Hello, I have a 2023 Integra A spec and wanted to start doing mods. I’m between the Remark, AWE touring, or AWE track exhausts. I want a noticeably louder exhaust than stock and want to be able to hear the burbles. I am also stuck on whether I should get the TSP down pipe or the PLM down pipe. Any thoughts?

*Sorry in advance if I put this in the wrong thread, I’m new to the forums*

Definitely wrong forum haha. You're in the exterior section.

We can get you taken care of with either exhaust, both in stock. Remark build quality and material is very good. AWE tips look great and sound good too.

Volume, tone, and drone are some of the key elements to look at when choosing a new exhaust system. It is important to understand that the majority of burbles and pop heavy exhaust sounds made popular on the internet are created using tuning and additional decongestion beyond a cat-back exhaust.

Volume: Any AWE system is going to increase the volume level of your vehicle. For the Track Edition there is a mid-pipe resonator combined with a straight through approach, that is so rowdy it comes with a warning on our website. It can be exceptionally good at creating the pops and crackles, but is often too much for daily driving.

Tone & Drone: We strive to create and tune our systems to achieve specific sound profiles here at AWE. The Touring Edition offers a deep and refined tone by utilizing a 180 Technology® resonator in combination with a mid-pipe resonator to eliminate harmful drone frequencies while accentuating tones to improve drivability without sacrificing on power or sound quality.

We recommend that users seeking burbles and pops who are also planning on additional modifications (downpipes, tunes, etc) choose a Touring Edition. The combination usually results in a hard to replicate, fantastic sound profile.

As always, if you have any detailed or technical questions you can PM or reach out to us right this way.

Went through similar research... for Downpipe I was between TSP or RV6. TSP's Downpipe was engineered by PRL iirc, but PRL got out of the Downpipe business or something. I went with the rv6 to match brands with my suspension components.

For exhaust, from watching videos i was between thermal r&d 2022+ si exhaust and the PRL n1 exhaust. Went with PRL.

Car is honestly louder than I wanted, will see if I get used to it Lol. But yep if you upgrade the Downpipe, might as well get a 3in front pipe to match the 3in exhaust.

TSP's downpipe has a quality cat that won't throw a code or leave you smelling like grandpa's old camaro.
