Default RSX w/ Exhausts

Ok guys and gals - whom of you has an ehaust on your RSX. What size and from who? What was the price - a link would suffice if you don't want to go into exceptional detail. Have any of you got a dyno plot after fitting it vs standard? Thanks.

Buddyclub Racing Spec 3 exhaust

Buddyclub claims they have about 10-12hp gains in the DC-5R so i think you 'll atleast see an 8-10hp gains.

Kakimoto will have the superlight weight stainless steel exhaust GT1.OZ available for DC5 soon.

It should look similar to the picture below. (The one in the picture is for WRX)

Has anyone got an Apexi N1 muffler?

I'm after an afternmarket exhaust with the N1 muffler, prefer it to be lighter than the original exhaust.

I think SPOON's will perform very well with a great tone. The Buddy Club Racing Spec III will be sweet too for all the weight saved.

What are the costs/disadvantages of say a Buddy Club exhaust in comparison to a Comptech. I live in canada as well. Do some companies use thinner walls in construction and more prone to damage or weather damage?

To me, majority of people are concerned with sound and looks, as well as cost and weight.

has anyone heard the racing spec III? the thinnner tubing and small muffler lead me to believe that it is going to be even louder than an apex n1. if anyone has heard it, shed some light.
