I'm not familiar with this CBE, jaycz. I will do look into it. You have it on yours?

I heard good things about both Stillen and Invidia. Are you happy with your invidia? I think I will definitely go double walled, as that looks less ricey to me.

I had FI before and it sounds awesome slightly on the louder side as compared to Invidia which I have now. There will be some drone in Fast Intention between 2.2k to 2.9k rpms and yes it sit a bit low.

I am totally happy with Invidia, tips have options to choose from, you can have plain SS ones as stock as well and are adjustable. Sound is just perfect you only hear it loud when pushing the car like crazy else it serves the purposde.

Last but not the least cheapest of all other out there.

Technically the tips are about the same size as the other exhausts and it sits up underneath the car a lot more than the FI exhaust so "cops" will see less of the exhaust. Not to mention the extra resonators make it one of the quietest exhausts to get but is nice and deep and throaty when pushed over 4k RPMs. It's an amazing exaust but ultimately it's your decision. I'm just giving you the hard facts that you may be over looking.

My 2nd choice would be a GTM or Greddy exhaust as a tie.

My 3rd choice would be FI. Great sounding and performing exhaust but it sits too low for some people and the waiting times to get this to your house are ridiculous in my opinion.

There's no rasp or drone right now with stock cats and Stillen G3 and no VQ hiss either. I'm sure swapping out the cats will give some hiss though. I'm awaiting Motordyne ART pipes right now and supposedly there's no drone or rasp either. The only regret is that the tips are too easy for somebody to steal. Two tiny hex screws on each tip. I'll probably make the tips permanent with a torch.
