be more specific ... where do you want the largest power gain? ... bottom end? mid range? top end?
... usually you would go with a smaller exhaust diameter (more backpressure) for bottom end increase, and a larger diameter, more free flowing exhaust, for more high rpm power ...

... you need to state your power goals, as well as your other engine components in order for people to give you accurate help

... also, if your concerned about the look of the exhaust, post in the appearance thread

its all about piping size and how the flow of your exhaust is...

basically, its your preference to what exhaust you should get...but if you dont mind a loud exhaust, the spoon N1 is a great exhaust...

spoon N1 is an amazing exhaust ... if you can afford it ... sounds great, and not loud at all with a resonator

In one the honda tuning issues on a d16 they found the biggest over gain in power along with good sound quality in 3" exhaust systems. seemed weird to me but i wont argue with the dyno

I have the Greddy SP2 on my 93 CX Hatch with a JDM B18C Sir-G motor, Comptech 4-2-1 Header, and Magnaflow cata-converter. It's really loud when you hit high RPM. Not the anoying sound but that deep agreesive move out of my way sound.

APEXi WS2 is quiet and deep, but hangs lot

Spoon N1 Sounds amazing, but looks goofy and is expensive, but i love it.

those are my fav. 2 exhaust tho :-D
