Fact: the Apex'i is flows good.
Fact: The Apex'i is loud as hell.
Opinion: The Apex'i is a lil too ricey and loud for me.
Fact: The new racing beat flows good.
Fact: The Racing Beat is not loud.
Fact: The Racing Beat looks stock.
Opinion: The Racing Beat is great if you want something that add pefromance won't make your ears bleed or make you get pulled over while looking fairly stock.
Fact: The M2 Dual tip looks nice
Fact: The M2 Dual sounds nice
Fact: If you order through M2 you may not have a 7 anymore, by the time you get it.
Opinion: Its a nice exhaust if you can get one, and someone has it in stock.
Fact: The Borla flows okay, but has too small of a pipe diameter to flow good
Fact: The Borla looks good.
Fact: Borla sounds good.
Fact: Borla no longer makes this exhaust.
Opinion: This may be one you could get cheap, and comes with a million mile warranty.

Fact: glass_man is a queer.
Fact: i was just kidding.

in all seriousness, the only dual tip exhausts worth looking at, IMO, are the Apex N1 Dual, Racing Beat Dual, and M2 Dual. the Borla is a 2.5" cat-back system, and i dont think they make it anymore. even if they did, to get a 2.5" cat-back exhuaust system, IMO, is a waste of money.

the Apex is good if you want all out flow and power. however, it is not good unless you like having your ears ringing 24/7. . yeah...it is loud! and it looks...ok. it is mild steel from the cat-back, with SS cannisters.

the RB and M2 are very similar in design. both are very quiet (relatively speaking) and good flowing units, with a near stock appearance. both are also 3" SS from the cat-back.

what if I fitted the scilencer on the N1...
because that seem to be its only problem... how is the sound then?

(i dont like noisy exausts either)

other then duel exausts how are the HKS?

Everyone has commented nicely about my M2 dual tip. It flows great as I found out when I installed it this winter. With a downpipe only I was boosting to 11 psi with 12 psi spikes. After installing M2 dual I was boosting to 13 psi and getting 15 psi spikes everytime! Have since changed wastegate pill.

The M2 is quiet and a little rumbly, will never be mistaken for a fart can. The Racing Beat is similar but all the cars I have heard it on were either street ported or had midpipes, most people seem to think it is even quieter than the M2.

My car is daily driven and it is no louder on the highway unless you open it up above 4500 rpm. It doesn't attract attention in town either unless you really step on it.

actually do you guys know what exaust that is?

if its apex does it come with the option for a silencer?

glass man had a funny *** reply! anyways, i don't have any of those but i've actually had the chance to hold an m2 dual tip in my hands and take a good look at it. it doesn't have any extreme bends in the piping like the n1 dual does possibly restricting flow a little bit. i can't comment on the borla or racing beat because i haven't seen them off the car. if it was me it would be m2 or racing beat. just make sure m2 has it in stock before you order

That looks like the Apexi exhaust to me. I have that one and it is loud. I also have the silencers and they do help some, but it is still pretty loud. I like it, though.

i have the dual n1 and its super loud
i have silencers but they do choke the car on top end.
I bought a borla xr-1 mufffler to weld into the midpipe, hopefully that will quiet things.
