V6 Flowmaster ?? or Borla or Magnaflow

I am reading several posts. What is the best option for my V6 RS? I want the dual exhaust, from both sides of the engine, 30 series? dont want it raspy, why do some say to NOT do it, and some say to do it? what is best for the V6? I know who will install it, here in Raleigh, a muffler shop, just want to get ideas from people who have it and love the sound. for a V6 is that 25 HP increase? or not that much? Thanks!!! (new to Camero, 2013 RS)

The car's are identical excluding some minor trim and badges and I believe the grills are different too. Both have the Boxter flat 4 and are RWD. According to Top Gear Subaru is only allowed to make BRZ for every 4 FRS though.

I'm sorry but whoever told you that you are going to gain 25 HP from a Exhaust is wrong. At best from a cat back you will gain about 5. With that being said In my opinion the best exhaust for the V6 is the MRT V2. Since this area is very subjective I recommend you go into this thread with a nice pair of headphones and listen away. Remember since you have a 13 you have the LFX motor and because of that anything you read that says they have Headers does not apply to you. You ask someone else what they think and you will get a different answer. Personally I am not a fan of the Dual mode on the V6 it just doesn't sound right in my book.

another big difference is one has HID headlights, and the other is regular halogen. don't remember which one though.

ohhhh that's a big difference in my book. But if the Subaru doesn't have HIDs while the FRS does (could be the other way around) It's probably pretty simple to retrofit them.
