I have Joe Z intake/exhaust and I am happy with the quality and sound. There are tons of other brand. Joe Z,IssForge,Borla,Custom...etc etc exhaust. For intakes your not gonna get much from it besides the change in sound. Search is your friend!

Here is a couple of videos of the Joe Z exhaust. I will try to post up the ISSForge exhaust or you can just look in their thread for the video.

You could also do a search and come up with countless threads that have covered the available options for both items and make an informed decision.

Lucky for you Evil Teo is a nice guy and is going to do all of the work for you

I think we should make an exhaust sticky with just videos showing the sound coming from the exhaust so people can hear it and make their decision, of course we will also post dyno results for each exhaust to show the gains.

Default Exhaust Thread

Here is thread that has a few video clips in it for exhaust. Similar to the idea that Evil Teo said. I think we should have it stickied though so it stays at the top.

To the OP, what do you mean by "the best"? There are many different exhausts and intakes available depending on what you're looking for.

People are so lazy (like the OP) that even if you have the thread as a sticky, they won't read but start another thread for the question. This same subject has been covered this week so it should be within the first 2 pages. Great way to start in CL!

The "search" button is your friend.

As people have stated it's been covered a ton of times.

When you say best it leaves out many variables. Best is subjective. The most popluar exhuast here are ISS, JoeZ, Borla, and Custom.
As for intakes I still can't find any true 100% better set up than stock. Way too many threads with bad results, even with drop in filters.

JoeZ all the way!!!! none of the videos do justice...

best bang for buck
has a low growl, no drone whatsoever
just down right intimidating at full throttle. (will lose distinctive secondary intake noise but u wont miss it. lol)

What 95% of people don't tell you about the Joe-Z exhaust is that it has no cats. What that means is your getting more wheel gain but you have no chance of passing an emissions test, not here in toronto anyway.. It might be different in cali where he makes them. If you need an emmisions test it can be a problem unless you know someone at the DMV etc.. You have to take off the joe-z exhaust, put on the stock, get tested etc... The borla has cats and is about 500 bucks less than the joe-z but your not getting the wheel gain and it doesnt sound as cool (IMHO). The borla also splits from the muffler back into 1" 4-way which i think is absurd.
