I had a hard time picking out an exhaust but I am extremely glad I went with the Greddy Axle Back for my 2012. Love the sound not too loud but noticeable. A little pricey mainly due to the high shipping cost($92) on ebay. Finally got it put in along with my hotchkis swaybars and h-tech springs. Car is a little dirty on the bumper

Love the greddy exhuast, the sound and the look, but I hate how much they charge just for a nice looking pipe with their company name on it.

I also have tein htech and hotchkis sways, good choice. Although you probably end up needing to replace the oem struts/shocks while running these springs. I had to after about a year and a half. just wanted to give you a heads up, see you in upstate NY, I'm up in north west NJ, roads probably similar to yours.

keep going with the suspension mods, you'll love the improvements ;)
I got htechs with trd struts/shocks, hotchkis sways, tanabe strut, TB mid chasis brace, tb traction bar, tb trunk brace, and 17's on meaty tires....believe me our cars got potential!

looks great man, post some more pics !

Thanks for the reply. Your car was one of the few pics I found on htechs in my search. I had figured they would only last a year or so but I kept hearing that tokico struts are backorded. Definitely alot of potholes up here! I had plans to buy rims soon but just found out I am getting a furlough at work, so thats on hold. Plus Im undecided on 17s or 18s. Ill post more pics in better weather. Did you have any issues getting your aligned after? Mainly with the dealership?

Never got an alignment at the dealer, I like going to suspension shops that deal with modded/lowered cars. But no problem aligning at all, I got an alignment right when I got the springs with stock steelies , no problems.

Got an alignment last month after all the suspension upgrades and 17's, no problems aligning. just run a conservative offset and width on the htechs
