Default Exhaust!! I dont know what to do. Help!!

So heres my dilemma. I really want to purchase an exhaust, but there seems to be only 3 choices: HKS Legamax, Greddy Spectrum Elite, or have a shop custom build me one. I think they all have to many faults what do i do.

My first Choice:Greddy

By far better sounding to me than the HKS, but almost a whole $300 dollars more exspensive.

2nd choice: HKS

Sounds great, don't get me wrong and it's about $600, but Greddy and HKS are both only axle back systems. What I really want is a true exhaust from the header back. So.

3rd choice: Custom

Sounds like the champ of them all, but no hard evidence if it makes the Hp gains we are all looking for. Plus I live in a smaller town and who can guess how savvy these guys are here.

Looking for some other choices. Or even some hard hitting facts on what i've listed, more than anything Greddy Dyno #'s. Please help me decide.

There are so many exhaust choices out there. You are really limiting yourself by only concidering those options. Here is a very nice option.

Genesis Coupe 2.0T Catback Exhaust

in addition they are having a 25% off sale right now.

Yes this is very nice but designed for 2.0T. I'm finding the options for the 3.8 is a bit more limited as of now. Sorry if did not post I drove the 3.8

All those exhausts you posted above sound very much the same...just get the one thats the cheapest..as every exhaust is going to sound very much remotely similar with the v6.

I'm sorry about that, our exhaust does fit the v-6 model too. Here is the video your looking for.


Thanks,

I choose the magnaflow for the 3.8 due to the reason that it produces the sound of an american muscel (or at least the closest)

I noticed in the cp-e video, the genesis says 2.0T but when it goes in the cockpit it has a push start button. Doesn't the V6's only have the push start? I have the 2.0GT and I got no push start. A few holes in that video.

^nope, my 2.0T track has the push button and I believe the premium 2.0T's do too. As for the exhaust there seems to be a lot to choose from now. If I had to pick from the OP's three, I think the HKS sounds the best, but seems a little pricey to me. If I had the cash right now I would probably get the Magnaflow, cp-e, exceladyne and there was another one I liked, but I lost my links and can't remember who made it...
