I can't make up my mind.

I can't make up my mind between the Apex i GT Spec or N1 Dual exhausts. Any opinions on either one? Some pics of cars with them would be great too.

I have the GT exhaust. I have never heard anything bad about either one though. I just picked my GT b/c I got a great deal on it, I like the look of a single muffler/tip better, and b/c of the huge pipe diameter. Also, it is polished stainless steel all the way back.


I don't know about the N1, but my GT is loud. When I pull into the garage and put the turbo timer on, my Mom's china rattles until the engine shuts off!

I have the N1 Duals, and they sound great. Very loud at WOT.

They droned a bit before I put a Borla XR-1 in the midpipe.

I like the look also.

i have the n1 dual and love it. not so bad at idle but when on the second turbo and passing someone...lets just say they get scared! besides you cant beat the looks of it.

Today, i have actually read some evidence that perhaps the n1 dual doesnt flow like everyone thinks. A list member had the PFS catback and was running a nice 10 psi. He then switch to the n1 dual and got only 9.25. i think that is pretty good evidence that it doesnt flow that great....this doesnt make me want to switch out the N1 dual though.

I dunno. I've heard the N1 duals, and IMHO, it sounds like borderline rice...

personally, i hate the sound of the high flowing cat-back systems for the FD. here is a video to prove it. listen after 40 seconds when the FD takes off. it sound like ****, IMO.

i think this FD has either a GT spec or N1 dual. i cant tell, but i think it is one of those. those two systems sound the same anyways.
