just wanted to ask what ppl around oahu are using. i'm in the market for something cat-back, angled exit, and not crazy loud. was thinking about the invidia g200 or espelir jgt500. any suggestions?

 

I think the G200 comes straight out, but the Espelir does angle out. I have a custom HKS Carbon Ti and I love it. Not too loud, but you can definitely hear me.

 

have the Invidia N1 & Invidia v2 catless dp

the fit is as perfect, materials are high quality, angled tip

a little loud with a nice tone, but probably due to the catless dp, should be a lot softer without it

 

I really really really like the Espelir exhaust. It sounds so nice.

Its a bit loud though...not RFL Ti loud.

 

JIC Magic... angled exit... loud, but nice tone.

 

HKS Hi-power cat back.... Helix u/d pipe catless.... not too loud.. more of a lower rumble.

 

i got the helix up and down pipe and the borla hush back nice deep rumble.... its awesome

 

using the hks hi-power (only mod). Not too lound and very quiet in the car

 

im running the invidia g200..great sound, no rasp, not overbearing loud or droning. and a good thing as well, it is angled...the can is crazy big tho, but since its angled other wont be able to tell

 

i have the espelir. sounds very good! It doesn't angle too much though.
one thing, the resonator hangs low, esp. on lowered cars. You will have to be careful on inclines, but it ain't that bad.

 

i have had the espelier on my wrx and now on my 2.5rs. given the price and materials i think it's one of the better ones around. just be careful, got a nice ticket last night in waikiki...i know i know but b4 anyone says anything i wasn't on the strip and i was driving 25mph in 4th gear trying to creep outta there. the cop even said it didn't sound very loud. so yeah morel: use the damn silencer if you go waikiki.

 

I thought the HKS Hi-power needed to be mated w/ an aftermarket flat-flanged downpipe, and couldn't fit on the stock dp? If it can bolt right up to the stock dp, I want to get it.

 

The following 4 catbacks were used with a PDE DP:
B&B catback: Nice, not too loud or soft, less of the Suby rumble...low tone
HKS Carbon Ti catback: Not too loud or soft, accentuates the Suby rumble...mid tone
TurboXS Ti Axleback: 2.5" and very loud!
Cobb catback: like the B&B but more quiet...very nice middle/low tone.


APS 3.5" TBE: I am running this right now...nice, different tone...but it does get kind of loud at times...still, I really like it and would recommend this as well as any of the others mentioned above...

You just have to find the right combination of looks/sound that you prefer...can't go wrong with any of these...

 

jic full ti catback and helix v3 dp....not too loud with a nice tone

 

Wouldn't mind doing what you did...
