Seems like a good bang for the buck if what they claim is true.

Is this the 200 Vats Cat that will make everything louder?

Oof, would stay far away from that tbh

Velocityap makes high flow downpipes, have a set of them on my car and only have good things to say about them.

Well alright! Duly noted. I'm looking at the 200 vats cat upgrade, I hear they make great sound - but I don't know which to get? I don't want to replace the whole exhaust.

"Vehicle specific, Universal installation." That's a red flag to me.

It's just a weld-in cat. If I were going that route I'd get the VAP catted downpipes. It's just the downpipes, not the whole system, and it's as easily reversible as the initial installation.

I'm not sure if they make "great sound." That might be the part some have reported makes the sound raspy. Do some research here. Since I'm not looking at replacing mine, I wasn't paying a lot of attention when I read that and am likely missing details.

Exhaust note is obviously a subjective quality, but I can say I think they sound fantastic on my SVR.

You can do what I did and buy the downpipes, which are cheaper and literally plug and play (no welding). They also make an exhaust (also no welding) that doesn't mess with the catalytic converters, and gives the car a deeper sound (I've been told).

I'd recommend some youtube research to see if one or the other sticks out for you, but also know that these cars' exhausts seem very difficult to accurately record. Not sure you can go wrong either way!

Can anyone recommend which ones to get? Does anyone have a link? I'd like the car to be louder with a deeper sound, and maybe add some HP would be nice
