I have a cobb catback, it looks fairly stock and only gets loud when you get on it. I'm very happy with it and it sounds beautiful.

I will have an accessport with multiple tunes, so that is not an issue.

It seems that the majority are saying Borla Hush (or Stromung, but that's not one of the options).

Stromung makes Cobb's exhaust. The Difference it pretty much ONLY that the Cobb version uses a slightly longer muffler, and this helps make is SLIGHTLY quieter.

Nick, get the Borla. We got a few left. I can order you up a Perrin DP, and we'll find you a flex UP from somewhere.

the hush is a fairly nice looking exhaust, but it's not as sleek as the stromung. the stromung's tips are longer with more of a european look. thw welds on the stromung are also much cleaner. the hush has fatter shorter tips that kind of bulge out from under the rear bumper. imo the hush looks like its too big for the car.

don't get me wrong the hush is nice sounding if you want quiet, but for looks go for stromung, it's best choice.
