It doesn't seem to matter. Every IX that I have seen dyno'd with a TBE and reflash made nearly identical power. (lots of it!)

$800-900 and extremely loud? Sounds like the opposite of what you want.

Then you definetly dont want a Titanium exhaust... look at the Fujitsubo or however you spell it if you want a low noise as possible.

Yeah, anything TI will be very loud. If you really want something quiet, then you're going to end up spending $600 or so and only gain 7-10whp. Are you sure it's worth it?

No,donīt worth it,of course....but I donīt want to spend more money in aspirins like my HKS HI-TI 4" that I have in my Supra TT....is a killer sound!!

Ok I think on it but I think that I will buy the greddy...

My Perrin was a little pricey, but it is reguarded as one of the best cat back exhaust that isn't too loud. It's still pretty loud though because it's still a straight through 3" exhaust with hardly any bends to restrict the flow. It's what the Vishnu guys recommend and they don't build it so I guess that says something. My exhaust system was quieter when I was running the cat obviously. Check it out.

THe Greddy is WAY louder, the most annoying part is the drone at FWY speeds though. Im running the Turbo XS now, no complaints.
