That looks like the a'pexi catback.
Pretty common cheap exaust package.
Go with racing beat dual mufflers you'll thank yourself if you hear the difference.
Unless cost is a big factor.

go to your local ricer sho and you can get them for 99 bux each.....then go to a muffler shop and have them install it with 2.25" piping from the CAT-Back.

Nope. Not Apexi and the N1's are certainly not cheap. The price rivals the RB dual.

Wow, A'pexi is expensive nevermind.

All i know is rotarys exaust gets very hot and eats muffler shop mufflers generally.
Safest bet is racing beat. They are good value, look good, and sound great in my opinion.

That's NOT an A'PEXi N1 type of muffler.
The A'PEXi N1 muffler is NOT diagonal, slash-cut like that.
The A'PEXi N1 muffler is all straight cut.

It could be just a generic Made-In-Taiwan muffler - got lots to choose from if you look.

just like Ted said

not A'PEXi
just some generic brand of muffler it seems to me that they would sell at some ricer shop

some people on this board have different opinions
either its the
1)A'PEXi - N1 or the other name i cant remember
2)Racing Beat - seems the majority goes to this one
3)Greddy- I want to get thier power extreme exhaust.....but i cant find it sounds the best IMO

and lots of others

You pay almost that for any quality catback, especially duals.

This isn't about mufflers but pertains to exhaust I was wondering, I always hear that rotary exhaust is much hotter than say comparable piston engine exhaust and I was just wondering why that is so?
