j's racing exhaust is the best for any fit ;-P

but personally.. I think it's a little cheesy to hear an automatic non-racecar with a loud exhaust. so if I were you, I'd go with the tanabe medallion touring axle back(quiet) with a megan or aspec b pipe and some weaponr headers.

that would be like.. $370 + 230 + 195 = $795 for a full exhaust and probably 15 HP, throw on a home depot intake for $50(2-5hp) and you could have a 25% increase in power for $850.

but then.. if you wanted to be loud you could probably just get something less expensive and a bit louder louder like the hks hi-power for an axle back, do the same for everything else and throw on a cat-delete for an extra 3-5 HP.

same overall cost, much louder, probably looking at 100-110hp to the wheels.

but really, the best choice for exhaust is whatever you want to buy ;-P

axle backs are probably all pretty equal in power, so just listen for the sound you like

b pipes are probably both the same in power

cat deletes most likely work better without a resonator, but depending on how loud you want, it's your choice

for headers you have the weaponr street and t1r response header for low end torque and decent power or the megan header or t1r power header for high rpm power and a bit of torque, or the weaponr race header for the best of both worlds and a hefty chunk of cash more(and louder).

so head over to the exhaust clip thread and decide! :-P

the medallion touring sounds like a good bet.

Mgean axle back, with megan Bpipe would be a sweet sound, and not ricey or loud at all. I plan on ordering my Megan BPipe soon. I already have the axleback.

Thumbs up

finally I purchased Tanabe Medallion Touring. Love it. Installed it in 15 mins. Still in break-in period (1-2 days). The most interesting parts is my wifey couldn't notice that I have new exhaust installed. Test drive as soon as it was installed with wifey, again she didn't notice.
