The car looks awesome but won't the much bigger tyre's total change the playful nature of the car?

Wow, that looks good. And that exhaust is beautiful too! I like the blue brakes against the white paint.
 
Unlike you, I'm cool! I drive fast late at night when I should be sleeping! But you wouldn't understand...

Their exhaust setups are so freaking nice to look at. I wish they shared a video so we can hear how it sounds.

Those Yokohama tires are really grippy so they'd affect the car in that way but I don't think they'd hurt how the car handles.

Yes, with stock power this car would be difficult to get sideways due to the added grip. That being said, when you are shooting for the fastest lap times, being sideways is obviously not the goal. Steering feel would also be significantly less "playful" due to the added grip/width/weight. Different kind of fun I guess.

I dont want to be a downer but look at the pipe routing on that exhaust. Its nice and straight, then slams into a wall, turns backwards, then turns back at a hard angle to enter the mufflers. It may sound good and look nice with the car on the ground but it certainly isnt doing the car any favors creating more free flowing exhaust. That is why most aftermarket companies mount the mufflers deeper under the car and then just extend the tips to the exit, not try to shove the entire mufflers under the bumper. Maybe im wrong here but with 1 glance I looked at that under car pic and thought "well that wont work very well".

That design provides needed space beneath the rear of the car for 007 modifications to your GR86. Options are: smoke screen tank, tire-spikes, little bomblets, or oil-slick spray. Oh, and a dollar bill shooter to make it rain at the strip joints.

The difference in baffles/muffler design compared to OEM is going to change fluid dynamics far more than the shape of curves in the pipe. But in either case, unless the restrictions in the catback are flow limiting compared to the rest of the system it doesn't matter anyway. This is why catbacks rarely add a meaningful increase in power.

Agreed. For someone who plans on only a catback or minimal other mods it wont matter. People going catless and making more power with tuning and\or forced induction will likely see a flow restriction from those hard 90 degree bends.

There's no way to know if it would provide meaningful restriction without knowing several other mathematical variables, even in the setting of FI. Regardless, the overwhelming majority of these cars are going to stay naturally aspirated.

Unless the muffler design is substantially restrictive (unlikely) it will almost certainly be more free flowing. And with the exception of a very small number of tuners going FI and seeking to max hp gains, it's highly unlikely to be meaningfully better or worse compared to other aftermarket designs.

I assume some prefer the cleaner look compared to something like ARK where the mufflers are visible from behind the car. Those that do could almost certainly go with something like this without imposing power limitations even if catless/tuned, despite someone's opinion that it "looks like it won't work well."
