Buy which one you think is nicer looking.

That's the main difference.

Personally, I like the look of the TypeOne better. The tip is 3.5" inches, which is 1/2" more than stock so it's not ricey and it doesn't attract attention. I don't like the look of the Spoon N1 too much. The tip is 2.5" and it reminds me of a garden hose. If I was into the N1 sound, I would have kept my TypeOne. According to R&D, the Spoon N1 is louder than the TypeOne.

BlueR is selling the muffler section and he's a very reliable guy. He bought something from me and I had no worries sending it to him even before I received payment. Just buy a TypeOne b-pipe to go along with it to get the full effect. I got 6whp and 4wtq just by bolting on the TypeOne catback. Good luck with your decision.

Does the TypeONE axle-back angle or is it just straight? Also, if anyone has any sound clips of both of them, that'd be nice

Thanks. Does it look good mounted on the car? Anyone got pics? I haven't seen the typeONE mounted onto the car before, but i like the way the spoon n1 looks. Nothing bad you can say about it, except it isn't *bling bling*.

I thought it looked very sexy when it was on my car. Here's pics of the c-speed car with the TypeOne exhaust.

If you think about it, I only really need the extra power at the track. Then I'll just run open header. For the street any real free flowing exhaust is gonna be loud and if your like me, your going to get in trouble sooner or later because I like too play. So for the street I think these supposed bottlenecks are fine.

Thats my plan. Just drop the cat at the track, 5 bolts and its gone. You don't even have to take off any of the cat back. Sure you get a code, but who cares.

I like both, both have Quality, Although I prefer the Spoon as I like the way it sits under the bumper and has a small 2.5" Stock looking tip.

PS Anyone interested in A T1R Bpipe and Spoon N1 Combo Im me

Shameless post whoring

I would have loved to keep the TypeOne exhaust and I would have kept it if I didn't drive my car everyday and I didn't do so much long driving.
