If you’re looking into the Remark R1, install a resonator, the drone is there and it’s deep and it’ll make your head hurt, order the silencer too if you got kids, that’s what I did

[@Jbargnani94]

Compared to stock, is it loud?

[@surpos3281]

In case anyone wants to just hear the exhaust sound instead of mumbo jumbo AWE Exhaust- 2:32 MAP Catback- 6:22 Remark R1-Spec- 9:52 Invidia Gemini R400- 11:50 MBRP Single Exit- 13:30

[@sameerpandya1947]

You should have addressed drone for each exhaust.

[@realaveragegamer3053]

I just installed the Nameless 3.5 inch catback w/muffler delete. Great exhaust with great rumble. Need a jpipe for more noise.

[@DaHiddenGemz]

I've got the blue remark boso axleback on my VB and I really like it.

[@yoltsbp]

Remark has some serious competition now that afd has a titanium tip ss single exit for 550$. I got mine for 465$ shipped with their sale and promo code and let me say it’s top tier quality no doubt and sounds amazing and looks even better.

[@Luis_sd_wrx]

I installed the Invidia r400 on my 2021 WRX with the titanium tips i love it

[@jusblue1495]

Same, just yesterday, but on a 2023!

[@TimothySmith]

I absolutely need to know the wheels and tires on the WRX that demonstrated the Invidia 😮

[@KingNoahJM]

All great choices, love my ETS axleback with anodized tips, feel it would've been a good choice here, but understand why not, a bit expensive. To each their own.

[@mooreweasel]

Yeah I have cat back ets resonated mid pipe and muffled exhaust. Loud when you get on with no drone under 75ish. I can't believe ets wasn't feature here

[@WrxJapanguy]

My wife says my vb wakes her up stock as it is every morning, the wrx has a notorious 1-1 1/2 minute long cold start, best I can do is probably a nameless with 4” mufflers and hope she doesn’t notice 😂

[@maperformance]

The VB cold start is definitely noticeable!

[@jonathanisenhour7923]

For those that have these or have tried multiple, what's a good choice that increases sound, but keeps the interior drone down? Compared to stock.

[@Darwins_cream_genes]

Which exhaust will wake up my entire neighborhood when I leave at 4:30 am but i dont want to hear it in the car. Its for everybody elses benefit not mine

[@ash2092013]

I just got my the cat back MBRP quad carbon fiber tips. They are a great product

[@maperformance]

Glad you like them!

[@annoyerboka]

Not very loud but have tremble feeling.. Very nice exhaust.. Expecially AWE track..

[@mooreweasel]

Yeah that deep little rumble was sick.

[@thetruthspeaker5101]

It would be nice to hear how these compare to the Subaru STI exhaust

[@karlkincaid8773]

Been running AWE since I got my VB. No drone AT ALL on the highway (girlfriend verified) but pin it and holy sh*t. It's perfect. The no drone stuff tey do is real. Also had their system on my VA. No other options IMO lol! Keep up the godo work on the videos and the mustache.

[@maperformance]

AWE's exhausts are by far one of the best on the market! With the amount of time and technology that goes into them it's a no brainer half the time.

[@iziiboygames5782]

Did you go with the touring or performance version?

[@jayc5768]

Did you go with touring or track version?

[@karlkincaid8773]

@@jayc5768 oh man, I totally missed this! First I went with track, but then I got their conversion kit and went to touring.

[@The_SL0WRX]

SPT here, rocking ETS catback but looking for a Q300 review to decide whether I should switch or not!

[@maperformance]

Noted! Thank you for your support 🙌

[@The_SL0WRX]

@@maperformance hope to see you guys do a review on touring type exhaust for those that want loud but not too extreme!!!

[@maperformance]

@@The_SL0WRX That would be our MAPerformance Street exhaust or the AWE touring exhaust. Both are mild volumes, without sacrificing good sound/tone!

[@billszozda4448]

With the MA street exhaust, is there any drone? Or out of all of these which would have the least amount of drone?

[@maperformance]

Hello 👋 multiple people here at MAP have driven the WRX with our Street exhaust and have been pleasantly surprised with the lack of drone! It's very minimal to non existent. The most comparable exhaust featuring little to no drone would be the AWE touring exhaust.

