Default Looking for Exhaust Upgrade

Im looking for an exhaust with a deeper tone (not too loud) with no drone. I need something that will last long , because we got salty road here in canada 7 month a year


Ive heard about MBRP it seems very popular here on the forum and have a very good rating.

What kind should I get

1- Xp series off-road or normal? Both are the same price.
2- Is the only difference between black and Xp series, the coating?
3- Can it void my warranty? or start some problems with my dealership?

Muffler will cost you $80ish install $40ish and if you want full exhaust piping will cost around $80ish more. Just contact your local muffler shop

I went with MBRP stainless, sounds great and is not obnoxious. I chose stainless particularly for dealing with salt in the winter for peace of mind if nothing else(though borla is the only one who uses the good stainless).

I use MBRP with a black paint coating that I sprayed on myself. With my CAI and stick shift, for some reason it is aggressive sounding. I dunno why, but mine seems a lot louder than most other people's MBRPs.
