Default magnaflow apex or rs-r mufflers

i currently have 2.5 inch piping all the way thru with a dummy cat converter and i was wondering what muffler i should go with. i dont want the super loud exhaust noises that will wake up my whole neighborhood. i have heard rs-r mufflers were quiet with a nice low rumble..how was the magnaflow and apex WS's?? oh yeah, i am currently running a turboed setup and i've heard that lowers the noise coming out of the muffler. thanks.

Turbo with 2.5 inch exhuast? hmm.

i personally love my N1, but its not exactly quiet. From what i understand, thermal, and the apex WS are pretty quiet.

2.5 is ideal for a N/A mild to full build setup. For turbo its usally a good idea to go 3.0

Do you have a GReddy kit or something? or a custom setup?

With a turbo, you are moving much more air and you want it as free flowing as possible.

you should really go 3" piping...

As far as loudness, slap on a 27" resonator on the custom piping...

you can also run the "dynomax" muffler.
