Turbo XS exhaust

Whoever has bought this exhaust I want their opinions?

I have heard good and bad, but I want a separate thread just dedicated for comments, thanks.

Oh, and if someone could, soundclips would be AWESOME!

cheers!

I've had it for 4 months now, The tips look great, it sounds great, fitment was good. But i got a defective one. They had some hardware problems they've probably fixed that though. I don't know the exact weight but it's pretty damn light aswell. honestly it's the best all around exhaust IMHO for the ralliart. Good looks, sound, and weight for it being a dual exit. This is probably why i've put up with all it's issues. I say go for it see if you can pick up the test pipe with it aswell. It really puts out a nice growl .

sorry to chime in since i don't have the Turbo XS, but the HKS Legamax Premium is dual exhaust, and titanium tip too. if you don't have to pay full msrp (who does nowadays? ), i totally recommend the catback and the downpipe. there's no cat available, but i just bought the UR high flow since i want to be as (close to) legal as possible.

we installed it on a hoist in about 35 minutes. no fitment issues, tips are perfectly centered, and it sounds great! a little drone off throttle in the high 1600rpm range, but who sits that low anyway?

I love the HKS, but it's only 2 1/2" piping and not 3" otherwise, trust me, it would have been installed on my car already.

you're not going to see much difference in performance with the horsepower we're making anyway. you'll just get added cabin noise more than anything else.

my friend was telling me 2.5" piping will flow well up to 400whp, and he has a 10 second Talon so i don't doubt his advice.

I know that the Legamax muffler is pretty quiet by itself, but is your whole exhaust system still fairly quiet since you also changed out the stock downpipe, stock midpipe, and stock Cat?

it's around 70dB at idle, 78-80 cruising and 92-95dB at full throttle. it's MUCH louder than stock at WOT. hwy cruising you can hear road noise over the exhaust, it's super quiet.
