Ummm, .... I haven't really seen power comparisons and as for sound that is nothing but opinion and changes depending on what other mods you have.

I'm gonna say that the best bang for your buck exhuast is the Apexi GT Spec 4, but it's loud as hell. The Apexi N1 Dual would be next for flow and noise. I've heard that the new M2 Dual Tip exhaust is similar in flow characteristics to the N1 Dual, and is quieter.

I love my BLitz NuR-spec although I know there are many on this forum who dislike the "fart cannon" canister look, but its a very nice exhaust. Fits perfect, 3" all the way thourgh, and stainless steal all the way through. I heard the apex'i unit only has a stainless muffler section.

With my DP I get a nice deep rumbly tone. It is a little loud though, so if you want something quite this probably isn't it.

hey guys...

My sentiments exactly ZoomSpeed. I just put on the Blitz NurSpec and i really like it a lot. I have pretty much the same mods expect a different computer (that i haven;t even put in yet). But overall i like the exhaust a lot and considering how much i paid, its worth every penny. Its about the same price as an Apec N1. I like the tone on all powerbands. Its nice and throaty at the low and mid end and gets smooth at high end. I wonder whats gonna happen after a high flow cat or midpipe?

Im gonna have to vote for the A'pexi GT Spec. It has 3inch stainless steel design, which expands to 3.75 inch near the end; creating a small venturi effect which will improve flow characteristics

It's extremely loud and to some it's gaudy (I like the way it looks on an FD) but it has probably the best performance compared to others... unless you're willing to shuck out a few grand for the HKS Titanium or the ARC exhausts

IMO, all the single tip exhaust systems look like ****. all the tips are over 5 inches.

i like the look of any of the dual tips. N1 dual, RB dual, M2.....they all look good and are about the same in terms of performance. im pretty sure the differnce between the GT spec and RB dual is no more than 5 hp.

if you want the BEST cat back, i say get either the M2 dual tip or RB dual tip. the best looking and quietest exhausts, that flow just as well as the rest of 'em.

Hey Joey D,

I have a PFS w/a single tip (4 inches I believe) and I really like it. I don't like Peter Farrell himself, but that's a different story. The catback is shiny chrome and is just big enough. Loud as **** at WOT w/no cats though.
