WHich is quieter, Apexi ws, ws 2, or rsr exmag?
I really want a quiet system, i am tired of the evo2 and got 3 tickets for it already. Would ws2 bring much or any attention at wot?

all 3 you listed are VERY quiet! The rsr ex mag would probably bring the least attention appearance wise since its black with a polished tip. As for sound, I have the ws2 and it is barely louder than my stock jdm itr axle back system. At WOT, you'll hear intake screaming louder more than anything....

my friend found a skunk2 catback $100 at a junkyard and he put it on his rsx-s w/ race headers, intake and it was pretty deep sound. so im assuming with your setup it should be pretty loud.

That setup and quiet will be worlds apart. It will be about one notch under open header, lol.

I can for sure tell you that Magnaflow cat-backs are not the quietest; they're deep yes, but not quiet. Most are circle/canister type mufflers which is great for flow but not so great for noise. A 5x8 14" or 18" oval would be quieter; I may just fab up an oval axle using either that Vibrant/ES Oval muffler; i already have decent tubing from the cat and a decent magnaflow resonator. Who knows, that full SS RSR ex-mag looks pretty nice and I may spring for that.

quieter would be ex-mag, but i'd take apexi, better name better look imo. the new ex-mag is all chrome, personally i like black muffler for stealth look.

Where do you live cuz the evo 2 in Cali will pass the db test as long as you have a cat. I should know I had ref for it. Thats only if you live in cali
