So thus far performance wise I have an AEM CAI, and RSide 4-2-1 headers. I really want to finish up the exhaust with a Motoria catback but I want an exhaust that won't give me any fitment problems. Do you think I should go custom?

I know that Patreezy has my headers but I dont know what kind of exhaust he has on his car, and Hobgoblin had the KORE catback which is discontinued..

I'm open to suggestions.=)

Are the headers already installed? Did they fit your stock exhaust? Then you should have no problems with motoria.

Just make sure you get a cat to get rid of the buzz and maybe even a glasspack.

Headers are in. They bolted right up to stock exhaust.

I was thinking about getting a catco cat, and a thrush glasspack (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg...?v=glance&s=hi)

And I assume the best place to purchase a Motoria is off ImportShark? Isnt it $215 shipped?

I like your plan. You shouldn't have any fitment issues, but you are getting a glasspack put in as well as a cat, so if anything doesn't fit right, they could fix it for you right on the spot.

I have the motoria catback. Fitment is 100% perfect. Install took 25 mins with a friend. Sounds great also

I agree with the above post.
I myself have the motoria exhaust , and with no issues at all.
Except that one of my rubber hanger things was toast, but I replaced that easy as pie, and it's been smooth sailing.

Not yet, I just ordered the Racing Headers from KSpec.com today though, so we will see what they sound like after that.

You can expect a different sound.. not necessarily better though. Header is usually the scapegoat for buzzing. Under hard throttle the sound of your exhaust will stay strong with the header, whereas it usually is taken over by the motor with just a catback itself.

If I can somehow find an APEXi catback, I'd sell you my MBRP. Sorta loud, but I put the hi-flow cat on there and now I think it sounds nice. I'd be keeping the cat though but I can show you which one I got.
If you're interested PM me.
