93 civic ex Exhaust help
hey guys, I will be buying a Cat-Back exhaust soon for my 93 civic EX coupe. I'm down to 2 choices, either the Megan Racing Drift-Spec exhaust or an Apexi N1 eBay clone exhaust.
Megan racing: Mandrel bent 2.5" piping, high grade stainless steel, 1 year warranty, higher quality over all... but 400 bucks.
eBay N1 clone: not mandrel bend piping, 2.25", lower grade stainless steel, a HELL of a lot cheaper at 100 bucks. no warranty, and complaints that the welds break easily.
I want to know everyone's opinion
thanks

Overpriced Chinese junk, or cheap Chinese junk. Take your pick.
If you want the exhaust for more power, don't waste your time. You won't gain anything noticeable, other than noise. If you want it for noise/bling factor, find an exhaust shop local to you and get an exhaust custom made. Browse youtube videos until you find the exhaust note you like. Buy that muffler, and have it welded in. With an inexpensive muffler, you're probably going to spend about $150. The more expensive the muffler, the higher that'll go. You'll have the exhaust note you want, made by a local shop that can fix problems that might come up, and it'll be cheaper and better quality.
