Brand name exhaust system or mufflers and tips?

Hey guys,

I'm considering getting an exhaust system going as my stock Bathurst system just doesn't have enough umpf behind it. I've seen a few like Japseed (the insanely loud one) and Nurburg R or something that a lot of people swear by.

What are people opinions on kit exhausts, or just getting a hi-flow muffler and 2.5in tips put onto the stock system instead?

    Also what are people's opinions on going decat? I know it's not a turbo so I won't be flame spitting but I can imagine it'll allow the exhaust to breathe and flow better

    I had a decat apexi single exit and going decat adds a raspiness to the exhaust note. Some people hate it and some love it so if you can I'd suggest hearing a decat NA MR2 before going that way.
     
    I ended up getting rid of that setup and getting a Legalis R with cat and it both looked and sounded much better IMO. I think the Legalis R is one of the best looking exhausts but I'm biased since I'm selling it atm ;)

    I really want a Legalis R system haha, how much and where are you based? I recently bought a HKS single tip exhaust which I fitted up but I don't like the look so I'm trying to resell for a loss :(

    I'm in Brisbane. Yeh the single tip doesn't look right on the 2! I have the Legalis R advertised for $650 on my sale thread but I'd let it go for $500 if your interested? What gen engine are you running? If your interested I also have a Tanabe Medallion 4-1 headers including the mid pipe. I'd give you a good price if you wanted the whole package :)

    Currently negotiating a trade with another member, but I'll keep your offer in mind.

    I do want the Legalis, but if I can trade my current system it means I'll be able to get rid of it - rather than buy yours and still have my spare one haha
