Hey,
Your options are going to be Invidia, Apexi, Ark Performance, GTHAUS, Armytrix and PPE engineering. Tanabe makes an axle back for the car as well.
Power wise they are all relatively the same..
Contact me for information and pricing. Feel free to text me at 213 394 2886.

Like Josh said, power gains are more or less the same. It depends on what type of sound you prefer. You are going to get different opinions from different people. I personally have the Invidia full catback and absolutely love it. It has the largest midpipe diameter of 2.75 inches so it allows highest exhaust flow. It is also the cheapest of the full catbacks listed above, but the quality, fit and finish is absolutely top notch. With the titanium burnt blue tips, I believe it looks the best. That is my own personal choice.

I wished Borla exhaust is still available. I have the Borla exhaust bought from Josh a few years ago for my RCF.
For some reason Borla exhaust is no longer available.

Bazooka Exhaust system from RR racing was another one that was not mentioned. It closely resembles the Borla exhaust system and they offer a valvued system.
I have a video with the before and after linked below!

As stated above, with all the options out there we do have an amazing option of the most affordable Valvetronic (with electric cutouts not vacuum) on the market! And it's also on sale. But in terms of the catback, you'll have thee option to remain on thee quieter side or open it up and flaunt all the V8 glory. Shoot me a message if interested.

I wish there were good/better clips of Armytrix paired with headers. Insane sound, kind of more exotic than muscle. I know there is that full video of jp's rcf with the Novel headers, but thats like a 10k setup. There is a short startup clip of another rcf with armytrix and ppe UL heasders and it sounded very similar from what I can tell. I wish the armyrtrix/ppe combo was more explored. Edited to add video for reference.

Here's a video of my Invidia. Very easy to live with on a daily. Cold starts have just enough crackle to have some drama without angering the neighbors.

Depending on your tolerance for catback drone, i'd recommend staying with the stock mufflers.
On my GS-F I have Stock mufflers + midpipe with resonators removed. And it sounds absolutely perfect. I highly recommend saving your money and doing stock mufflers + midpipe (remove resonators or get an aftermarket H pipe).
The RC-F and GS-F have some of the most hilarious pricing for axel backs I have ever seen. And people just seem to keep buying them at these insane prices (albeit it's a niche market, and the prices would be lower if there was higher demand and larger runs through the manufacturing process).

JoeZ / Performance Tube Systems. I'm not sure if this is still available, but I'm still very pleased with mine which I got in 2015 for around $2100. It's a catback system, deletes the forward cat as on the OEM exhaust. Probably most/all catbacks delete that cat I would guess. Get plenty of compliments on the sound and the quality of the system is very good. The fitment was a bit dodgy and takes some tweaking to get it right, that's my only critical comment.
