Need recommandation on exhaust

I have GTC rear diffuser on my FD, and i want to replace a better exhaust on it. What do you guys think which exhaust will fit ? i know some of the exhaust will not fit because of the tailpipe is not in the right direction and size. I m think about the exhaust which has some curve with it.

thx for suggestion.

thx Sindy

Do you have the Mazdaspeed GT-C rear bumper add-on, or a full-fledged diffuser (MS only ames one that fits their R-spec bumper)?

For angled exhausts, I would say HKS carbon ti if you want to be quiet, or Apex gt-spec if you want to go loud.
RE-A makes an exhaust w/the tip angled downward...

From the pictures i've seen, the HKS carbon Ti is an angled exhaust, as are most if not all cannister style exhausts. Its not as angled as a few exhuasts are such as the n1 or jic bullet but is still angled and will look great with your diffuser.

IMO, you should probably look into the HKS carbon Ti, mainly because it sounds great, t'll look even better with your car, and isnt too loud which is a huge plus for cali.

Thx ROTORhead93, thx for your response. Um.... i like the HKS carbon Ti , but i m more concern about the exhaust tip. I afraid it will not fit into the diffuser.

Does any one have picture of HKS carbon Ti installed on her/his FD ???

thx sin

I have the apex N1 on my FD. I like it has a good sound to it and seems to have good flow.

Here's what the Mazdaspeed diffuser looks like...






And w/ the Mazdaspeed rear skirts, it's a LOT tighter...





As for the HKS Carbon Ti, it most definitely is an angled exhaust. I have it on my car. Here's how it looks (not my car tho):



As for the comments about it not being loud, if you have a cat, you're good. If you have a MP like me, it's VERY VERY LOUD. Not deafening or obnoxious like Apexi N1 duals (IMO), but it has a VERY loud drone...that you always hear. But I gotta say, it sounds so incredibly awesome at WOT...
