Hey guys, just looking for peoples opinions on the best cat back exhaust to buy... Im looking for a Jap brand straight bolt up rather than getting one made.
Iv been thinking about the Apexi N1 becasue if herd a few good things about them.. But its only 2.75" ?

Apex GT spec is probably the best exhaust for you. it has large diameter piping and good sound.. it's a turbo only exhaust..

Blitz Nur Spec-R is pretty good, I like it...

N1 is 75mm...25.4mm in an inch = 75/25.4 = 2.95"

Good bang for the buck exhaust.

GT Spec is even nicer, and only $60 more...I like it b/c it's full stainless steel.

3" is PLENTY for a boosted 2.0 liter, unless you have a T67 or something...at 25psi

Has anyone tried the spec TI titanium one by GP Sports? Only 4.9kg, which is.. 10.78lbs... pretty damn light for a full catback, I'm not sure what the GT spec is though...

APEXi N1 is a good way to go. very close in diameter for pipe and tip size to the HKS 25th. it also hangs a tad higher than the HKS (1.8in.) from the ground if you fear scratching. a little more of a cost effective alternative, $400-450+shipping (long piece, extra shipping).

Thanks guys, ill look into the exhausts you have mentioned...
I have big plans for my car and a big turbo is on the list, should I look for a cat back system a bit bigger than 3" say 3.5"/3.7" ?

Cheers...
