Is it just me or do all these exhaust sound nearly the damn same lol
It's not you. Many of them sound the same. And the improvement in exhaust note relative to cost is a not so compelling proposition.

Seems like Honda provided a great exhaust from the factory, most don't add that much power, and most aren't significantly lighter for the cost. Only if they could make it sound like the Type S would be the improvement.

I think it sounds good, pretty similar to some others. AWE makes good stuff. Definitely a big jump up from stock. I don't think the Milltek sounds any better for example and the AWE is likely slightly cheaper.

I also know it is hard to capture the true exhaust sound on video. I think my favorite exhaust I have heard is the LHT one-off full titanium, but that is not something you can just buy (except for whatever lucky person picked up the prototype).

If I go the full exhaust route this will definitely be at the top of my list. I am curious if the vid is of the "Touring" or "Track" configuration.

Not to worry! Full sound clips and all of the information will be up next week.

This was just a little taste of the Touring Edition to alert everyone that it will be available soon. :cool:

The primary difference between the CTR and ITS exhaust is the CTR has 2 resonators... I had an AWE exhaust on my GTI and loved it. Waiting to see what this one comes in at price wise. I like the look of the tips...

Oh that's just the Touring? So the Track will be rowdier?

I think it sounds great. I wasn’t in the market for an aftermarket exhaust but this one is making me think about it.

Sound was fine for me as well. If i can have control over the note from what we heard in video short and stock or close to it. I will gladly give my money to the local spot too

Perfect. I went AWE on my previous generation Type R. Time to go with the track version again on my 2023 on Boost Blue.

I'll wait for this one to come out :)
