I picked up the AWE touring exhaust for the FK8 type r about 8 months ago and I have been really happy with it. AWE was a great company to work with. The sound is deep and not raspy, and it only really gets loud in the upper RPM's so it is great for daily use. I was originally going to go with the slightly cheaper HKS exaust which is quieter, but I'm super happy I went with the AWE. This exhaust fixes the main issue with this great car, it is just way too quiet from the factory!
