What do you think?

Keep my OEM exhaust (put in garage) or get rid of it? Want to get Greddy Ti-C.

I think aftermarket exhausts on this car are a waste of money, personally. The stock sound is more than adequate (and better than almost any stock exhaust on the market under $50k)....

Its always better to keep your oem parts. Anytime you run into a problem or want to trade in your car, you won't have to worry about the aftermarket parts.

But is there any exhausts out there that can keep the VQ howl but amplify the sound 1.5 times?

Frankly ( I know I'm going to get flamed) the stock exhaust is perfect. Let's people know there is no weenie 4 banger in there but isn't so loud to constantly hear this exhaust drone from inside. I didn't spend 40K to not have a quiet cabin. Now I know there performance reasons for after market exhaust and if you track your car, etc .... then fine.

I think the ARK offers a pretty good balance. I like it better than when I had the Tanabe actually.

But definitely keep your stock parts.

I cant stand the robotic sound of the stock exhaust...it reminds me of tie fighters from star wars. I'm going with Fast Intentions

Oh and...keep your oem exhaust. never know when you might need to put it back on..
