So I just got a 21' RC300 with the 8AR-FTS 2.0 liter 4 cylinder engine, and was wondering if there was anything I could do to make the turbo sounds louder, and if there is any way to get the exhaust to pop and crackle? I actually was going to buy an elantra N because of how good they sound, but had the opportunity to get this and decided to have this since it's overall a way better car in every way. Anyways, I'm not as much worried about power as much as I would just like a good turbo noise and some nice pops. Thanks in advance!

Not really much you can do. Getting an intake and exhaust will help though.

Do you recommend any particular exhaust and intake systems?

Injen/AFE intakes are popular and Ark/Apexi exhaust. We have them in stock.

You can text me.

I'll definitely vouch for Josh. Did some business with him when I got my 2017 and he was extremely helpful.. However, I took a different approach on my exhaust and Intake.

When you say "New RC model" do you mean the RCF or just a regular RC? Once you drive a F you'll never think twice about the RC again!

Curious what the stock RCF exhaust system goes for these days?

It's half an F lol its only a 4 cylinder.

TTi muffler delete helps. Injen Short Ram Intake too.

I had those and a PPE downpipe, Invidia mid pipe and axlebacks. Car was very loud and performed well. I'm not sure if everything is a direct fit with my 2018 RC300. It it was, too bad you're not in SoCal or you could buy all my parts as I am parting out. Check my post history if you're curious about what other parts I've had.

I also vouch @Meraki Autoworks , I purchased most of my parts through him. He'll take good care of you.

Did you have to tune the engine and all that to make everything work right? Thanks for the answers guys!

You do not.

No but a tune would maximize your parts.

Bolt ons typically need no tuning, but it sure doesn't hurt.

I've talked to a couple tuners and they are both working on chip tuning for the newer 2.0T. They expect to have something available by summer.

You should buy my catless PPE downpipe lol
