cricechex Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 With all the hype over a lack of quad tip exhaust options over the last couple of years I am at a loss as to why there has been so little enthusiasm over the CNT quad tip exhaust: http://legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php/cnt-racing-05-09-subaru-legacy-quad-tip-catback-exhaust-166371.html Is there something about that company or setup that people on the forum know that I don't? There hasn't been any negative feed back and the tips appear to fit nicely without much risk of the plastic melting. Lastly, the price is the one of the lowest you will see for any exhaust right now.

KartRacerBoy Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 Becz it looks stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cricechex Posted August 20, 2012 Author Share Posted August 20, 2012 To each his own. Thanks for the response though. Personally, I think the Stromung looks a bit goofy because the tips are too big for the cut outs forcing it to sit a bit lower than I would prefer. Similar to the stock exhaust, in my opinion.

Spec B Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 CNT had some figment issues with their dp..not sure if that translates to slow exhaust sales. But that might be a reason... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChemicalWaste Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 I thought about that exhaust for a while. As for now the car mods are pretty much on the back burner. Hopefully when i get back to it this will still be around. I seem to miss out on the products i want my a couple months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChemicalWaste Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 It looks like the old Megan quad tip exhaust, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

W.K.S. Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 I have the Invidia v3 quad tip and it looks pretty damn good in my opinion, another bonus is that it's full 3in all the way back. I have the latest version of the CNT downpipe as well and I can say that there are no fitment issues with it. Bolted right up to the Invidia pipes.

Max Capacity Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 To each his own. I'm thinking that explains it. I like the single tips. I did like the quad tips on my 1970 GTO. 305,600miles 5/2012 ej257 short block, 8/2011 installed VF52 turbo, @20.8psi, 280whp, 300ftlbs. (SOLD). CHECK your oil, these cars use it.

Lgt07 Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 Agreed, those look so nice. As far as the CNT quad, after speaking with a few previous owners and a few vendors, census says you get what you pay for. Fitment is off and the quality just isn't there and I was told the flex piece started to fray within the first year. At $400 shipped though you can't expect much more so I'm back to Invidia, now someone buy my AutoSpeed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heedz Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 I switched to a megan quad a few months back. definitely looks more stock than the GMS I had before that and had no fitment issue with my ERZ catted dp other than the flange issue the megans were known to have but nothing agrinder couldn't fix. The japanese market has barely any of these quad tips but... they do have the ganador Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subieaction Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 I am waiting for more videos of how it sounds on our cars. They look good on ever other car but look cheap on the lgt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssbtech Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 Quads look kind of stuffed in those openings. And my $0.39 hogzaust sounds just as good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm debating between Megan and Invidia because they seem to run a bit cheaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cricechex Posted August 26, 2012 Author Share Posted August 26, 2012 I am waiting for more videos of how it sounds on our cars. They look good on ever other car but look cheap on the lgt. I have also been waiting for a while to hear some better sound clips. I have pm'd several people who purchased it and none have had any serious issues with it. Also, everyone has said it sounds pretty good without drone. With the current pricing I finally decided to purchase it yesterday. I'll try to post some pics of the install and most importantly a good sound clip or two after I'm done. It will most likely be a few weeks before I have it installed though. I have been collecting parts over the last two years and finally have everything I need to get tuned properly without needing future revisions, I hope.....
