Hi I was wondering if anyone can compare these 2 exhausts for a ka2de s13? Specifically:
-Sound
-Loudness
-Ground Clearance

Sorry if this has been covered I haven't seen them directly compared.

Meh I like my mbse clearness is ok doesn't line up perfect hits my bumper on my s14, but sounds and looks good...

They'll sound about the same as far as tone goes, the type E will be slightly quieter though the GT will be a bit deeper. Ground clearance and fitment is slightly better on the MBSE than the GT, you can tell just by looking at the bends in the pics. A cheap exhaust is a cheap exhaust, if you're considering the GT you're better with a plain on ebay exhaust, hell ive got a 3" M2 catback with a 4.5" tip i'm looking to get rid of right now. The trouble I had was finding the MBSE Type-E in stock anywhere a few months ago. Biggest difference honestly is gonna be the stock look dual tip or the aftermarket look large single.

Dual tip installed pics? Surprisingly hard to find good pics on a hatchback.

I am also thinking about getting the MBSE Type-E with their test pipe. Here is a video of the MBSE Type-E. Sounds pretty good to me and looks kinda stock from a far.

Get a used name brand exhaust. You will be much happier that you did.

Fitment is decent but not perfect. When the exhaust free hangs, the tips sit level, but there's not as much ground clearance as I'd like. The higher I tuck it up, the more the tips slant. It's somewhat visible in the pic.

All in all, it sounds great (nice tone on my SR, not loud or obnoxious) and it's inexpensive. I'm not anal about it fitting perfectly, so I'd absolutely buy it again.

Both have a resonator in the mid pipe and a muffler out back so they sound pretty similar from what I have heard on local cars, its really up to what you are looking for style wise as the sound is not drastically different between the two.

I installed the MBSE on a friend's car. The resonator is TOO TALL (if your car is slammed).

We immediately uninstalled it. I had a custom midpipe made with a smaller resonator to get it on my car.

This is on an S14 though. I've never had the GT Type so I cannot compare.

Nice jay, thanks. I like the look of a stock style exhaust so I would probably let it hang (I'm not nearly as low as you). It looks pretty good how you have it too though.

I Have owned both, and used both on NA KA24DE.


GT single: Fairly noticeable noise at idle, LOUD in throttle, Raspy and hangs low.

MBSE type E: Very quiet at idle, Still quite loud in throttle, No rasp and sits high enough you don't need to worry about it unless the car is sitting on its nutsack.

THIS IS ON N/A KA. The sound changes with SR/ Turbo KA obviously.
Gt single looks better and has better bumper fitment IMO.
