Nitto midpipe?

How does this work exactly? do i still need a full axle back exhaust for this or just straight pipe and a fancy tip?

Bolts up to the end of the header then goes all the way back to where an "axle-back" system would start , so yes you still need a "axle-back" of choice .

except for the fact that you're running cat-less and it can smell bad.. i have to say that the nitto mid-pipe is the only thing that really improves the exhaust note on this car. its hard to make a 4cyl 1.5L sound deep without sounding tinny/raspy/ricey.. this is the only thing that does it, and only because it doesn't actually increase the volume at all. it just makes it deeper.

1.) Lowering Springs > (which will be done hopefully by next week and staypuft will make it happen)
2.) Air Intake> still havn't decided yet if im gonna go CAI or just a short ram.
3.) Nitto MId pipe
4.) Axle Back Exhaust
5.) Better Shocks> (hopefully by this time my stock shocks aren't screwd up yet because of lowering.

I like the drop on the tein s-tech springs that i have on my sedan, i would suggest them. Air intake if you going for a CAI I would stick to the TRD, I had it on my car for 1 year already and no problems and good addition to the car.

yeha i heard s-techs are not bad but i think im gonna try DF 210's since someone is selling to me for 100 shipped just arranging some payment methods with him. as far as intake i dont think ima go CAI annymore something liek the afe's or blitz short ram will be ideal for me for now. Unless i get a good price on a set of used TRD CAI tehn i might jsut give it a try.

I'll try to get a sound clip soon then

I had the AFE intake , which I love hows it looks, but I had a problem with the maf housing , then I change it to AEM CAI and am really happy with the result.

the aem doesn't look as good as the AFE, but it sounds a lot better during wot ....I believe, the TRD CAI is a rebrand AEM ... I may be wrong tho

so there is no cat in the midpipe? does that mean if you do a full exhaust: header, midpipe, and rear section, that you have no cats?

^ yup, no cats whatsoever. Not my ideal setup at all - I'd have piping custom made with the stock cat in place.

areithan1980, for the air intake, I'd highly recommend the Fujita F5. I had the AFE short ram and the Blitz short ram intakes before, and the Fujita just works soo much better for me. Btw, where on the north side do you live? Starting at the beginning of September, I'm going to be up by Loyola, so you should hit me up sometime.
