Default Looking for exhuast, please help!

Sup guys! I'm looking to get an exhuast but the problem is that I don't know which one to get. Ive heard so many on youtube but its not the same. I wanna get a nice soft bass sound and that wont crack or pop will reving the engine. So please feel free to post up your ideas, thoughts and opinion as to what exhuast I should get. Thanks!

IMO the Tsudo sounds the best, for what I'm looking for. The Descendant one sounds good as well but it just isn't the tone I was looking for. I've been hearing a lot of good things about the TRD axle back as well but a cat back is what I was looking for. You should get quite a few responses on this one, but I am sure you can search the forum and find what you are looking for.

Wrong. It doesn't matter how crappy the quality of the camera that someone is recording their sound with. That is what the exhaust sounds like. Plus... you have nothing to compare that to since you don't know what sounds like what. Go back on youtube and find one. I did find that the 2G exhausts aren't too ricey like they did for the 1G so you're almost in the clear with any of them. Most of them seem to be a nice deep bassy tone with no or little pop. You were on the right track with youtube, stick to it. That has been the purchase decision maker for many of people.

True.

I had the Tsudo and I believe it is what you are looking for. It is very bassy, doesn't crack or pop when revving, and maintains a consistent tone throughout the RPM band.

I sold it because it was just a bit too loud for my liking and also caused me to take a hit in low-end torque.

Nonetheless here's a video I made a few months back. It has good sound quality and also has a clip of the stock exhaust so you get a good feel for how it sounds comparatively.

Yea as everyone has already said, Tsudo seems like what you're looking for. That video is a good protrayal (sp?) of what it sounds like.

In all honesty, most exhausts out for the TC2 are good and very deep. I have yet to see one that's ricy. It all just depends on how deep you want it, and how loud you want it. The Tsudo is super deep, and definetley draws some attention with it's volume

This video is what sold me on which exhaust I bought. It is kind of hard to find so here it is. It is about 95% what it sounds like in person.


And Criminaltc is part right; a mic is a mic, but a mic that has a foam cover will record the sound much better, which most people dont have...

Tsudo, hands down, silencer on or off. A few people compain that the Descendant is not as loud as they hoped. Descendant is quiet when you want it to be, but when you get on it, it really opens up. Not really thread jacking, it may help the OP decide.

this may help the OP...

descendant=great exhaust, loud, but not loud enough(that's what people say), but looks stock.

tsudo=great exhaust. louder than descendant, doesnt look like stock, and cheaper.

i dont have the 2 cat back exhaust, but that's what i know. correct me if im wrong. watch out, i may get 1 of the 2 cat back exhaust by this month or next month. #justsayin

Did you just hashtag?!?! What are we on Twitter? Hahahahahahahahahahaha!

I am running a magnaflow with a deleted resonator in my tC, not very loud and sounds like poop before it gets warmed up. Once warm though, sounds like racecar!

Agency Power is releasing a cat-back very shortly. Though I have no idea the cost or sound. Just another option to throw in the mix.
