Help me make my mind up - Exhaust choice.

[_oz]

OK story is, ive sold my do-luck exhaust as it its not suitable for big single setup as its twin piping and im over a raw sounding exhaust that is too loud

I have sourced a few single pipe cat back exhausts, one is quite cheaper than the rest but im not sure if its a good choice or not as im after a deep and more quiet note however i do not want a restrictive exhaust either

starting from cheapest and the most likely one i am going to buy:

apexi n1 pro cat back (ex-east) 765 + delivery

also from the same dealer they are selling the apexi n1 evolution for around the same price

========================================

5zigen catback from styled2race (local) $1100

The 5Zigen Proracer Aspec exhaust system is superior to most Japanese stainless steel exhaust system as it is inconel treated internally for exceptional heat tolerance, same as what they used in F1 racing and Aerospace technology. Muffler tip is made of titanium and the burnt finish is a trademark for all Aspec systems.

Diameter sizing for the exhaust system is 80mm and 105mm for the tip, which is a about 3.14inch and is suited for mid-to-high end torque and power. Comes with gaskets and exhaust bolts and nuts for the flanges.

should i avoid the apexi system and pay abit more?
will the apexi system have no issues flowing 450-500hp if i convert to a gtx35 ?
do apexi exhausts actually sound good?

cheers

apexi dual N1, dont be weak

[_oz]

And no.. i cannot find HKS systems anywhere, xspeed quoted me 1200 for a catback and i honestly cant be bothered waiting for them to order me in a ex-japan product

[_oz]

lol, if i go back to a dual it defeats the purpose of what im doing Tristan :)

[magic1]

ok, well i think nothing beats the sound of the apexi dual N1, but the quality of the apexi single is very high and the boys at access automotive are excellent to deal with.

for some reason they r using access autoworks images but im actually dealing ark design/motorsport, maybe its the same mob, different name

[magic1]

same company

Titanium sounds bombed on a 26.

[Marti]

Agreed with the above,if you can afford titanium then do it, if not the. Apex is the way to go

i have a kakimoto 3inch through de-cat with 2 mufflers.. nice quiet solid crisp tone.. not drone or back pressure issues.

[TonyStarks]

^^ Bump the kakimoto, Saw a white gtr with one, sounded steezy

[_oz]

well i bought the 5zigen system last week but havent taken any decent pics of it till today

i must say though, it is VERY quiet even with a decat which was what i was after but i didnt think it would be this quiet lol
