Guess I'm getting old! Lol.

Still think I prefer the X pipe over this. Does sound mean, but it would get on my nerves after a while.

I need to get some PPE headers on my car really. Be interesting to see how they compare.

You do realise no track with a sound limit will let you anywhere near it with this setup!

Sounds great under any type of load though.

Josh,
You had the Joe Z exhaust right? Can you give a comparison of the two? Sound, which one drones more, etc?

^This..What are the final options? You said they will be supplied for the same price but we don't have to run them if we don't want to right?


What are the exhaust specs, pipe diameter vs stock etc.

Totally forgot about that....

Hayward > Joe-Z. This is my personal opinion. The sound is a lot more aggressive, unique, and has less drone compared to the Joe-Z believe it or not..

So.. It comes with those tips, free. But you can use the OEM tips or the supplied tips. Since the tips do not run through all the way. They are like the Joe-Z exhaust where it stops before the OEM quad tips.

To be honest, I'm not sure about the piping, I would have to double check.

Exactly my thoughts!! Joe Z is the perfect balance of loud, deep/aggressive, and no drone. In all honesty, the H&S sounds like a Subaru wrx thru video! I'm sure it sounds better in person, going off what others are saying. But what sounds good to 1 person could sound terrible to the next. I'm hoping that videos are doing this exhaust no justice sound wise....otherwise I think I'm fine with Joe Z.

also, the type of headers makes a difference, so many variables. that's why there's so many options for other cars, i.e, mustangs, camaro's honda, WRX, etc etc.

You must've hung around too many Subaru owners with vape pens and gotten second hand retardation, or huffed the douche flute yourself and gotten it straight from the source. This exhaust, and this car for that matter, sound nothing like a Subaru. In the past I had 3 Subarus with at least 6 exhausts each and several different headers, in addition to hearing tons of them at meets, shows, with friends, and none of them sound anything like this. Or a V8 for that matter.

Then again, we definitely shouldn't trust the opinion of someone who can't properly quote a post he wants to respond to.

Don't compare our cars to Subarus.

I was going to say, this H&S exhaust sounds pretty brutal...reminds me of an AMG exhaust note more than anything.
