Best performance exhaust?

I have the T1R CF Intake, and I'm looking to do full exhaust and eventually headers, but apart from the T1R v2 exhaust I see little information with other exhaust systems about performance gains.

Does anyone know which exhaust systems offer the highest performance gains?

lol wow you really stick to your things sol....


I don't really think there is any axleback that will give you more power than any other the gains from an axle back are minimal so they are all pretty much the same.

RCautoworks axleback will have gains over the rest because there's no restriction AWESOME for forced induction fits and all motor fits as well

It really won't matter how much restriction there isn't at that point in the exhaust, due to the restriction and turbulence caused upstream in the stock manifold, catalytic, and whatever else it has to pass thru to get to that point. What I am wondering is, how much can I actually gain with headers and such, while keeping the the catalytic in place so I can stay legal

with the weapon r street header you will have somewhat of a gain. it will have a bit more torque. pulls i hear getting on the freeway are a lot nicer for the fit.

are you planning on forced induction? if not, i wouldn't waste your money on mods like that. get an axleback and b pipe. it'll make it noisy.

the L series doesn't react well to boltons. similar to the d series of the last generation of hondas

I don't want to just make it noisy, in fact I don't want it making anymore noise than it is right now, if it ain't makin more power. Are these statements on the engines based on fact, or something overheard in the locker room?

I'm also wondering this question. I want a really quiet exhaust that adds power... Is every exhaust out there substantially louder than stock? Basically I've heard that I/H/E tends to synergize with each other. I'm waiting for the intake and headers to arrive in the mail, but I want to maximize power gains with an exhaust without making my car into a quad-exhaust ricemobile.

1. Full Js racing exhaust

2. Full Spoon exhaust

3. Full T1R exhaust

You wont go wrong with either.
