Default Injen CAI/Injen Exhaust or Injen CAI/TRD Exhaust Combo?

What's the best CAI/exhaust combo for the tC? Injen CAI + Injen Exhaust or Injen CAI + TRD Exhaust?

I already have an Injen CAI, so I just need to get the exhaust. I don't want anything too loud, just something that matches well with the Injen CAI.

I've got the Injen CAI and Exhaust. Best choice I could have made. Not only does they sound great together, but they also feel great ( as in HP increase ).

I get nothing but compliments about the sound of them together.

Also, if I recall there is a sound clip of the exhaust at Injen's website.

In all honesty I do not know the exact HP increase numbers for any of the different exhausts. But the way I see it is that Injen designed an intake and exhaust so that they could work most efficently when put together.

Like I said ( not looking for an argument ), to each his own about what they install, that's just my opinion.

Not a bad way of thinking, but the Injen is an axle-back while the Magnaflow and Megan are full cat-backs. They'll draw out more power than the TRD, Injen, Greddy, etc.

I agree - I'm leaning more towards an Injen CAI + exhaust combo cause I think they would work really well together.

Now I just need to find a place that sells the exhaust for cheap

Here's a clip of my Injen Exhaust and Intake. Not the best vid, it was from a cold start. You can hear the intake whistle though.

Do you feel that the exhaust is alright on the highway? Would you buy it again? I'm looking into the injen exhaust, purely for the sound.

If I got another tC I would definately put all Injen products on it again. I was very picky and cautious about my exhaust sound and I couldnt be happier with Injen. I think its actually quiet for highway. If your going purely for sound you shouldnt be disapointed.
