Default Best catback

I'm planning to change my catback for my b16, i'm planning to put a custom mandrel bent in 2.25'' with a 22'' resonator with a magnaflow muffler or a apexi WS2. What would be the best ? would it be better to pay more for the ws2 then the custom one ... Any suggestion would be appreciate. I want something that will have a great sound and that will be silent. Thanks

Depends what you want really, both are pretty close as far as how much it'll make power wise.

Greddy sp2 with a good cat and Good Header

At certain rpm ranges the drone of the exhaust is undetectable, even in the car.
There are several sweet spots... the sweet spots directly relate to where and how long the resignator is

learn to stay within those bands and you might seem unnoticeable to local law enforcement

I plan on chopping my Greddy setup and running an es tuning 2.5inch muffler on the Greddy piping with resignator and cat to increase back pressure and bunch the exhaust pulses closer together for improved efficiency as a DD

Kteller weld up exhuast kit, magnaflow muffler and a magna flow resonator. My car is really quiet, not much louder than stock, and with a small 3" tailpipe tip, it almost looks stock.