[@B005T3D]

I have the remark r1 with an ets downpipe. Some say drone, I say it’s like Barry White humming down the road. 😅

[@PeterHernandez-lg2eh]

I'm good with spt catback for my 2006 Subaru sti

[@michaelfleming8171]

AWE TRACK VERSION GRIMMSPEED J-DOWNPIPE GRIMMSPEED EQL HEADERS PERFECTION 🥰 💞 🥰

[@syko4315]

Between the MA Race performance and awe track version which would you say sounds best and has less drone? Im still debating between the 2

[@maperformance]

It's hard to pinpoint which "sounds better" that's up to you as an individual and which tone you're striving for. As for exhaust drone, they're pretty evenly matched with just a smidge of drone over the MAP Street or the AWE touring editions just due to their amplified volume.

[@syko4315]

@@maperformance ok and sorry for so much question but which one wont upset much the neighbors on that 1 am cold starts? I want a loud one but not too loud to wake anyone up lol

[@karlkincaid8773]

I haven’t heard MAP in person, but the good thing about awe is you can change them from track to touring without buying a whole other exhaust

[@yip2454]

this engine giving me evos sound

[@Jbargnani94]

What’s the loudest on this list?

[@closup8907]

Was the done with a Dow pipe or oem

[@maperformance]

Stock downpipes! All exhaust

[@benitochua7326]

Is there a full exhaust system that increases HP for 2022 wrx?

[@claudio_wrx]

The Midpipe is the one that is restrictive, you get good gains is you upgrade it once you tune the car

[@dannyfeinberg3579]

you left out COBB SS 3 inch cat back!!

[@yaseenisa4744]

Is that a stock wrx with just different cat backs?

[@maperformance]

Yes! We partnered up with AWE to display their exhaust systems along with ours. The other 3 are a stock WRX with the corresponding catbacks. That way, only the exhaust tone is the variable.

[@tommyl.holliday3604]

Nothing on the Magnaflow Comp. Edition Catback??? COME ON!???

[@CRMAG87]

Which is going to be quite but no drone?

[@usafleeds13]

R400 or AWE Touring

[@Flawdaboi239]

I think the ETS titanium single exit deserves the 5th spot over MBRP. MBRP is a boomer tier brand tbh.

[@uhpstore]

Borla FTW

[@ZibrayMusic]

The magnaflow catback is the way to go 😎

[@taylormadison6654]

That’s right 💯

[@tommyl.holliday3604]

MAGNAFLOW COMP. EDITION CATBACK EXHAUST WITH QUAD BBLACK CHROME TIPS!? Where is that on your list???

[@ZibrayMusic]

@@tommyl.holliday3604 number 1 for sure.

[@BrandoMoto]

You missed the best of all Borla!

[@maperformance]

The Type-S catback is a great contender for sure!

[@mumblegaming4241]

You know the decibels for each exhaust

[@TheCheezyIndian]

Love my remark axleback! Video on my channel for sound comparison to the stock exhaust

[@maperformance]

Awesome! Great to see you're enjoying it

[@EvilKingLetsPlay]

Why are your exhaust tips looks Rusty

[@maperformance]

Not rusty! We converted this car to have lifted suspension and we've been having some fun in the dirt!

[@marcosapolinar1089]

What does VB Mean?

[@SteelyEyedMissileDan]

VengaBus

[@tronpapadop6461]

License plate cover is bought to take flight

[@ranran2218]

None of these are particularly amazing honestly. Personally waiting for tomei to release an exhaust for the vb. Also ets sounds a lot better than any on this list.

[@maperformance]

It sounds like you like it loud! We can respect that 🙏

[@leftyo9589]

Borla....................................

[@maperformance]

The Borla S-Type Catback is another great contender!

[@leh.anhquan9999]

how a new subaru sounds like my 10th gen civic lol

[@brettkw]

They all sound the same..

[@Focussed-vk6wt]

Looks like a Toyota Camry from the rear.

[@tyhyhh]

It actually looks like a vb wrx from behind

[@SpotCheckNews]

For shame. That is obviously a civic.

[@lilreyreyatomic]

A car looks like a car? Oh shit thanks for the insight

[@Macaziod]

Looks like shit from every angle...

[@kretty9207]

🥲remember when they used to build cool cars and not just sell parts? The good ol days……
