APEX-i, GREDDY, HKS, or BLITZ?

I want to put a catback exhaust system on my car but im not sure of the advantages and disadvantages of each. Help me out what runs? Apex-i GT Spec, Apex-i N1, Greddy PE, HKS Dragger, etc...

HKS Titanium if you can afford it otherwise i would go with Apexi N1. But what do you mean advantages disadvantages? On performance side they all are about the same.

Like racer1 said performance side it is the same but there is a different in wieght and sound thats pretty much all if you consider that performance.

I personally would highly recommend the Blitz Nur-Spec

HKS dragger if you don't want loud. just perfect

Aexi N1, if you want loud. Because this exhaust you can hear your voice vibrate from the back.

Hy, I'm also trying to make a decision what exhaust to go for. But I don't want it to be loud or with a very high one (like most Honda N/A engines when reving)

Just a low deep tone at idle,cruise and high speed

Racing Beat dual tip CB. Looks stock but flows just as good as Apex'i or GReddy. If you want the aftermarket look then go with Blitz NUR spec or the Jun CB. I believe that the Jun showed the biggest power gain, but it's a huge tip and it is LOUD!! I ran the Racing Beat dual tip and LOVED IT. I will be using it again with my 550rwhp FD project. I was going to build it out of an FC, but I just miss my FD too much to go without it any longer. Ok, I'm done rambling now. Best of luck with your choices.

I love the Blitz NurSpec, cheap, good quality, all stainless, nice sounding, I'd suggest it for someone not looking to spend a lot of money.

I have the Apex N1. Yeah it's loud but I think it's a nice flowing cat back system and sounds good too.
