thats a very broad question

are you lookin for a canister style exhaus tlike my megan exhaust (which is a cat back... headerback in my case i have the Spipe also)

or a stock style catback (or headerback) like the Dezod exhaust? both sound great and both get good gains. so its up to you. plus there are a bunch of other styles out there. just search for tC exhaust.

the problem w/ most of the catbacks ive found is that the canisters all come out at an angle. Am i the only person that hates that look? seems to be quite popular but I think they look horrid. Had to go w/ tanabe concept g axle back and Invidia s-pipe instead. Maybe ill replace the mid section later on.

No you are not the only one. I too think the angled exhausts look "dee dee dee".

Back to the question, I think the first step for you to know what style you like. Canister or ones more OEM? If canister, slanted or not? and such.

There is really no best brand. Brands such as Greddy, HKS, Tanabe, and Mangaflow are generally more "well-known" brands. If you want power, you would probably want to look at a cat-back system. Keep in mind you can get a axel back exhaust and get the other parts seperately for a cat back system.

Hope this helps.

No, I agree completely. I'm so f**king sick of that look. I have the ARK DT-S, and unlike most on this site, I can drive around NOT looking like the ricer of the century.
