I'm planning on getting an exhaust soon. I'm still undecided.

I like the way the 5 Zigen and TK-Sport exhaust looks. Something about the angle tip... It has a "je ne sais quo" about it.

I left MG Racing a message about the TK-Sport exhaust, but they haven't replied yet.

My alternative choose is the HKS hiper exhaust. I know someone who lost power with this exhaust. That's one of the main reasons why I haven't gotten this.

Another alternative is the Amuse ti exhaust. The tip of the exhaust looks cool. I also like the angled look. I would prefer two mufflers though.

Anyone here with a 5 Zigen exhaust? I'm wondering how loud it is.

I have the Spoon Header/exhaust and have had it for awhile.
I love it. It's loud, very light, all stainless and the headers are polished(now there gold tinted).
The down side is it comes with a straight pipe for the cat that I can't use

Unless his dyno sheet was wrong...

Comptech. Awesome sound, great quality, 12 lbs lighter than stock, increased hp (minimal as with all others), and great looks.

I got the Neuspeed (actually made by Borla). Love the sound, not too loud and great looking tips. The price was irresistable. Actually, Mingsters just put up another post. He's got 3 left @$498.00? Hurry!

Amuse is what I like best, but it's too loud and too expensive. I'm getting the Mugen instead. It's lightweight, dual tips, and has a deeper tone w/o being too loud.

In Asheville, I got to hear Neuspeed, Comptech and HKS. Personally, I found the Comptech's note to be awesome. Check my signature to see what I decided on.

I'm going to get the J's N1. It sounds just pure racecar like. Maybe too loud, but we'll see.

The HKS is exactly what I wanted in an exhaust. It sounds/looks great and the construction quality is incredible. I'm still partial to my HKS over all the rest. I am biased, however.
