Default tC Deep sounding and most hp exhaust??? ..which one??

I am looking to buy an spipe and exhaust for my tc. I want the deepest sound possible because I cant stand that rice sound!! Also, I want the exhaust/spipe combo that is going to outperform the others. So 2 things - 1. Deep Sound 2. Performance.

So far the draxas exhaust sounds like its what I want. Does anybody have an opinion?

Next year I am going to be getting my supercharger that Is why I want to do this upgrade now. please help!

hey,

You should get the HKS axleback with the s-pipe and a custom 2.5inch mid pipe if you want to upgrade to the supercharger. You say you want draxus but once you supercharge it, the sound will be way different. I'm not sure about how the HKS will change but I know this is the deepest sounding exhaust by far out of whats out there and it doesn't have rasp on most setups. Plus in the description of the HKS it says its for both NA and Turbo applications. It also has the best air flow because of its shorter distance out compared to the other exhaust systems. The only downside is if you do not like the JDM look and the tip is a little over sized at 120mm.

DRAXAS. E-mail Nikolas at www.draxas.com. they have an awsome exhaust and great customer service. i have one of their kits on my 04 Mazda 3 and it had a very deep Euro sound to it. as soon as i save up the money its going on the car. they have 2 kits you can get one is an S pipe back and the other is the complete package with the Spipe and complete exhaust system.

just remember if you supercharge your tC it will greatly impact how your exhaust will sound.

I had issues w/ my truck because of oil pump must have been putting out the wrong pressure because it warped my new engine and things werent setup right... (so i didnt know it was happening) etc ...i dont wanna get into it...hehe... but warranty is important for me right now. Yea I am interested in how the draxas sounds w/ the new resinator they are adding. Im hoping to get a reply from one of those guys soon w/ an update so I know what kinda progress is being made.
