Default Apexi WS and N1 power difference for turboed cars...

I know that there shouldnt be much of a different between the two for NA but im not sure if this is true for turboed cars. They're both 60mm but since the N1 has a better straight through design in it's muffler than the WS, does it perform that much better??? Appreciate any help guys. Thanks.

for turbo, you want the least amount of exhaust restriction, so the N1 would be best. the WS isn't straight-through ... it's chambered, I think. or it follows an "S" pattern inside the muffler. either one of those, can't remember. but yeah, N1 for turbo.

My prolem with the N1 is it being to loud. I know NA it's crazy loud, but how is it for turboed applications?

i had the N1 for awhile ... both turbo and NA, and w/ turbo, it's not that bad. all-motor? geez, too loud! But when i got the turbo kit put on, it quieted down somewhat. Granted, it's still going to be VERY noticeable even with 60 mm piping, but the tone becomes deeper and the volume becomes a little bit more muffled. it's a good exhaust but i ditched it due to tiring of the round-style muffler.

So what'd you end up getting? I like the 60mm, i dont like the muffler though.

i kept the piping but chopped off the muffler and welded on an OBX MV1015 muffler. sounds the same and performs the same.
