I can't find the thread now that had the image of a european exhaust- thought it was the Milltek. If it was, I would NOT buy that exhaust because it looked like it had either a flat plate, or maybe a slightly scalloped plate in the same place where the factory DP is flat. Definitely not a high-power piece.

This is a toughie since what you like may or may not be what I like. As for TBE, the only complete TBE I'm aware of is Harman Motive, if your plan is to go single brand all the way through. Otherwise, you'll have to go with a DP and another brand CBE, although this will change as more companies which currently have a DP get their CBEs into production.

It looks like you're going with a CBE more for the looks than anything so I'm assuming staying with the stock CBE is not an option for you. Otherwise, you can get very, very, very close to full TBE performance with only a DP, and of course engine management, such as the Cobb AP.

why would you spend $1000 for the harman with the magnaflow muffler when you can get the same magnaflow muffler from magnaflow for under $500?

with the money you save, you could almost buy an accessport.

If someone were stuck on getting it all from one manufacturer, they could go with Perrin. The resulting system would have 2 cats and two single tips instead of dual tips, but it is available right now. Dual tips are coming from Perrin, but not for a bit longer.

Is it me, or do those flared tips on the Magnaflow look even sweeter than the HM tips? Maybe I'll buy the Magnaflow and add a resonator myself...

BIC makes one for the mkiii supra. the ct26 turbo has the same basic integral wastegate design as the ihi turbos, and it works great.
