Uh, yeah. From corksport

Seriously, the corksport exhaust looks exactly the same, and apparently sounds just as good, except a bit louder. And for $289, you can't beat it!

I have a Racing A N1 single. Looks, sounds just like a Apex. I got mine for $250. Hell, get 2 Dynomax mufflers, w/ 3in inlet and 3in outlet. Not stainless, but the same size as the N1.

Try to find one used, some people sell their duals because they are switching to single.

Couldn't find a single, but the dual (2 mufflers not tips) is avail for $556 on groupbuycenter.com

Not bad at all for a dual muffler cat-back.

rx7store.net has the single cheaper than anyone, but corksport.com has a better single for even less Speaking of which a cop pulled me over tonight to admire my car's exhaust note! He said he wished his cruiser sounded that mean. Corksport, $290 and the cops love it!

Great... cops pull you over just for the exhaust note? The corksport catback is already in the mail for my T2 FC.. hope no San Jose cops pull me over. I hate cops. But for $289, you can't beat that!

yea ima be gettin the cork sport single soon for my n/a, i would like to run a racing beat street header with the silencer and the cork sport cat back, but 198$ for the silencer is absolutely ridiculous, if i could get one cheaper maybe, but not for 200$ or i may just keep my pace setter header and use it with the cork sport setup

Well no he didn't pull me over for the note.....He pulled me over because I was going a bit fast But he got distracted by the exhaust when he walked up to my car, next thing I know we're talkin about how nice it would be if cops could customize their cars, like the cop in "TOMMY BOY" with the NOS system and ****. Yeah I was going like 40 in a 25 (middle of the night, industrial area) and he wanted me to slow down a bit, but I'm for real that he liked teh exhaust Cops around here are OK, but i still hate them when they pick on me. You know there was another dude today who was yellin at me at a red light that he liked teh exhaust, said he had a 7 too, and he just might get teh corksport for his now that he heard it. But don't worry, it's not loud enough for a cop to bother you about it. If yuo think it is, jst order teh silencer too when they become available in a few weeks.!!!!

Im planning the Racing Beat Full System (Down pipe back), simply because it's a good deal for the whole setup, it's hp proven ~55hp.....

Corksport looks nice, and I have heard nothing but good things about it....cept Im in it for performance, and am yet to see any real numbers from it.

Racing beat claims 5-7hp gains on the cat-back.....

I'll have to email Corksport and see if they have any numbers on the system.....anyone happen to have them by any chance?

Choosing between the Racing Beat turbo back or the Corksport single is going from one extreme to the other on sound and volume.

many things.

most obvious is weight distribution and smell.

weight on paddenger side is good, will balance driver side a bit better than adding more weight on driver's side. not that big of a deal, but still.

I most times than not drive with my window down and it will suck of the nasty smell will be blowing my way. I would much rather it being further away from me.
