Smile Decisions on aftermarket cat-backs

Im looking for a cat-back for my EVO X MR, I really like the AMuse R1 cat-back being lite 19lbs, but its expensive for $3100 US. I need An cat-back that is really light and good flow, but not really noisy when I connect with Ultimate Racing hi-flow cat, and 02 housing downpipe. So which ones would you guys consider?1. Bushur Racing Cat-back: Lite and flows really well. $850.002. Tanabe Concept G cat-back $805.003. Apexi RS Cat-back $1019.004. Blitz NUR spec-r cat-back $1200.00

Are you looking for dual exit exhausts? If not, AMS or Greddy has some pretty nice single exit exhausts. I think Trust makes a dual exit exhaust that looks great and is bound to give you power boosts...look here.

I would suggest T1R, a very well welded exhaust

i have the ETS dual but i am thinking of changing to the TiC for a couple reasons, 1. i like the looks of the single better 2. lightness 3. and the tips of the ETS hang too low for me.

lol yea i still didnt get mine. but the difference is im only going with ams products so all i need to do is decide whether to wait for their duals in the spring or just go ahead and get the single thats out now. If everything goes as plan with my financial situation which looks like it isan't so i might just end getting like a hfc or wait for their o2 housing eliminator mid feb. but its extremely difficult finding the right exhaust for the right price. Perrin is an affordable and great option which i considered before deciding to go ams. sucks being a student

Amuse is the best. I had it but it wasn't loud enough. Super lightweight though

Sorry guys but anybody that would pay 3k for a exhaust is a idiot. I know I know its nice to have the best but come on 3k for a exhaust, maybe if it made like 100hp more than everything else haha... With the minimal bends in the evo x exhaust I think their all overpriced!!!
