Default Exhaust Opinions Needed

So I'm thinking about getting exhaust and I want something quiet. I've been debating between Apexi World Sport or Greddy SP2. Looks wise they are pretty much the same and the sound clips that I've heard were ok but it's not the same as in person. Which one sounds better and quality wise what would be better. I haven't heard really any negatives toward either set-ups. One thing is the price, the Apexi is a good $150-$170 less. So what do you guys have to say, thanks H-T!

does RS*R make an exhaust system for the ep3? I love their exhaust, good numbers, stock looking, quiet.

I am not a fan of the world sport exhausts. Three guys in my club have that exhaust and its to rhaspy to me.

That's funny that you mention RS*R haha, that was the first place I looked. I had a buddy with the Ex-mag on his '00 Si and I loved it. They don't but I wish they did.

So, by raspy do you mean like that tin canny sound or is it kinda like Bimmer raspy if you know what I mean? That's exactly what I'm trying to get away from; that tin canny sound.

tin can. I have two BMW's and they sound great. There exhausts to me have a tinny sound. Couple other friends of mine agree and keep trying to convince those guys to swap exhausts. But everyone is titled to their own opinion and they like their exhausts. even though two of the guys are brothers and I know the one just got one to match the other lol

Haha nice, 2 peas in a pod eh? So that's cool I guess SP2 would be cleaner sounding. My exhaust right now is 2.25in piping with a cherrybomb resonator and the stock muffler. People tell me it sounds sick and I like it to but only from the outside of the car haha, when I'm driving it just sounds too raspy tinn canny, and it got better with the resonator but not completely cleaned up.

The only WS2 I've heard was on a SOHC turbo Civic. And it was quiet as f.u.ck.
