Default Apex'i World Sport exhaust... You like? You have? You have pics?

This a good exhaust system??? I want it to sound good. I hear when you step on it the thing starts flipping out. But on normal driving its just nice and quiet.

Also will there be a noticeable gain of "eemph" ???? Like any possible notice of any more "spritleyness" in the car?

whats the ballpark Hp gain? 2-4 hp? Maybe 5?

I have one on my GSR and love it. Nice and quiet until you romp the gas, otherwise puts out a nice low tone, not ricey sounding at all. Nearly as quiet as stock in the low rpm's except for the beautiful low tone. On the downside though, the muffler is a chambered design, not the design you want from a performance standpoint, although I'm sure its an improvement over stock in that area. It's the reason its so quiet, but it wont flow as well as a straight through design, particularly in the high rpm's. So I guess it depends on what your priority is, a little peace and quiet while you drive or, in a simple I/H/E setup, an extra 1-3 peak HP up top while you wake up the neighborhood.

i wouldn't say exhaust systems don't make much power. i dynoed before and after i installed my buddy club spec 3. i gained 4.7 hp everywhere with the buddy club exhaust, and then i pulled out the silencer and made 10.5hp/ 4.5tq "UP TOP"

you just need to prioritize what you want. power/loud or eeeeh/quiet.

What other mods do you have? I didn't say that exhausts don't make much power. I said that a chambered muffler exhaust wont make AS MUCH power as a straight through muffler exhaust.

Not the best pics but...



I love it. The only thing is the muffler rattles on something and I haven't had a chance to check it out. Anyone else have this problem? I think it can be fixed by bending the hanger hooks a little.

thats your exhaust rubbing on your GAS TANK. this is a common problem with this exhaust on 93-95 Coupes. Apexi was cheap and wanted it to span 2 car generations, thats why it 'fits' 96-98 4doors also. this is precisely why i sold this garbage exhaust, and will never buy another apexi product. you'll have to have the pipe bent to get it fixed. buy a RSR Exhaust, theyre cheaper, and better. http://www.turboimport.com or http://www.alternativemotoring.com

I have the racing sport which is basically the same thing......I absolutely love it, the only reason I would ever switch exausts would be for something with larger diameter piping and a straight through muffler for turbo.

I had no cat at the time I put the WS on, it helped a lot with the droning. Other than that, typical aftermarket exhasut But nice sound to it.
OH, and room for a rear stabi bar UNLIKE the Dunk exhaust I had before.

i dont have one, but i know a car that does, and i like it a lot. It isnt too loud (compared to my Apexi N1) but it does have a niice grumble to it and a great sound when hard on the throttle.

I almost bought one. Not the best power making exhausts on the market, thats what turned me off about them. But the quality is awesome, sound is perfect. If you don't plan on racing your car, but want it for the sound and a little extra kick, its a great exhaust.
