spend some real money and go with a Greddy Evo or Tanabe hyper medallion, AWESOME sounding exhausts, give the car a clean, smooth low growl that doesn't get too much attention from the po-po

My opinion I would spend money on an OEM Gst-gsx catback for a non turbo Eclipse. I've read they would fit and add some power yet keep the noise down too. Stay clear of those trash can mufflers,they sux
and are nothing but noise too. Sure I have one but my view about it is they add no gain whatsoever. Only thing I like listening to is my Injen CAI system, muffler tips or ends are shitty and when I replace my complet exhaust this chrome muffler turd will a flower pot for my lawn. :)

my only question with replacing the existing cat-back with the oem gst/gsx is price. i would doubt that it is 2.5 piping but if a 2.5 catback will cost me 100-200 more i feel as if i would be better of going that route. although later on down the road i would like to put a turbo on my car so i may have to upgrade again. opinions anyone????

Tsudo N1 catback from ebay, $200 shipped and once it is broken in, it is beautiful.
