Greddy, TRD has too much rasp, and don't know many still rocking strup stuff anymore, thats gotta say something. Get the legit one of the 3, Greddy.

see i like the greddy but in teh videos on youtube it just doesnt sound like the greddy has alot of sound to it. so thats why i cant decide. and the strup has a nice sound to it. i wasnt sure with that. im leaning more towards trd, or greddy one fo the 2 not sure.

even though the greddy looks good. i think im going to end up with the trd i found someone local that is selling the trd for $250 so i might just go ahead and pick it up from him. cause i just dont really want to spend $432 on a axelback exhaust. when i could be using the money to pick up the trd and a set of apt fogs. i dont know once the end of the month comes i will figure it out.

I say TRD because as long as you dont do headers its still the "cleanest" sounding exhaust out there, not too noisy, and has almost no drone to it whatsoever. Only gets loud when you really get on it and even then its a smooth sound. Now once you put in an spipe and a good midpipe it gets really loud, but in a deep and good way.

so i have come to a conclusion that maybe instead of spending the money on another exhaust, maybe just keeping the tsudo on fixing how it hangs, and spending the money elsewhere. maybe on some wheels what you guys think?

I had a Strup for my xA and it was great. Inexpensive but good quality and a beautiful sound to it! I was going with a Strup for my tC but have changed my mind because I found something $50 cheaper. Strup gets my vote and they respond to questions quicker than Greddy. I think the TRD is a bit overpriced for what you get!
