Apexi N1 or dual? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

SilviaS13pwr · 10-13-2002, 03:13 PM

I know that this has been asked many times, but I need help deciding on an exhaust. I want to get the Apexi N1 or the N1 dual. I have heard many good things about both of them. I just can't decide which one I want to get. Can you help me pick?

N1 + N1 Dual = LOOOOOOOOOUUUUUUUUUUUUUDDDDDDDD

Just get which ever you think looks best.

SilviaSR20DET · 10-13-2002, 06:57 PM

I personally like both of them but i chose to buy the n1 dual based on its reviews of people who had them. So its up to you what you like. Good Luck  <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='

I have the N1 Dual and i like it quite a bit.  I like the dual piping look better then the single bigger piping look.

I would have to agree with SSJ.. Dual looks a lot better in my opinion.  <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='

i like them both but i d go with the single the double looks like theres a shiitload going on back there ..dunno just me i guess

ATL S13 · 10-14-2002, 01:53 PM

I have the N1 Dual.. and it sounds really nice.. I think it may be kinda loud N/A but sounds great with a turbo motor.  As much as I love it.. I think I'm getting rid of it to get a Bee R Type III Dual N1.

Kreator · 10-14-2002, 06:17 PM

NOOOOOOOOOOO don't get the duals, they look UGLY..... thinking about it, n1 looks ugly too.... get the HKS Sport, or custom piping and find a descent looking muffler... or just get whichever of the two you find less ugly  <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/turn.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':turn:'>

SSJ2Gohan · 10-14-2002, 09:39 PM

I have to disagree.  The dual looks great in my opinion.  Guess its just gonna boil down to your own personal taste.  That's why there is lots of companies that make exhausts.

I personally think the size looks agressive, while not intrusive.  My N1 universal muffler I had before had people seeing it and automatically assume its super loud even though it was quiet as could be.  Also the stainless steel gives a nice shiney finish.

Oh look at the jackass who instead of making a tasteful dispute, mocks my post. Besides, its better than "look at my civic!  It's loud enough to make my dads lawnmower look weak!  I oWn!"

SimpleS14 · 10-14-2002, 11:04 PM

I ordered the N1 dual...right now I'm just waiting for it to arrive.   <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/huh.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':huh:'>

I like it personally because of the looks and sound.  I have seen and heard the exhaust on both an N/A and turbo car.  They both sound nice, yet the turbo car sounded smoother.

Get the dual only if you want alot of show, alittle go, and attention from left to right.   <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/alien.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':alien:'>

No u interpreted it wrong. If i insulted you, sorry wasn't intending to. You were supposed to read between the lines. Something to the note of: "Yeah it's aggressive, sounds really good. But when you got something aggressive that you wonna show off to people, you gotta back that up with something. Like a turbo. Otherwise, to most people you are no different than a ricer with a fartcan"....
Oh, and i still think it looks ugly on our cars... too big.

shrumhead · 10-14-2002, 11:58 PM

I really want the n1 dual exhaust system, but I'm wondering how much of an HP boost I should expect?  I have a 1993 240sx
