I think they're both the same thing to be quite honest... I wrote a full review on the M2 which can be found in the exhaust section of the forums.

Ok thank you cause I've found the Godspeed for cheap and people say they like it but no one really gushed about it. And than I see people fishing about the M2

If youre just buying an exhaust to have an exhaust on your car, don't. I bought the M2 exhaust and I thought it was great for the first couple weeks. Then I got really tired of the drone. Any of the hks replicas will drone. If you haven't been in a car with drone, i suggest you find someone local to show you how bad an exhaust can drone. Is it tolerable? Yes. But your car will be COMPLETELY different.
And if you live in an area with cops who are *******s, then be prepared to start shifting at 2k rpms

I'm not trying to steer you away from all exhausts, but the hks replicas are really for people who don't want to she'll out the money for a quality exhaust.

PS: stock is a ton quieter, but the tone is soooo much better. Just roll your windows down so you can hear it.

I like my Godspeed exhaust. Has a nice sound and I don't have much drone at all. Also have Injen CAI and Plenum. Putting aftermarket stuff that gets air through the engine faster is going to make your car louder...PERIOD. Ilike a louder car myself....I think it's because I grew up with a dad the drag races.
One more thing about the Gspeed exhaust. It does NOT have that ricer sound.

Rather than buying a whole exhaust system get MotorDynes ART pipes, most of the restriction in our systems is the OE cats. You'll notice a nice sound and noticable increase in HP the minute you fire her up....Gary

^^listen to him. If you're gonna spend money on that exhaust which are about 400-500 just for a sound, then you might as well buy those cats gary mentioned. You'll get better sound and a sexy push when you let it go. Those HKS replicas sometimes have an issue with the tips being misaligned. If you do end up getting the exhaust be sure to take it to a reputable shop. Also those tips get insane corrosion and dirty too quickly. Like I said take garys advice. Incase you buy the exhaust I believe a nice magna flow resonated x pipe would significantly reduce the drone. Is this correct or am I thinking about something else.

if you want an exhaust dont cheap out and buy a replica exhaust. Save your money and do it right the first time you will be glad you did in the end. and +1 on the art pipes
