Which exhaust system is the best?
Well i drive a 07 TSX au. i have an injen intake in it, and im interested in some mufflers. I have basically looked at Skunk2 and Greddy. I was wondering which is going to give me a deeper sound, more powerful sound really. I have watched both sound clips as well as many more mufflers, but now its time to get some opinions, not just with skunk2 and greddy but with all mufflers for deep sound.
please let me no what yall think
thanks alot
Alec

well, if you want to know which exhaust is best, period, the
answer is Amuse.
if you are simply looking for a deeper, quieter exhaust, then
other options are:
Mugen
FEEL's
5Zigen
Vibrant
Comptech
and a handful of others.
there are sound clips for tons of exhausts on this site.
try doing a search for what you want specifcally.
^ just my opinion of course.

Just wondering. What makes the Amuse the best? Are you speaking performance wise?
I consider exhausts like wheels. "Best" is very subjective and varies on the person.
Of the exhausts I've heard I like the Mugen, Tanabe, Feels and Apexi the best. I like a not too loud, lower, deeper tone that doesn't drone too much.

best means quality in my eyes.
materials + craftsmanship + engineering.
but yes, it is subjective.
some people think Comptech is the best I'm sure.
we all have differing standards/opinions/thought processes
about it all anyway.
there isn't too much performance to gain from an
exhaust anyway. any well designed titanium exhaust
will be lightweight and perform well enough to qualify as
a "racing exahust" anyway.
oh, and I know of no sound clips for any of the Amuse
exhausts for TSX's. I've never even seen an Amuse exhaust
on a TSX before.

...this I'm sure you already know....best for anyone depends on
what you are wanting out of the exhaust and how much you are
wanting to invest. Is it the sound you are after? quality
workmanship? performance improvement? street use or track
use?...all of the above?...
Some of these exhausts run in to the thousands, some a little
as $500-600. Comptech runs about $900.
When I bought mine, I was looking for a nice deep sound that
wasn't raspy, a small performance increase, quality workmanship
for long life, precision made for perfect installation, and very good
looks. I originally ordered the Comptech but it was on backorder
for 3 weeks....I ended up getting Modacars in-house version of
the Comptech which they called their Super Touring cat-back. I
was totally amazed that EVERYTHING I was looking for in a cat-
back exhaust I got with this Super Touring system....and the
kicker was that I only paid $505 including shipping! I would have
gladly paid for the higher price system, (I've always thought that
you pay for what you get), this system was cheaper only
because it was their in-house, no-name system. I couldn't be
more satisfied....what a buy!
Food for thought.....
