Poll: Which Exhaust Should I get

Alright, I've decided to buy exhaust for my next mod. I see too many shitty Celicas and Scions with exhaust, I feel left out

Here are the ones I'm looking at. I want a deeper sound, not a high pitched ricey sound.

A'pexi N1 ($515)
DC Sports Single Canister ($535)
Fujitsubo Power Getter ($745)
Greddy Evo2 ($580)
HKS Hi Power ($540)


I really like the Fujitsubo and the HKS.... I'll also listen to suggestions that aren't on the list.

I don't know squat about it, so I'll shut up. I DO remember you being really juiced over the Power Getter, though.

As a related comment, the '05-06 exhaust is already fairly good...my way of saying the gains over replacing the '02-04 would be better than the gains on the other two because the exhaust is already pretty good. Did I read something about 4-6 HP gain once?

Or are you just looking for looks and a new sound?

Out of that list, I'd vote for the Greddy. Most of those other ones are stupid loud. The Greddy is too, but not as much as, say, the N1.

I really don't like a lot of the exhausts out on the market as they really prove no gains and are too restrictive for the engine. Power getter = power shitter

True gains by exhaust alone on the 05-06 are very small. I'm alright with that, I want teh look/sound. My stock tip isn't in very good shape. I used to chrome polish my old one, looks like no one has touched this one

I'm with Chuck on this one - Stock sounds good to me! Not into the Big Chrome Fart Pipe Sounds and Looks . . . but I'm a geezer!

I don't like how big and angled the HKS is. Greddy is probably the quietest out of the ones listed, but louder than stock.

That's along the lines of what i'm looking for... cuz I don't hit Vtec that often anymore, but when I do I want to notice it I enjoy scaring pedestrians and soccer moms with their windows down.
