Lets Talk Catback Exhausts...

An aftermarket catback exhaust is a performance exhaust system that replaces the section of the exhaust pipe that runs from the catalytic converter to the muffler. It is designed to improve the performance of a vehicle by reducing exhaust backpressure and increasing the flow of exhaust gases by reducing muffling.

There are several potential benefits to adding an aftermarket catback exhaust to a GR86. One benefit is that it can have a slight improvement the power and torque output of the engine. By reducing exhaust backpressure, an aftermarket catback exhaust allows the engine to exhale more easily, which can help to increase horsepower and torque. This can make the GR86 feel more responsive and accelerate more quickly.

Another benefit of an aftermarket catback exhaust on the GR86 is that it can improve the sound of the vehicle. Many aftermarket exhaust systems have a more aggressive or sporty sound than the stock exhaust, which can give the GR86 a more exciting and enjoyable driving experience. LET IT BE HEARD!

Overall, adding an aftermarket catback exhaust to a GR86 can be a good idea if you are looking to improve the performance and sound of your vehicle, and/or if you want to give it a more aggressive and sporty appearance. 

Keep in mind that an aftermarket exhaust may not be suitable for everyone especially if you go with a loud exhaust and drive long distances. Many aftermarket exhaust manufacturers distinguish loudness by offering a street or race version of their system so it best to do some research with videos and reviews to dial in the right noise level you are looking to achieve.
