WTB: COBB catback

Hey guys, I'm looking for a COBB catback exhaust, let me know your prices and pm me pics if you have any. Thanks.

-Kevin

EDIT: I'll add greddy sp2 to my wanted list, so looking for that too!

well I heard from my friend who had one that the carbon drones a lot and it's ridiculously loud. I wanted it because of the looks. figured I go with something better like the COBB.

Sorry didn't mean to clutter your WTB thread with people's exhaust opinions, just wanted to say how nice the Cobb system and similar systems sound.

I actually never looked into the borla hush, although I do hear good things about it. I also heard that the APS is pretty good too. I was plan on running COBB accessport in the future so I figured I'd run the COBB catback as well.

Pretty much. Just seems like the Borla is more readily available on the forums.

Prodrive and Stromung are also pretty tame if that's what you're after.

I APS sounds very similar to a COBB. To me, it just sounds like it has more bass down at the low end. I really like the COBB at WOT, but I don't get to WOT often during the daily commute lol.

lmk if you want a full COBB tbe, I know somebody who is selling it for 850. About couple hundred miles on the DP, ~8k on the catback. Was bought new from COBB

I believe he's trying to sell the system as a whole. It would work great with your accessport, since you are getting one as well.
