I have a Black 95 VTEC Prelude, I am planning on purchasing an exhaust. I am between the A'pexi N1 and the Tanabe Super Racing Medalion. I am just wonder in the difference in noise? performance? and if in the future I turbo my car will the exhaust still be sufficiant? I have done most of the research myself to narrow it down to these two exhausts, but your advise is greatly needed and wanted.
Feel free to give me a name of another exhaust you feel preformes better, compared to these two.

Thank you guys for helping me out.

 

I'd get Apex-i N1, I was just watching a video today of a couple of 5th gen running around on the freeway the exhaust system. Sounds extremely good. I have a Mugen system and if mugen wasn't in existance I would have got an Apex-i N1.
here the video.

even though its and 5th gen i think it would sound the same on a 4th gen.

 

Thank you this was VERY helpfull. By the way, how does your Mugen sound? and how much can I ask did you buy it for?

 

The cat-back is great, quality of the product is unmatched. When I first got the system the piping was silver, now it has turned into a bronze color. Preformance wise, I'm sure I got some preformace out of it, but my sense aren't that kean to notice. As far as sound goes it's great after you've been driving around for about 5 miles, (to get the exhaust gases really hot. for some reason i noticed that you have to drive around for 5 miles or so to get the full sound capabilities) The sound is well I've got a video for that too.

Oh not for sell I just broke up with my g/f so I'm vack into the modding thing. Now I got to complete the system and throw another $1000 down the drain and get the Mugen headers.

Oh and the diameter of stock piping on a 5th gen is 1.50" or 1.75" ) can't remember. The mugen piping is 2.25". keep in mind that if you going n/a you don't want to got above 2.50" for exhaust piping.
