far, I'm enjoying the rumble of the B&B and Remus...still waiting on the AC Schnitzer sound clip. Thanks for the info. Any noticeable difference when taking off from a stop?
