Aftermarket exhaust....what do we think?

Other than debadging the aftermarket exhaust question has been asked a
zillion times, basically it's what you like the sound of. But, you also need to
take into consideration quality, fitment along with sound. I've already done
too much with this subject, do a SEARCH!
(hint HKS or F1)

I'll probably end up going with HKS. Thanks to those who provided useful insight!

Gary C is absolutely right, exhausts are pretty much the same for our cars performance-wise, so go with whichever you think looks and sounds the best while taking into account build quality. For me the HKS had everything I was looking for (I love it so much this is my second one).

Also a lot of people comment about how loud the HKS is, it's really not unless you have test pipes or expect an aftermarket exhaust to sound OEM level.

Also a matter if you want true dual or single piped. From what I know the gains between the former and latter are negligible, but I've been doing my research, and since I eventually plan on picking up JWT or APS TT kit, it's something that is in my list of things to consider. Probably gonna go with the injen, i like how it looks, maybe the FI if I can find a decent deal. Just my 2 cents

I have Stillen true duals and you can't go wrong with this setup, the sound is great and it looks closer to stock then the others. However when you step on it you can tell it's aftermarket.
