Twin loop is quiet with a moderately sized tip. The megan one will be louder with a big tip. It's up to you, you have two completely different mufflers tho.

that twin loop is a replica of the famous Mugen twin loop so I would guess alot people here would prefer it over the megan N1.

Those were both just mufflers. If you're going to get anything get a full catback. A muffler won't do anything but make noise.

Contact KTeller if you already have the muffler and tell him you need a 2.5" exhaust for your car, minus the muffler.

Do you plan on going turbo or staying NA?

If you're planning on going turbo I'd get the straight-thru N1 style. If you're staying NA I'd get the twin loop.
