been waiting for this but damn... pretty disappointed. you'd really expect a lot more from a company like Meisterschaft.

race start wasn't used and the exhaust honestly sounds worse than stock. i'm glad I got the performance exhaust from the factory

Factory performance exhaust definitely has one of nicer tones, I have it myself but I wish it was a little louder.

I actually think this one sounds better than some of the others, probably better than Armytrix and definitely better than the IPE system!

I just wish more companies would release catback exhausts as I have no intention of changing the downpipe or trying to make more power on the car :-/

Nice catback would give that more aggressive sound without compromising power train warranty

Not sure if it's the quality of the clip but I'm actually disappointed with this. Armytrix sounds more aggressive and has a nicer tone to me. Still a few months before I get my car but I'm thinking I'll stick with the performance exhaust and add the Weistec downpipe for the power gains and increased exhaust note initially. Might go with Armytrix down but the road.

I bet this exhaust sounds great in person. Sorry to say it but you can't judge any of these exhaust by a youtube video. My IPE exhaust sounds completely different in person compared to the videos. It doesnt even come close. The biggest change in sound is going to come from the upgraded DP, The performance exhaust sounds great....if you want to go all out then scoop the catback.

I don't disagree with you hence why I'm hoping they'll have a better Soundclip available down the road. The good thing is I have time on my side so it's not like I have to make a decision right away. Rebellion also just released their downpipe/midpipe combo which will be compatible with the exhaust they have in development. Most of the sound and power upgrade comes from the DP/midpipe upgrade anyways,

I think most of these systems will sound very very similar, most of the mufflers are designed in a very similar fashion. What you really hear from this car is the motor....once you free up that downpipe the motor is really what you hear. I would bet that all of these systems sound great. Price and brand preference will be the deciding factor.
