Default EXHAUSTS, EXHAUSTS, EXHAUSTS . . . . . but jesus, which one?!

well im planning to put on an exhaust system soon, and quite frankly i dont know which one to get . . . .

I was lookin at N1 series and the WS series from Apex, and the N1 looks like its built for non N/A cars, like turbos where as the WS looks like its for cars with bolt on mods . . . .

Then I've checked out the Thermal Stealth and they look great too . . . I really wanna put price over a ricy sound, but still . . . does the Stealth still sound like its there? and the WS how quite is it? just some questions any advice would help thanks

do you want maximum gains or a balance between power and it being quiet?

thermal is cheap, looks good, sounds good, and feels like it gave me a nice gain

well i definately want power gains, and i dont want it to be too quiet, i definately want it to be heard, but i just want something that has a nice sound, all there is around here are straight pipes and mufflers, i want something different, noticeable . . . . i've heard thermal is the way to go

for the most power gains go with an N1

thermal on the other hand is a very good exhaust, sounds great, and looks low profile with a nice power increase.

my suggestion: GReddy. Good gains, and the best sound. It will be heard at WOT, yet not loud when you dont want it to be.

Thermal all the way. I felt some noteworthy gains after installing my Stealth. On a side note, the name stealth has almost nothing to do with the sound..haha, just the looks. The thing is deep and mean sounding at WOT. It doesnt look all huge like the N1. Sure as hell doesnt sound ricey at all. But N1 or Stealth all the way

the rattle you hear is a slightly loose flywheel cover.
