    I wouldn't get a 5Zigen, HP gains are not very good.

    but also with any good aftermarket exhaust you are paying for the name.... for me i would rather pay a little more to get a good quality exhaust thats mandrel bent, neatly welded, stainless then to get a cheap crush bent one...

    Apexi'i N-1 exhaust would cost either the same or more then a 5-zigen. I say look around and pick what you like.

    If you want I know a really really good welder at a reasonable price. He is able to take a Mandrel bent U bend. and make a amazing creation. If you want you can take a peek at his handiwork next wensday at the 403 meet I'll be there

    Apex and greddy are awesome catbacks, also the tanabe is a good system, I recommend saving money to buy a full catback and not just an axelback

    Yes exactly what shadowz said, he's right on..
    Why go axleback?? your piping is still gonna be smaller all the way to the cats, so only air is flowing faster once you get past the cats and then halfway down the exhaust system?

    Go full catback here is a price on the Full Apexi N1-$825
    Greddy is great, but there products are always back ordered like crazy.

    yeah i'll be down there. i need to get my midpipe redone in stainless. guyon's does something similar. takes mandrel U bends, cut and weld together. they charge $75/hour on top of shop supplies.

    True that.

    The best idea i think is getting a brand name muffler and getting custom mandrel bent pipin and remember keep ur resonator so ur car doesnt sound like shit
