TC Catback Exhaust Question

I have some confusion on what cat back systems work on the 08-09 TC cars. Will the SC cat back systems work or are the exhaust systems being constructed specifically for the TC cars (backpressure, sound, anything different on the mounting/hanging...)? Doesn't seem like there is much out there and what is out there is $800+.

Thanks,
Jas

hahn is like 600, and agencey power is 700, janety racing has two kits. the side pipe kit is only 200, or get a mandrelbentexhaust.com kit and you will spend like 400 and have the muffler you want...

X2 that is the only difference we know of also... Fairly simple to modify.

I visited Jannetty's on a trip to CT and found them to be great guys . Ted (the owner) took about an hour out of his day to show us the shop and dyno building along with a SS/SC turbo conversion. I really doubt Ted would put his name on anything thats junk, i'm sure it will be a quality exhaust.

If its power your after dont bother with a catback. Go with a downpipe. Our stock catback flows very well. You wont see very much of a gain at all by upgrading. maybe 3-5HP. Downpipe not only upgrades the sound, but will improve your power by around 10-15 WHP. Its cheaper as well. Goodluck.
