IMO, the techquipment tip is a slight improvement, but if you look close, you can still see the regular tailpipe recessed behind it, and then you can tell it is just a tip slid over the original one. The other advantage of changing the exhaust, of course, is the improved throaty roar over the silent stock unit.

You can get used sports exhausts on fleabay for around $400 bucks....only a bit more than a tequipment tip's retail, and it will give you a grin every time you rev that thing over 4K rpms. The tequipment tips are not cheap. Don't get me wrong, the OEM exhaust is ok sounding, but pretty tame for a sports car imo.

I revved my car today when I drove off from my Manhattan garage, and it scared a little girl and her mother who were standing behind me.

I find nothing silent about my exhaust over 3.5k RPM.
