Default Topspeed Pro 1 exhaust is on!

So i have been thinking for months about getting this exhaust or hold out for the Blitz Nur Spec Dual Muffler. Well i decided to go with the Topspeed because it is a great bang for your buck and im trying to get some money together to boost my car this summer. So for now it will work. The only thing is its not very loud so i think im going to have sound performance make me a custom mid pipe. Anyways what do you guys think?





By the way thats my little brother with a stupid look on his face.

How thick are the walls on the exhaust tips? I've been thinking of getting these mufflers for a while, but my only fear is that the tips are too thin and will dent once I touch a curb or a driveway incline with them.

Im not really sure how think they are exactly. But they are not to bad. And as for hitting stuff well im sure if you backed into a curb with any muffler you would mess it up so i guess just be careful lol.

Yea it sounds good i drove around all last summer with no mufflers on. It was ok but it drowned and was kinda annoying. But with this new setup it is just as loud but the drown is gone. I on the other hand want it to be louder so i dont know how exactly im going to do that yet.

Not too bad. Recently heard the Topspeed on an SC300 and it sounded okay to me. Then again I also have a friend with the Blitz exhaust on his SC3 and it sounded much more refined. Then again you do pay more for it so it's a trade off. If you have the money, Blitz any day of the week. If you're on a budget, then the Topspeed is fine.

Looks purrty. Actually, I would rather have a quieter exhaust for less attention.

Ive had mine on for about two months now. I think they sounds pretty good and look decent too. I must agree if you have the money get blitz but there are perfect for 275.00. Here is a pic I have the rolled tips.


here is a recent picture

I wanted this exhaust as well, but I can only find it in 2.5" piping... I wanted it in 3" because im boosting. Im thinking if you are going to save for boost down the line, you should have waiting on exhaust as well? Wouldnt you want a 3" for boost instead?
