Im really diggin this exhaust out of all others especially how quiet it is for it not having a resonator and the price. Im just waiting on cobb before I make purchasing decisions.

It's def the top of my list at this point...it's not too loud and not too quiet...I think it's a pretty nice compromise.
Since I have the intake as well I'll be leaning toward this one...unfortunately I'm not a very patient person, but I'm gonna try to hold out just a lil longer

never really dealt w/them but have never heard anything bad...they seem to produce quality products
I had almost every FocusSport product on my old car at one point or another, all quality stuff.

Wish they had a dyno of intake, exhaust + Cobb tune but they are already making more HP than the tune added. Combine it all and it should be great.

On a naturally aspirated engine, I would agree that a single 2.5" pipe can work at 400 HP, but with a turbo, reducing back pressure makes power so I'll be looking for a 3" system or making my own.

A mild, mostly stock car would do fine with 2.5" but upgrade the turbo and suddenly 3" seems like a good idea.

A good stainless system can be made with thin wall tube which minimizes any weight penalty.

The real issue is sound, bigger pipes generally equal more sound so performance vs. unwanted attention is how I'm going to balance things.

Yeah I don't really want an obnoxious exhaust I dealt w/that in the past and don't want that again, that's what's so appealing to me about this exhaust...it's not the quietest exhaust but not nearly the loudest either....has a great sound too imo
