    Lightbulb what exhaust? (i knowa total newb question)

    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.

    car pic for reference



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



    let me know what you guys think and if there is another better choice out there let me know!

    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.

    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

    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
