Tubi or AWE?

I caught some kind of bug. I want to get an exhaust ASAP. What do you guys think is the way to go? I'm not a fabspeed guy for some reason. I like the sound of AWE and Tubi, maybe cargraphic. Input is GREATLY appreciated.

From everything I have read. When I get the bug it will be AWE.

I have heard both Tubi and AWE in person and I think the AWE is best.

Can you add PSE after the fact? I have noticed that most the dealer inventories, don't have it. The dealers seem to order the same silly options, and aren't very brave.

So what's the big negative on Fabspeed?

It seems to be the name that polarizes opinions the most....

I've been bitten by that same damn bug and am tossing AWE vs Fabspeed around.....

True story at the track... In the tech line and they check this and that and one guy says "hit your throttle..." I hit it. He says "again please..." I hit it a few times in succession and say "Is everything alright?" He says "That sounds so sweet I just wanted to hear it again" and the 7 other guys who all stopped what they were doing to hear it nodded "yes". I got so many compliments at Lime Rock it was somewhat embarassing - "Man, that sounds great", "What exhaust is that?", etc.

The answer - AWE headers, cats, mufflers. It's borderline "too loud", but I can modulate it pretty easily already (went in a week ago) so I can get in and out of neighborhoods without calling too much attention.

Honestly, hear your top picks in person - video and audio clips do not come close...

how do the AWE mufflers sound by themselves without the accompanying headers and cats? is it worth it, or is AWE only worth it if you get the whole "package"?
