Best exhaust for dc5r?

[chargeR]

But...

What suspension are you running?
What rims are you running?
What tyres are you running?
What do you use the car for?
What ECU do you have?

The users on this forum that can answer these questions know that your exhaust is warranted.

I read Watajk's build thread earlier today
Tossing up if he should get Buddyclub N+ or Tein Monoflex coilovers
Running VS-XX (Or simular)
Couldn’t find any specs
Mostly road use with "possible" Track use
OEM ECU

You can see that a $2.5k cat back exhaust isn't exactly... the best next move.

Watajk: This isn’t an attack at you, or the mods you have performed to your car, just using it as an example.

True. And honestly I don't think the Amuse R1 or the J's 70RR or anything similar are the best exhausts for the DC5 by anyone's definition. Beautifully made and a good sound along with very light weight but not perfect. For street use I would prefer a stainless 3" with a few mufflers in it, for track a 70mm titanium straight pipe. Although this wouldn't be acceptable at CAMS events that require a muffler, but it would be fun until you got black flagged.

Can anyone recommend their preferred exhaust fabricators? I think a lot of the bias against custom work comes from people going to their local crappy muffler shop and being disappointed. There is no reason a local welder can't make something just as high quality as the JDM stuff.

nah urs doesnt count. u do like 1000kms a year and 600 of them are getting to n from racetracks....

I have done somewhere around 60-70,000kms since I put my Amuse exhaust on, you're right though I hardly drive it these days .
