Hi, what is your opinion on the Top Speed exhaust? I am considering buying one.

Do you like it? Is it ridiculously loud? Are you running test pipes, factory cats, high-flow cats, and stock Y pipe or aftermarket?

I've heard decent things about the top speed headers. I'd offer the guy less though ahha save money where ya can.

You'll probably need a tune to get any real power out of either of them, but after a tune your car will probably be doing pretty good, If you've already maxed out most of your bolt on options.

What exactly do you want opinions on? The quality? or if it's worth it? Because that's a good price....

if you are going to omit cats you might as well get a quality set of long tube headers... it will cost more than you are paying though.

If you are trying to get decent gains don’t go cheap - do it right and spend what it takes... if you are only doing it to say you have headers, don’t bother - it’s not worth it.

Many people don’t realize that just because you put xxx parts on you car doesn’t mean its going to be faster… putting the right parts in combination with each other and tuning to bring it together is the way to make gains.

Headers offer very little HP gain, if you haven't you need to start at the beginning....intake, spacer, HFC's and a quality dual exhaust. After you've completed the install of these mods headers will only offer maybe 3 HP regardless of what the manufactures claim. (which is mostly b.s.) It's the spacer and HFC's where the HP comes from with an N/A G35!

hey guys so yes i love my topspeed exhaust its not really loud it is louder than the hks. I ended up getting the cat deletes and headers for 150. I put the cat deletes on and added alot of power i ran a 14.2 at the track and it was my first time ever running. I am trying to sell the headers now its not worth the time to put them on and my car is already pretty loud with what I have done I set off car alarms all the time. So I think spacer will be the last thing i do for performance
