Default 3" thermal exhaust for turbo setup??? Any sound bites?

Ive been told that this is a good exhaust to go with but i really want to go with something else. What do you guys think. And does anyone know where i can find some sound clips of this exhaust?

From what I've heard this is a good exhaust for FI cars... You may wanna check in the forced induction section, I think several people over there are runnin' it on their rides... btw, if you've heard this is a good exhaust, why are you so insistant on using something else, is it the name brand or something??? Do you wanna be able to say you have GReddy or Apex'i??? I sincerely hope it is because you had a bad experience with thermal r&d parts before or know someone who has, rather than just wanting a name brand that everyone in your neigborhood recognises... Sorry for the rant, but several people i know bought parts because they saw cars on F&F with those stickers on their cars and i'd hate to see another person do the same...

nope thats not me. I do for me and me only. Oh yea and the F&F was queer. How do you have direct port nitrous and a fogger system, plus a "cool air" intake with a turbo setup????? DOesn't make sense. No see my car is all jdm except for the turbo setup and im wanting to run JIC exhaust cause they are the ****.

I remember downloading a video in the Forced Induction forum of a '96-'00 CIvic coupe running a Thermal and it didn't sound bad at all. You may want to try a search over there.

LOL. It's good to be enthusiastic, but keep it down a bit. Although I still think it sounds good if you have the power.

yeah dude, i have the thermal classic system and it sounds great. its not annoying and loud, its a nice deep rumble that sounds very nice. for the price and quality you get its comparable to the greddy and apexi systems. very nice fit as well.
