Default Which Exhaust for newage

Hi, am after reccomendations of which exhaust to buy, I have a GB270 (newage)...and am after slightly louder than the Prodrive thats fitted and also possibly a slight power gain.

Have been looking at the:
Ninja 2
Vortex afterburner
Blitz Nur spec R

which of these is best or anything else?

Thanks

i went for the ninja 2 and took out the center resonator on my 06 sti and it sounds awsome, but if i were to buy another back box i would buy the afterburner, there even louder mate.

I have a custom made one from MIJ Performance in Walsall on my o4 WRX. You can have just what you want and it wasn't mega bucks.

Had a vortex on my 05 WRX- it sounded good at low revs but got irritating at constant high speed- sort of howled.

Ditched it for a Miltek 3" system as part of Powerstation 270 conversion. For my money sounded excellent- loudest at tickover, bearable at full chat. makes you drive under bridges with the windows open! Downside? £££

Very nice car mate, sounds amazing!!

Thanks for all comments, dunno whether to wait now until the warranty is up and get the whole system done then as part of a performance upgrade
