Video: Kia Forte GT rocks a performance exhaust system

In North America, the Kia Ceed is known as Kia Forte, and comes equipped with a 1.6-liter turbocharged engine rated at 204 PS (201 hp / 150 kW) in its sportiest version. Its sound is lackluster at best, but Panda Motorworks addresses this with its recent release.

The Panda XForce is a sports exhaust system installed in a cat-back fashion. It consists of 3-inch (76mm) stainless-steel pipes, a Hot Dog muffler, and four beveled tailpipes. Those who want to be louder may opt for classic round tips and a Varex muffler.

An integrated valve enables easy volume adjustment, and you can get an idea of what it sounds like from the enclosed video. Just keep in mind that the car featured in the video had several performance upgrades installed as well and may sound slightly different from stock.
