Default Need fellow members' help on deciding which exhaust to get.

Dear CL,

I have been doing a bit of research on which exhaust will be good for me and I have come to the conclusion that: some people do not know how to record good quality videos on YouTube...therefore, I have no idea on which video offers the most accurate sound quality to what exhaust.

I was wondering if anyone on the forum within the SoCal 714/949/562 area have 2IS's that have either F-Sport, Greddy SE, or either of the aforementioned with Invidia midpipes that are willing to meet up, chill and hopefully give a helping hand on deciding which exhaust fits my sound & comfort level.

Free meal for anyone whose willing to look past the creepy nature of this request and possibly make a new friend? ;D

Not sure if you'd be interested, but I have the hks with invidia set up if you're interested in hearing it. Can put silencers on as well

Is that with a midpipe? That thing is pretty dang loud.

Maybe my old *** needs to get a Fujitsubo.

But F-Sport Sound Awesome!!!

There are no gathering or meets in your local area codes? If not, maybe consider driving out to the 626 where they do weekly (or biweekly?) gatherings and see maybe 2 dozen cars. You would pretty much be able to see all the ones you listed and more for $5 worth of drinks.

I live in Westminster and having a car meet here is like asking to get disbanded in 10 minutes and anything in HUntington Beach is full of bros in Skin/Independent shirts and lifted trucks.

Any links you're able to provide for these meets? Would love to go to one. Thanks much in advance.

I tried looking for a local/semi-local meet in those sticky posts but nothing

I think that's just the F-Sport Catback. The Invidia midpipe combination would have a much more..."vibrant" growl.

People here are so friendly, unlike Honda-Tech.com...is that an insult to even compare the two crowds?

I'll pm you my number and we can discuss rendezvous point ;O
