Reddit mentions: The best automotive exhaust cat-back systems

Handling: Racing Beat makes great springs. Drop the car only .75 inches but improves handling well. If you don't like the idea of lowering the car, this is a good way to go. Also, a rear sway bar helps a lot, you can get that for like $200 I think. Racing Beat makes one as well. Probably the best bang for your buck mod there is for the car.

Exhaust: a Magnaflow catback would be about $600 new, but the OBX axle backs aren't nearly that expensive and sound nice still

Under $300 new. THey are meant for the v6 but work with the 4cyl 6i that you have as well apparently:

You will need to lift the car to do any exhaust work, but that just takes a jack and jack stands as well as some wrenches. Maybe some wd-40 or PB blaster to help you loosen those nuts. You'd essentially just be screwing parts off and on and removing them from the hangers, it's nothing complex.

hahaha yeah the front plate is all wrinkled from when it was on my truck...that kissed a snow bank. I'm think I just need to order some fresh plates.

  I currently have LUX angel eyes which are dim during the day and I'm swapping them for the Alpine HID kit

I have a 2016 base model SR5 and first i installed the TRD Cold Air Intake and with just the intake i felt like i could feel the difference in power, you can definitely hear the difference from the stock intake to the TRD CIA.

Its supposed to give you better MPG but because of the sound it makes when you really step on it you wanna floor it all the time so my MPG went down lol.

Then i got the Borla Catback exhaust and honestly its only a little bit louder then stock but you can hear the difference and it did add a little more power i feel. I researched on some different forums before i got it and it seems like a good amount of people preferred the Borla over other brands.

Supposedly if you do those two mods together it can add anywhere from 5-20 Horsepower. For both mods it set me back about 1000 dollars. Heres the links to wear i got them.

If you want to stick with single exit here's an excellent alternative to Tomei. Greddy is pretty good quality:

Invidia's kit has a very exotic growl to it

DNA Motoring is on the budget side, it's a replica of Ark's Grip kit. This is actually the kit that I'm running on my car with test pipes and I couldn't be happier. Plus it's very inexpensive so scraping and bumping it doesn't bother me, if a hole develops I'll just swap in a new kit.

It seems to me that you care more about sound than performance, so it doesn't really matter which one you choose in that aspect. Look up some YouTube videos on these and pick your poison. I hope this helped a bit

i have the corsa cat-back xtreme for my 2014, i love it. not sure if it will fit on a 2015 though.

when i picked it up from my mechanic he commented on how nice of a system it was, i value his opinion very highly so it was nice to hear a professional thought it was a good system.

edit: not my video but here's a sound clip of it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8SQ7ThWjaxk

Thanks! The guy that dipped mine also used DYC, I think it turned out pretty well.

I put a link to the exhaust I put on it below. I wanted something performant but not obnoxiously loud. It has a nice sound, really deep and bassy but doesn't wake the neighbors.

I have https://www.amazon.com/Gibson-17303-Split-Rear-Exhaust/dp/B000ZIZCVE on my JKUR. It was on it when I bought it. It's cool and sounds alright. The tips point down a little bit on mine. My opinion on sound is not good though because I came out of a 2014 Mustang GT that I had modded a good bit.

I picked up the MBRP catback last month and I really like it. Really gives that hemi the throaty rumble while not being too over the top IMO. Another reason I chose it was because it doesn't require any welding. Check out some videos on YouTube. I picked mine up off of Amazon in the following link. Don't be fooled by Amazon's compatibility warning, I called the manufacturer and they confirmed it would work on my ram (2018 hemi sport crew cab 4x4). Plus it's on my truck right now so there's that too lol.

That's the 3" tip double wall. I love the look compared to the 4" single wall. But the size and wall are up to the buyer's style.

I had this system on my 2012...it sounded amazing:

Best setup if you're serious about sound and some extra power.

I have a Borla Hush on my 06 WRX. It's similar to the one you posted, but it has dual tips. It's supposed to be quieter than most other aftermarket exhausts, but I think it's plenty loud as it is. It has a really nice 'rumbly' sound, but it's not going to annoy your neighbors if you're driving by at 25mph. I think this is the one: http://www.amazon.com/Borla-140053-Cat-Back-System-Exhaust/dp/B000CIMCB0/ref=pd_sim_sbs_auto_1?ie=UTF8&refRID=17A238P3HR7FE21Q6P8Q

EDIT: It's hard to get a feel for the sound with a video, but here's an 02 with a Hush: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q2fgjolrlHU

I have Magnaflow cat-back that I love. Doesn't drone. I wanted the one that exits in front of the rear wheel, but I have those little pop-out side steps so I couldn't get that one. Took me an hour to bolt it on in my driveway.

I got it on Amazon and it shpped really quick.

Amazon. Only $624 with prime. Great deal for CAI and exhaust. Roush sells the exhaust alone for 655 on their site amazon kit
