i hate to break it to you but you didn't feel any difference, it was in your head. the trd axle back will make MAYBE 2 - 3 at the crank, not the wheels. and i can assure the throttle response is the same. sorry if this is coming off sounding like i'm a jerk, i'm not trying to be, i'm just trying to say there are much better ways to spend the money you would spend on the trd axleback. if you are looking for just sound you can buy a borla muffler and get the same if not better sound

ahh, Im just trying to say....anyway my car already had it on, I would not spend the extra for it, I would probably get the HKS if I were to do it over again, but Im happy with it and its not on the top of my list at all to replace.

I like mine... it's not too big or loud. It's perfect in my opinion.

Not to mention resale ability. If you plan on selling your car, you probably could squeeze a little bit out of your trade/sale having a 525 OEM part. If you throw on an after market exhaust/muffler, people wonder how much you beat on it, if it would void warranties, and your resale for the nonOEM item will not be much if anything.

if you're just looking for sound just get a borla muffler (or what ever company you want) and save yourself a few bucks

I voted yes. I am acually very happy with the exaust, even though at first i was against it. Sounds really nice. And like someone said earlier, it sounds great with the K&N CAI.
