Default HKS or A'pexi exhaust?

I am about to get an exhaust for my new '98 hatch and was considering the A'pexi N1 or the HKS Hiper. I know that a bunch of people here have the N1 but I was wondering if anyone had experience with the HKS system. Thanks guys.

I have no experience with the HKS, but my friends N1 is nice and it fit great.

I was planning on dropping it with Tein STechs and since the HB piping on the N1 goes under the LCA instead of over it, I was a little worried about it maybe scraping in some places....Any opinions?

I just put the apexi n1 on my EG and i'am lowered..my opinion if you get the n1 you will love it...but you will scrape every once in a while but not if your driving slow..just drive slow...like you should be anyway...buy the N1 i got mine from nolimitmotorsports for 475.00 shipped to my door and they have great service

both exhaust systems are excellent in quality and performance. the only difference is the look of the muffler and it's positioning.

I may be wrong but i heard there was some difference in piping size. Also the N1 piping is black coated while the Hiper isn't I think.

HKS apparently sounds better at WOT and it sits N1 style just like the apex' exept that the angle is not as agressive thus, the canister of the HKS does not scrape the ground as much as the apex'
apex' N1
HKS ('cose is wot im getting )
