ASPEC axel back exhaust

Just finished installing the ASPEC axel back with burnished tip on my 07 Taffeta Fit. I was very pleased with the overall quality of the product right out of the box, nice clean, solid welds, excellent quality. As far as installation goes it was very simple just two bolts and two exhaust hangers, everything matched up perfectly in place of oem, even had enough room to leave oem heatshield in place. The exhaust looks great mounted on the car very subtle and mounts at that slight angle that has become so popular. The system sounds great, not too loud when it doesn't need to be and not ricey at all, just a low, deep, aggressive sounding tone that sounds even better as RPM's increase. At first i was wary about ordering this product because it's soooo cheap, and after dealing with HKS and Tanabe on my Subaru knew that I would probably be expecting too much from this little exhaust, let me tell you I was not let down at all!!!!! Great product overall, and I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for a great exhaust but without spending the money people associate with great exhaust systems. Throttle response improved slightly as did power in lower to mid rpm's. I will try and post some pics later.

I also have the aspec axel back, and let me tell you combined with the aspec cold air intake it sounds great! You get two distinct notes from either end of the car under hard acceleration. I love it! A little buzzy around 5k, but that clears up by 5300. Overall a great combo!

Ya, I agree. I was not expecting much with the price being so low but what a surprise. Good quality, perfect fit and nice sound. Not to mention the best customer service I have ever experienced. I had a Prodrive exhaust on my WRX and was kind of disappointed with the quality although the sound was perfect.

exhaust

had the exhaust on a couple weeks now, throwing the APEXi intake on tomorrow. looking forward to that, and so far no problems and no complaints about the exhaust, highly satisfied. just threw yellow lamin-x on my fogs, and should be sitting on some 17's soon if everything goes according to plan.
