[QUOTE="Neils, post: 313781, member: 7582"] I know there are products out there for all tastes and budgets, but [USER=8855]@C82NV[/USER] pretty much summed up the top 3, and the only ones I would ever consider putting on my car personally, just because they have the budget to do solid R&D and design and (hopefully) have less codes thrown than the others. Now in terms of sound and valves, I get that not everyone has $5k-$6K to throw onto an exhaust upgrade, but keep in mind that in the total price you paid for your car, you paid extra to have the NPP setup, meaning your monthly car payments is paying for the NPP exhaust, the valves, the software to control it via the driving modes, etc. To say you will rip that out and go non valve, to me, is a waste of that initial investment. And besides, we all like to drive down the street with a 130dB roar/note coming off the back of the car, however there are times where you may be waking up and leaving for an early car show event or work and may want to close the valves to not wake up the family or keep the neighbours on your good side. Just a thought. I personally love the sound of the NPP, the startup is just loud and obnoxious (especially in a garage with door open), however once everything settles down, some of that rumble and roar disappears, so I do get why an upgraded system would be cool to have. I am just worried that some of these catbacks will produce crackles and pops like the BMW and modded cars which I do not like. The snap coming from the NPP during aggressive gear changes sounds cool however, so hoping that is maintained post upgrade. My tough choice down the road, Corsa vs Borla, 2 great sounding exhausts with lots of R&D history. Cannot speak of Fabspeed but they are known for their exotic car systems so quality stuff too !!
