After-market exhaust on the Roadster?

That would be my beastie and the sound is fantastic in a roadster!

Greddy Ti-C...Very nice, hardly more noticeable at idle, deep rumble between idle and 3K and growls when pass 3k. No drone and no rasps. Very nice

OEM Nismo with Berk HFC. Had OEM Nismo first but it was almost no difference over the stock. Wife said it was almost quieter than stock. The HFC made a difference. It is not loud, silent on the freeway (the road noise is louder and wind noise even louder if you have the top down). It sounds deep around town and pretty quiet in the higher RPMs. No trouble with the police (4 cops living on my street). Good combo but thinking about getting FI with 18" resonator. Anyone has that combo on a roadster?

I have FI with 18" resonators and love it.

Is it loud? I know it is a subjective term but are you able to hear it driving down the freeway (drone)? How about when the top is down?

I just got mine... I got used to the sound and now it's pretty good. It sounds deep when you step on it during low RPM, but quiet just crusin around. I think my ECU is still adjusting because the Synchro Rev Match is acting kinda weird, but I do like the roar when it's doing it's thing though...

Bringing back the dead. Any chance you could do a sound clip from within your roadster? Thinking of going this route. Thanks in advance

For those who have the FI exhaust, do you have the 12" or 18" resonators?

What is the typical cost of installation for new exhaust at your shop?

These exhaust are very easy to swap out. I don't think mine took more than 45 minutes and I was in no rush. Just required a big breaker bar on a couple of the nuts, but nothing too horrible.

This would be a nice choice at a very cheap yet quality exhaust.


*RARE* used Akrapovic exhaust
