OBX isn't exactly what to look for if you're wanting power gains. it's mostly for show and sound. i don't know too much about them, but it looks like it's pretty cheaply made stuff. however, if u just want an axle back, then the 5zigen is nice. otherwise i'd say go with either a thermal R&D catback or a custom setup w/ N1!

Remember that the 5Zigen one comes out the right side of the car as opposed to the left side. And don't get the OBX...you are gettting what you pay for.

That thermal R&D is freaken sweeeeeeet, I want one now. I think its time to get rid of the canister look. Makes your car look even more stock.

Is that 2.5 or 3 inch SS??
Also were can I find??

Don't you want your car to look stock? two reasons i can think of - ricers wont always rev on you(unless its gutted). and the cops wont be watching you as much

Sorry I meant to say "Get rid of the canister look, and get the R&D to make it look stock"

I know what you mean constantly getting rev'd on all the time, and I think I have been lucky enough not to get hassaled by the cops ever. I hope I dont jinx my self with that said (knocking of wood)

Are you going for looks or fuction? That's not work it or especially OBX, maybe if it was Mugen. what's way too much. For 100 more you can go to a muffler shop and have them make you customized 2.25 or even 2.75 exhust. If i could that's what i would of done.
