which exhaust sound do you prefer?

If you want, pick one and then give an example of an exhaust that you think sounds good.

Also, does someone have a link where soemone had some Audio clips of different exhausts?

Thanks

ps. Also, do you prefer a Catless system, or something with at least 1 cat?...ect. Just gauging interest.

Not a bad idea for those that want a different exhaust. I voted for mild rumble BTW.

here's a link to the TurboXS turbo back granted it won't be this loud w/o catless uppipe and racepipe. I should have this on my car by the end of the week w/o racepipe for the mild rumble.

mild rumble.. stock is too quiet.. slightly louder than stock you still can't really hear anything, and loud is just too annoying (like my car)

Yeha that's a good link I gave him; I have no idea where I got it though. I voted for mild rumble because stock is too quiet and I want something subtle to let them know I'm there when I feel the need.

I thought his exhaust was stock????? lol

I will edit original post, because I also wanted to know if you all like exhausts to be catless, or with cats? Either all 3 or even just one..you know?

thanks

good idea.

In a perfect world i'd have to say catless or even if you lived about 500miles away from the nearest town.

Unfortunately, smog is a real concern. Sure you could go catless for a autoX-day or a drag-day but to go without cats with a daily driver is flat out irresponsible. No offense to those that are doing so but it's true. At least go Hi-Flow cat...
