awhile back i thought i read the greddy sp2 had the most gains of the 'axle back' exhausts. however, the 'gains' were minimal.
and for sound clips, search on youtube, there are tons of them out there. |

| Choose an exhaust for its looks and sound... don't bother on performance. There is very minimal difference in any of them, and very minimal increase to begin with. |

| you will get more from more flow catback > axleback, and larger diameter down pipe to a better manifold. |

| either of the 2 ARK exhausts, the ptuning exhaust, or the dezod catback exhaust...but it's only gonna get you 2-4whp more than an axleback...either way you're lookin at probably 8-10whp gain total at the most |

| Yea but more airflow for our low compression cars arent going to do us any good. Most axle backs will make you lose back pressure. |
