I don't have a pic of mine but my dc exhaust is kinda crooked, the right part of the muffler seems to hang a little bit higher than the left sounds really deep though.

I've got the DC on my car. I like it. Dont have any pics though. Let me double check though...

That would be a negative on the pics. I can take some soon though if you like.

i remember a lot of people saying exhaust dont really make a big difference. ust make sure you get mandrel bends. So I needed something quiet and it HAD to be stainless. Thats why I went with the DC. Thermal was a good one, but its pretty damn loud. I dont think power is going to make much of a difference.

would you guys say there is a noticible difference between the two? i mean the dc is a month old and in perfect condition (also stainless....)...im not hating on the ws supporters, just wanna be sure the 70$ more is worth it...

I took pics of the DC exhaust today. I'll get them posted tomorrow. It looks similar to the WS. My car is a 95, so the car itself will look a bit different

neo1z,

go for the WS

I don't think you can notice a power gain from just an exhaust...2-3 hp? and that's most likely not across the entire power band...

i think exhausts are just sound and look cool....unless you've got FI...you could probably notice a bigger difference then....

Default A'PEXi WS




Looks-wise, I'd take the WS over the DC. If you like loud exhausts, the WS may not fit your bill. But if you want a relatively quiet exhaust that won't give you a headache after a two hour drive, the WS is the way to go.

Sorry about the pics...it was a cloudy day.

My DC hangs perfectly straight. It has for the past two years. I would highly recommend it to anyone. The sound is excellent.

I can't honestly compare the two because no one I know has ws.
