was up guys....need some of your knowledge about the APEXi World Sport Exhaust for my 97 base...how does it sound?? is it worth the money?? does it actually help?? any and all input will be appriciated! thanx!

 

I'm looking at the 80mm World Sport 2 exhaust right now for my turbo Prelude. From what I've read, they are very quiet, sound good, and perform well. I can't speak from any first hand experience though.

I have no experience w/ teh WS on a Prelude, but I had one on my 91 Civic Si & it was awesome, and a friend has it on his 2000 Si & it again sounds awesome. It is about as low-profile as you can get w/ an off the shelf catback, and it has a nice mellow tone. I'm sure the WS for the Prelude is similar. In my experience, fit & finish was great, and quality is definately there w/ Apex'i exhausts (I've had 3 different Apex'i systems).

 

Amazing pretty much sums this exhuast up......i have the World Sport 2 on my 95 Si........overall it is a quiet exhaust but gives a good tone when needed......usually around 3000-3500 is when you can hear it the most.......i remember before buying it i researched FOREVER to find the perfect cat back.......and this one is perfect.....not loud but still holds a great tone. good luck~!

 

I have the WS on a 5g prelude. Looks nice and sounds almost stock at idle and below 3K

 

thanx for all da input so far guys... i appriciate it!

 

Yeah the Apexi WS is a very quiet Exhaust. It has just a mild note even with my hi-flo cat. The only complaint I have is that the piping hangs SUPER low.

 

i've hear of the APEX world series in a type-R its very quiet sounds great IMO good performance gains too

 

looks and sounds good on my lude

 

same here i've had mine on my lude for 2 years and it's great. the only thing is i think the can is too big and shiny but thats the only bad part for me at least. def not a farty exhaust and the power gains are decent

 

I have it. I love it, got it used for $240.

sounds really good inside and out of the car

 

just ordered my apex'i WS2 catback, can't wait to put 'er on!

 

where do i get the best deal on the apexi WS2, i searched ebay with not much luck on a good prices apexi? thanks in advance

Apexi WS2 is what a factory sport car exhaust should be right out the box IMO.

 

great exhaust, i thought it was a little timid at first.
but i love it

it hang quite low when i first had it installed, it knicked the road a few times and all the gaskets needed replacing.

So make sure who ever installs it tucks it in right

lost a bit of high rpm pull but the increase in midrange power is perfect for the city

 

Yeah dude i have a 97 lude as well and that exhaust is pimp sounds great like everyone else has said sooo i'd say get it

 

whats a good exhaust system that doesnt hang too far down on the 5th gen? im probably gonna start a project on a 5th now after i sell the 4th.... i wanna slam the car pretty low but i dont want a syystem thats gonna scratch on everything.

do you have a picture of the WS2 on your 4th gen ... i used to have the original WS and LOVED it but it got jacked ... been thinking about getting the WS2 but it looks alittle different ... so i would like to see a picture

 

^^i think the only difference between ws and ws2 is a cut/rolled tip

I have the Apexi WS and when i first installed it, i noticed the piping hanging too low so i went to a muffler shop and had them readjust the hangers to a different position and now my car does not scrape anywhere. I am dropped on TEIN S-Tech Springs and i have no issues with clearance what so ever.

Good LUCK

 

how did they "re-adjust" the hangers ?

 

They bend the hangers so the piping sit higher. I just did it on mine. That is the only way to fix the issue. It works out pretty good.

email c2autospl@yahoo.com they can hook you up with a VERY good deal.

 

my friend has the APex ws as well on her 01 lude. Looks nice and its quiet

 

i'm also considering getting the apex ws.. but the thing is i've just lowered my car with some coils bout 1 finger gap all around and from reading this thread you guys say that it hangs pretty low... i don't plan on raising it any higher and really don't plan on scraping up the exhaust. i would like total cleareance so is there another way to fix this problem or a different option. how about the apex n1, does that hang lower than the ws.. But n1s are so loud
