Get the TTE/Remus duals. I prefer the oval tips of the TTE myself. They have a nice throaty sound once they warm up. They are louder though.

I always thought owners felt that the TTE was too quite and reserved compared to the others  s:?: :?: s:?:

H & S every time   s:twisted: :twisted: s:twisted:  

A friend of mine with an elise had a drive of my 2 with the H & S exhaust.  All he could say when he got out was how much cooler my car sounded than his.    s8) 8) s8)

It is pretty quiet.   s:? :? s:?   Of course, the Apexi CAI helps with the sound.  s:wink: :wink: s:wink:    s:twisted: :twisted: s:twisted:

The exhaust sounds at low speed/low revs (30mph in 3rd/4th), and the Apexi takes over as the speed/revs rise (past 4kish). So both sounds happen at different times – one flowing into the other. Kind of.

I'm looking forward to adding my PPE manifold and Hi-flow Cat when it arrives.  Should sound pretty awsome coupled with the H&S and my A'pexi CAI.   s:twisted: :twisted: s:twisted:  

You'll find me doing the QE2 bridge/Dartford tunnel circuit the day it's fitted!   s:D :D s:D

if you don't what it to loud or boomy the TRD exhaust & AEM intake make a wonderful growl together. just a tad deeper at idle, no boomy sound, and a great growl in the car & outside the car when getting on the gas.
