Which Exhaust???

I'm looking to get an exhaust fro xmas and was wondering what you guys think the best exhaust would be for the 8. Im looking to spend around $600 so hit me up with some ideas. I was something kinda deep but I wanna hear some suggestions!

My Mazdaspeed is deep, but very quiet.

You have to get a bit more specific. What's your tolerance to exhaust noise? What's your tolerance to drone at cruising speeds?

Pretty much all of the exhausts are decent. Just pick one, I'm sure you will be happy
with it.

What year is your car? If it is an '09, Racing Beat has a nice heavy deep sounding dual can with four tips for $700. Yikes

Hks hi power, It's deep and I got compliments left and right about it...only downside is single sided which to me is not a big deal at all...500 bucks...also my buddy in the area has an exoticspeed r1-t which i think sounds almost just as good it's great and not alot of ppl have it...I'm not sure how much it is I think around the 700 range?

The Corksport exhaust has a nice tone to it and fits your budget.

I've heard lots of good things about the new turboxs full exhaust system. Turboxs runs a special deal on it right now. Further, this exhaust won't melt your shrouds.

Just installed the Turbo XS with midpipe and the fitment was perfect and it sounds great, a little loud but it does not drone and with a non resonated catless midpipe, loud is to be expected. Overall I was very impressed for the price and I am not a proponent of exhaust on this car due to the high prices and little to no HP gain.

The week prior I helped install a HKS single side with a RB midpipe and it is unreasonably loud and drones bit according to the owner. I could not live with it.

For $499.00 shipped, I don't think you could do better than the Turbo XS. If money is no option the get the BHR mid-pipe and the Borla Catback.

TurboXS has a very deep, one of the deepest exhausts and it's $499.00 and comes with a midpipe and it is SHIPPED! I used to have the Racingbeat catback before this and this is DEEPER! This new version is very high quality and looks great. The thick angle cut tips go really well with the exhaust shrouds on the 8. You can't beat the price!
