I've always enjoyed my Thermal mufflers with custom piping. Good sound and quality.

I've got an 80mm (about 3.15") Apex'i WS2 and I like it pretty well. It has an extremely deep tone because of the size of the canister, I actually made a silencer because the low frequency bass sounds were starting to drive me crazy. It sounds a little louder/deeper than stock with the silencer in and didn't lose much power, then I just take the silencer out when I need to.

didnt want to start a new thread si i figured i'd ask here

i'm in the final stages of gethering parts for my LS turbo setup. and wondering about exhaust.

i will be running a 2.5" DP > 3" cat > 3" ex. how loud would a non muffled exhaust be? a friend of mine has a 1.8t jetta and he has no mufflers and it sounds great and isnt loud at all. unfortunatley i dont know anyone with a boosted honda so i have zero clue how it would sound.

Without a muffler it will sound like crap. I helped build an exhaust system for an LS turbo and used a 2.5 dp and went through a cat to a 3" cat back, from there we put in a 18" resonator and an apexi N1 muffler. Would highly recomend that, sounds good, no raspy crap at all.
