please delete your post and pm me for more info. you will get flammed to death, as a exhaust tip does absolutely nothing. NOTHING at all. it only changes the tip's appearance. if you want a change in sound, upgrade your muffler and you'll be good.

Ohh yeah, the way I see it is you just rip off the old stock exhaust and you can weld the new pipes right on. You might need to bend some of them so I would reccomend getting a hammer, some glue, some aluminium foil, and a tooth pick. Thats all you really need to build a good exhaust system.

just get an axleback (muffler), not one of those universal ones (like at pepboys/ebay), but one made for your car, of good quality.

I just picked up my exaust today and my god the freeking dyamiter(sp?) of the tip is like 100mm. Its gona sound so freeking loud... i was hoping for a more mello and deep tone but i guess im have to do with a loud as heck wake the dead exaust. When i bought it from the shop i thought the tip was like 70mm but now i know.

Allso any one know of a good brand/web site that would have a header with downpipe and cat that i could buy for an ex? i have an lx right now and im converting the exasut system over to ex. I will buy used but.... i need a good quality one.

100mm is nothing. I think the Apexi GT Spec is 130mm
