Ive sent a PM already and tried to search the forums.. but i'm not sure what to get from a price point.. Aluminized steel, but what are the performance, sound, durability, visual for the cheapest one?
I understand the non-polish and polished.. the muffler will be shinier right? But if it's Carbon Fiber.. why would you want polished?? since the muffler is carbon fiber and all the tips are the same.. does it mean it's polished further down etc.. where no one looks at?

I have the Greddy Ti-C w/o silencers and Ichiba Y-Pipe great combo but the car is obnoxiously loud. After couple weeks of regular driving I got used to the sound and I don't know if its me or what but it sounded better now than the first time I installed it. I got both for under 1k.

man greddy belongs on an Evo period
it conflicts with the luxury sport nature of the G, unlike FI

Another question, can the extra HP gains from FI actually be felt? This is my first car and i'm a n00b when it comes to all these modding... (which is why i've been asking so many questions)
Originally I wasn't planning on doing any performance HP mods because I'm saving up for my apartment and didn't want to spend big $$ on small gains.. but this modding bug is addictive... Also i didnt understand why people would spend thousands of dollars just to improve sound from the exhaust.. but now.. i do.. sigh

I always tell anyone, simple bolt ons aren't going to be "felt" according to the butt dyno, but hey this is coming from a guy that used to have a S/C E46 M3 . It's mostly for sound, but yes, exhaust components wil yield the most power out of any bolt on mods for the 37.
