Help Budget Exhaust? [COUPE]
Budget Exhaust? [COUPE]
Hey guys!
I recently bought a 2012 G37S Coupe (first car I've owned personally actually), and am starting to consider the things I want done.
I've been scouring the forums, and found some useful info, but not much specifically about "budget exhaust."
I've been thinking I want to buy a full CBE so I don't chop up the stock exhaust (want to return entirely to stock if I ever sell it). However, muffler deletes, resonator deletes, etc. are not totally out of the question.
I truly love the way the car sounds stock but obviously I want more out of her. I know exhaust isn't going to do much of anything power-wise, so sound and cost are the key goals here. I want to maintain a low rumble sound, not super ricey, that doesn't drone much at low engine speeds, but really kind of roars when i step on it a little. Youtube has proved minimally helpful for exhaust sounds.
I've looked at Fast Intentions, HKS, Borla, and several others, and loved the way the HKS Hi-Power CBE sounds, but I have a hard time justifying spending $1200 on an exhaust set-up... Any thoughts? Can I get a truly nice sound for CHEAP?
