I have been looking into exhaust.

Any suggestion on which one? Sharkworks looks good.

Gorgeous car!!! Wished I could have both

Non S is fine with me. Once tuned, it's all the same power.

I do like my PCCB's and a few other S options though.

Thanks! I wish I could own both too.

And I was lucky the original owner optioned mine out with all the options including PCCBs. ZOMG love em.

Cheers!

Which Cobb tune are you running? My car came with the Soeedtech exhaust but stock cats and I’m using a stage 1 Cobb tune. I assume with your Europipe you are using the free flow cats and I’m debating about upgrading to HJS 200 to match my Exhaust...wondering is this would be a stage 2 setup.

Thanks,
Jeff

I'm just running the OTS Stg. 2 - 93 oct. tune that came on the Cobb AP.

I'm not 100% sure if the stock cats are the limiting factor to be able to go to the Stg. 2 tune or not.
I'm sure it wold certainly help things stay coolers / safer. Yes, my Europipe has the 100 cell cats.

To be honest, If it's within your budget, I'd sell what you have and just buy a Europipe!! You will NOT regret it, I promise.
It's all one unit and is SO well made.

However, if you do decide to just upgrade the cats with what you have, the OTS Stg. - 93 tune should be very safe to run.

Keep me posted!! Love your car!!

Thanks, glad to hear you are running the stage 2 without issue and just with the exhaust and cats. I’ve heard that free flowing cats would be my next step to stage 2 and that I should stick with stage 1 with oem cats.

I know the europipe seems to be universally loved, but I’m also really loving the sound of the SpeedTech option. Purely based on my direct experience with my exhaust and sound clips of the europipe, I prefer mine. Especially on startup. However, I think you can only really tell in person so I hope to find someone in Seattle to compare at some point.

I’ve heard others talk about drone with the SpeedTech but I don’t have any drone and I’m very familiar with aftermarket exhausts and sensitive to drone.

The HJS cats are about $2k and given how fast my car already is...I think I’ll wait a while before considering any upgrades.

Jeff
