Best RCF exhaust?
#46
First, no such thing as best exhaust, way too subjective, but
+1 for Invidia
easy to install
well made
do not use OEM gaskets at the cat, not enough sealing surface
perfect sound for me - rumble in low rpm's which turns melodic higher up
I could not get past the shiny cans and pipe so I painted the end section black with high temp automotive paint - did not paint tips
highly recommend

Josh is the man for after market parts , there is none of the " best exhaust" its all about what you after, sounds and performance are really come down too got to go see and hear in person and sit inside to really know what u really want . Good luck with your search .

Novel was tuned mostly for sound. The gains are quite controversial. Not sure about Tom's, but the Invidia gives around +18 whp.
This is not exactly scientific, but gives a good idea of how much more midrange is available with Invidia

I’ve seen may drivers beat cars that they shouldn’t have beat. I think if they ran it back now that he’s familiar with the car it would be a lot different. But I think the stock car would indeed still lose. Based on my dyno sheets and dragy runs between stock and adding a catback.

I don’t think that’s the best sample size to use.

I have had it for 2.5 years and it is still incredible every time I turn on the car. The quality and finish is absolutely top notch. Still looks brand new. The sound starts to change a bit as soon as the materials inside begin to wear, but still the same melodic and exotic-like quality. Just gets a bit more deeper (at least in my case). You should notice a pretty significant power different especially when you go past 6000 rpm. I noticed a significant change in power delivery as soon as I drove off the shop. Try resetting your ECU and it will learn from the new exhaust flow rate and make adjustments.

For reference I painted the rear section of the muffler black. Kept the Ti burnt tips. Looks way better when standing behind the car.

Know this exhaust?
This is a Japanese import I bought recently, still en route to me. I'm trying to figure out what the exhaust on it is. Anyone have an idea?
Thanks
