What exhaust will you all recommend

Guys over at singapore are trying to figure which exhaust will be good for both manual and auto. The intended exhaust is actually fujitsubo but heard from somewhere that for autos they will lose the low end.

We cant go for something that is too loud and has titanium tips so thats whats making it so hard. Hope some members can shed some light on this matter. Thanks in advance.

Went with the racing beat unit and am very favorably impressed. It adds a deep throaty note to the exhaust, but is not tinny or buzzy, and is not loud. Will not wake the neighbors at night.

i got the b&b and it's pretty loud... then i got the rp midpipe and got REALLY loud. i heard the greddy and it sounds nice.

in my opinion... racing beat and mazdaspeed are wayyy too conservative... yes they work and will last forever but... not really the kick i need

I'm happy with Cork Sport. Excellent track sound, easy to mudulate tone on the street, looks great too.

Thanks for the feedback guys really appreciate it. I just didnt get the part bout the "kick", issit the sound or power gains?

Do the gurus know of brands that specialise in exhaust (e.g. fujitsubo) and wont cause power loss in both drivetypes

Do you mean they arent as powerful as yours, or just arent as loud as yours?

No exhaust is going to give you substantially more hp then the others. All (major brands) are about 2-3 hp. I have Racing Beat & I love it.

I have GReddy SP2. Love it, sounds great (not loud, just right IMO)!
Hmmm...I definately didn't get a 15-19 hp gain. But nevertheless, it FEELS like I did because it sounds so much better than stock. Tips are awesome also and it fits the space perfectly.
I considered Racing Beat as well, that rocks too!

JIC titanium

I have a single exit JIC titanium out the left side at an angle, looks mean as hell. Also with the SR Motorsports Free flow catylic converter. 3" mandrel bent piping to the JIC Bullet canister. It's loud but sounds so mean, i can't wait to install my speed force racing turbo kit! I wanted something different and more straight through for flowing purposes.
