Performance wise no, the WS will sound a bit deeper and the muffler/tip will look nicer.

It's an exhaust, and it's better than stock...and it looks nice. That's as far as the positives will go...

Negatives:
It's not a very efficient design. It's almost no better than stock. Like Misfit said, an exhaust like the RM-01A will outflow it (it's just like an N1) and offer the same noise output thanks to the resonated design.

Apex'i materials are...cheap (besides the SS canister). The picture below is that of my old Apex'i WS piping (ceramic coated steel) next to that of the Fujitsubo RM-01A (full polished SS). Even after months of use the RM-01A looks just like it does in the picture.



Do a bit more research, don't just take it from me.

I used to really want this exhaust but it simply is for nothing more than looks and a bit more sound. You won't really get more performance from it.
