Ok, ive been looking at exhause system for about a month now and i really want the Greddy ti-c exhaust system, but i have heard that certain systems will provide a greater horsepower gains. i would like opinions on which exhaust systems provide the greatest horsepower gains, and which systems i should steer away from.

thanks

You should get one that attaches to a turbo. Otherwise, it just makes more noise. Any horsepower gains will be so meager they aren't worth discussing. We're talk 5-8hp here on an N/A motor. That is nothing. It's pointless, but ppl do it anyways.

Mine original exhaust was welded to the header, making it one huge p.o.s. that kept breaking loose and having exhaust leaks. So I had to replace mine. I went with Circuit Sports. The quietest, most discreet looking catback I could find.

Buddy Club II, loud and obnoxious as hell, but I like it. Very little HP gain tho.... maybe like 2 hp

im guessing the least restirctive and loudest would likely be the best for hp gains . but alot of noise for a few hp may not be worth it
