I ripped my exhaust sytem to pieces from being so slammed and i been rocking it out with no muffler for awhile and i really am diggin that look of no exhaust, but dont like the sound AT ALL.

So i am choosing between the Apexi Noir exhaust \/

and the buddy club spec II (i know its loud but i really like the look)

and i know the buddy club is gonna offer more "performance" but honestly i just have a stock gsr motor in the car and i am not really out there to make this car really fast or anything.

and here is when i had the nasty ws2 that i could stand the look of

I ride around with no muffler. I like the look of the buddy club. Just don't get something that sounds like a weed wacker.

Buddy Club is my vote. So, would you be selling the WS2 exhaust? Because, if so I am interested.

ya i am scared to get the noir cause i like my car to have some exhaust note, and all the videos i have seen of the noir it sounds almost factory.

soooo might just order buddy club in the morning!!!

i am trying to get car ready for import alliance fall meet!

well the noir is based on the original world sport 1, which is what i have, and yeah it is pretty quiet, except at WOT then it's loud as shit, but the noir could be a little different, eh who knows

I was gonna say that

instead of payin the price of the buddy club jus go to an exhaust shop and get them to make you a system for half the price

Here's what I had made 5" of fury

You gotta remember that videos don't portray the real sound of exhausts very well. Did a little video of my buddy's straight pipes last week and decided to record my exhaust as well....and its pretty quiet in the video
