I took a short video of my exhaust to give you guys an idea of what the APEX'i N1 cat back sounds like with the following under the hood:

LS/VTEC
11.3:1 Compression
Skunk2 Stage II Racing VTEC Camshafts
DC Sports Integra Type R JDM 4-1 Header (2.5" Collector)
J's Racing EG Carbon Fiber Intake
A'PEXi N1 Cat-Back Exhaust
2.5" Custom Test Pipe / Flex Pipe

There is a ***** load of white smoke coming out of the exhaust, you have a broken headgasket (not really). I have the WS on mine and was looking into changing it out for the larger diameter N1 turbo catback. I just can't stand the sound of the N1 during constant revs. Does it bother you during highway driving?

It's condensation, I swear. . No, it gets quite quiet at constant speeds. It is quite loud though under any kind of acceleration what so ever.

 

Well, it looks nice. No sound on this end cause its time to retire this computer.

 

 

heres a video n pic of my apexi n1

mine has a stock cat pipe and also resonator.

 

Anyone else want to hear it?

 

wow thats loud..i like!!

 

Nice. I once had an A'PEXi N1 but got rid of it because I was tired of the way it looked. I loved the sound, though. Now I run a Spoon N1 axle-back. Sounds almost identical to the A'PEXi in terms of volume and tone. I just like the smaller tip better. The A'PEXi is a good exhaust, though.

 

sounds like a fart can

 

Im about to install my apexi n1 with 2.25. I just havent decided to go with or without a resonator. My local shop told me 75-80 for a resonator is that about right?

I think the little mic's on the cameras pick up a lot more treble than bass. My n1 has a smooth deep tone, and does not sound at all like those.

 

sounds nice.. post up a video of the car in motion

This is definitely true! I have a soundclip of my Spoon N1 I made over the weekend, and it sounds nothing like it does in real life. Granted, in reality it still sounds farty, but it is a very deep fart. In the video I took, it sounds really raspy and high-pitched. Unless you use a bunch of professional **** (quality microphones, an equalizer, etc.) instead of a video camera or your digi cam in video mode, the true sound won't get picked up.

 

can you just use the stock resonator with my 2.25 and apexi n1?

You can, but it'll be a major bottleneck because the inlet/outlet won't match up to the 2.25" piping. You're better off getting a resonator that uses at least 2.25" inlet/outlet diameters.

 

whats the usual price for one. 80 sound right? will i notice a big difference on with the apexi n1

 

It depends on the brand and where you're buying from, but $80 sounds reasonable for a resonator. If it's a big one, the N1 will be much quieter and sound a little deeper. If it's small--like the one that A'PEXi uses--then you won't notice much of a difference. In terms of power, probably won't notice it at all.
