My question to you guys is, why the hell can't another exhaust company make a similar exhaust that comes close to making the GT HAUS awesome exhaust note? Don't get me wrong, I think the GTHAUS it's sweet but no way in hell will I ever pay over 3 to 4k for an exhaust, much alone even 2k.

I bet there's a Borla muffler that sounds as good or better, because for decades that's been Borla's primary marketing point... The sound. Having heard a few on American V8’s, I would agree, it's sweet as all get out. IDK about the VQ37HR, however. Also, I got the impression on G35Driver that the Borla full cat back isn't all that in terms of quality and fitment. (Hearsay)

I like what I hear from the ARK setup, but if the GT Haus cat back were comparably priced, I'd want that instead, too. But like you, I can't justify/rationalise it. Just can't. Its all relative... People probably have the same assessment comparing Topspeed to Fast Intentions.

The GT Haus exhaust is super expensive. I looked into it recently and I think I still made a good choice buying my MXP exhaust of course the decision was much easier since it was a partial sponsorship I do get a lot of compliments on it

Glad to see all of you still chatting away on this thread. I've been way too busy at work to logon from there and chime in and when I get home I'm too beat to want to sit in front of the computer. Here's a few pics of our SoCal Driven team BBQ a couple of weekends ago.

SC sounds very tempting but with all the restrictions in CA it isn't worth going Stillen to get CARB stickers to only get 400HP. Think I'm going to join the aired out family. Thanks for the compliments but I'm only trying to keep up with you.

Air it out, man. If this wasn't a "family" car as my wife puts it, I'd have a true racecar to play with. Keep us up to date!

This truly is the plan. I raised my car 1" all the way around and I keep scraping the carbon fiber lip on my driveway.

Here's a few more pics for ya'll

Actually all the cars are quite tasty but these three seem extra delicious
