Corksports Driver Exit Exaust
K Everyone,
I am likely to go with this exaust however, I love to drift and such so I don't want to **** up my weight distro too much, well I mean I can but I wouldn't like to. I want to know how much fucked up it would be with the driver exit exaust? And if so would it be worth a USED 400 dollar Apexi Gt that was a passenger side exit? I like the 308 some odd dollar shipped price of the corksport and it has something like a 3' tip which is really cool also. Moreover I won't be running any cats, just a Bonez RP in a 89 GXL

The Corksport exhaust system weighs about as much as one of the stock mufflers. The stock system weights a lot. You will not notice a thing about the weight distribution while drifting. It is loud, very, very loud on my '89 T2 (3" everything w/out cats). I can only imagine how loud it'll be on your car without the muffling the turbine offers.

Well, it is a good deal and I plan to buy it on account of availability and pricing, hey I am a 17 year old, loud cars appeal to me. I have stock manifold so that should help plus I am in the process of having a silencer constructed for it.

when I drove a Viper with those type of exhaust, IT WAS LOUD IN THE CABIN!!! I couldn't imagine picking up a girl in that and trying to talk to her (I know, who wants to talk) and it actually got a little warm on the door side of the seat. I think it's pretty cool looking, I know the rx isnt' a viper, but something for you to consider

Yes, a rex will be loud in the cabin since they don't have **** for dampening but who cares, my car was always intended to attract women, not drive them around in it. My clutch sucks so there would be some jerking and would probably turn them off. Plust they are just extra baggage when it comes to drifting

jimmyv13: It is loud. At idle and on up. If cops enforce that at all where you live, they will notice you.

i ordered one an dit will arive on wednesday, and be put on my NA 91 thursday. will let you know how loud it really is. By the way the dudes at corksport said that they are working on a screw in silencer for it. It should run about 25 bux he said and they should have them in in a week or two. That should help keep it quiet for when your in town around the cops.
Also I have a straight pipe in place of my cats so it should be even louder than expected. Will give an update as soon as I get it on. peace

Corksport says it's louder than the Apexi GT but not as loud as the N1. So that should give you an idea. Sounds perfect if you ask me. But as I said I'll have it on in a few days and will give you my take on the sound. I just hope this will cure my lack of fire breathing.

EAR CANDY! that's it, man ,it sounds awesome. Really deep and mellowat adle and on up to 3K from 3-5K it's a higher pitch but still mellow, then above 5K it's louder and just makes your ears ***. I mean the best sound it makes is at around 3500-4500 at WOT. Now I have a 90 NA with zero catsand it's not super loud...but I will need to upgrade my subs...I'm sending 250 watts to each of 2 10s, and at a good thump I can still hear the exhaust as a constant drone in teh background. And it does add several horses too. I don't know but I would say at least 10 Hp because I live out heere in the sticks and I have to cross several mountains on my drive to work and stuff. I used to have to downshift to 4th to get over these hills, but now I can roll right over the mountains without the car even thinking twice about it I should have a sound clip saturday night I hope. Sorry its taking so long.
Peace.
BTW: If anyone is just wondering about it, Let me tell you this is a bad-*** setup, it's beautiful, sounds great, and makes the car feel much more lively. I highly recomend it to everyone.
GO ORDER IT!

OK the dude at corksport must not know his exhaust sounds, cause thats what he told me, I guess he's not familiar with teh apexi systems. Anyway, It's not that loud, it's MELLOW pretty deep and smooth, but not loud unless your really on it, WOT around 4K is nice and loud but thats about it. I'm trying to hook up with a chick at work who has a camera W/sound on it so I can get a clip on here. Later

Not that it matters now, but the N1 is pass exit and GT is drivers side. As for the loudness, I suspect he just got the two apex exhausts mixed up. The n1 is pretty damn loud, but not unbearable. I have one on mine with the RB header/presilencer, but it also has a large street port and a ported exhaust with turbo housings so no diffuser. Around here the cops don't care. I drove mine for a few days with an open header and they still didn't do anything.

Hit me up at Sevenstock if anyone is interested in hearing a real life corksport with no cats.
They are very loud. Highway drone sucks *** too.
For a track car, I could probably deal with it. Daily driving mine sucks ***. Cops will also know where you are before they even see you.
Mine actually keeps me from speeding since they would have plenty of time to set up and tag me.
I also have the silencer but think it is crap since it then restrictsa the exhaust to less than stock flow.
