There are a lot of good ones out there... just depends on how you want to set up your car. I have had Injen Super SES exhaust's on both of my tC's... nice large diameter piping... makes for nice free flowing design. Gives a nice deep exhaust tone... and Injen does a lot of research into the designs for every application they make performance parts for. And I'm dropped a full 2 inches front and rear and Im careful...but have not scraped the exhaust even once... so thats a plus too.

i have the TRD exhaust and an injen CAI and really like my setup. i did not want a ricey setup. with the exhaust and intake it has a nice deep tone, but its not ridiculously loud. look up different setups on youtube its all personal preference.

I have the same set up!! Sounds amazing! I use to have the Agency Power ti/ss exhaust and I got pulled over for it! $130 ticket without warning!There's a lot of good exhausts though, just search youtube.

1. search.
2. what are you planning to do to your car? n/a, supercharged or turbo'ed? with or without an aftermarket header blah blah blah.
3. don't be such a lazy tool. go to youtube and listen to clips of tc's with different exhausts.
4. do you want an actualy performance gain, or just something that sounds good? or alittle of both?

for example, i have one the best exhaust systems you can get, custom made 3 inch exhaust made on a mandrel bender at a local shop, but it is loud and sounds awful. so for performance, you probably can't beat it, but for sound and livability on a daily basis, it is the pits.

i didn't say i have the best, i said one of the best.

people would arugue that dezod is the best or p-tuning or greddy or tanabe etc. but literally, with the exception of sound quality, mine just about beats them all in terms of build quality and performance gains. it sounds like crap, but it is well made and very functional.

I have a Injen CAI and A Weapon R header with a Skunk2 Catback. It is deep and never raspy. I love mine! It's a little more pricey than some of the other ones but IMO its sounds so sexy!

HKS is great,it needs resonators to sound good with header,but is non droning and has great sound andif you put foot into it is loud as all get out......down side is it is angle out,and sits low with huge can,you gotta have a lip kit to make it look its best.

my drfit spec is loud below 4k rpms than when you punch on the gas the injen cai kicks it louder then the exhaust...but it does feel good after 4k rpm or even 3500 rpm.....

thanks guys sounds good on a low budget it seems like the drift spec is the best bet. but i dont want it to sound ricey i want a deep tone thats why i like the trd but the price for an axle back is outrageous

^^ x2. i actually just bought one. do your research, youtube is good but doesn't really tell you how loud it is. personally, i like loud. it makes people know you are there, stand out, be counted.
