Sorry guys, please help again!

Hey guys....i hate to bother everyone with another exhaust question, but i really want to get the best deal out there and [u] i cant get a custom one because the only one around me charges too much. I also dont like rushing into things. I made that mistake getting a gst rather than a gsx. So that being said: Which would you prefer and would be better? I wanna keep it under 500 and i dont wanna over pay.

5Zigen fireball cat back exhaust: 375 shipped
OR
Apexi N1 cat back exhaust:465 shipped
both are three inch piping

Please let me know. Here are the sites-both reliable

apexi: www.turboimport.com

5Zigen: www.ardperformance.com

Thanks!

Re: Sorry guys, please help again!

I've never heard of a 5Zigen exhaust for an eclipse, but hell, if it is 3" piping and cheaper, I'd go with that.

Re: Sorry guys, please help again!

I am guess o*her meant that taking an exhaust for an other car and cutting it and welding it to fit yours, but that is a waste of time/money IMO. You can just get one custom made and it would be cheaper than that.

APEXi Is the best thing you can do for a dsm. It dont matter if you are getting a super afc or a FMIC. They have been doing it for a long time. Run with the best and you'll smoke the rest!

Re: Sorry guys, please help again!

think muffler shape. N1 tube is gunna 'ping' more than a GReddy EVO type barrel one that produces a lower note. and an eliptical one will sound even lower...

i would get the N1...

i would personally go with the N1, but its your choice. If youre on a budget go with the other, its all just piping!

Good Luck!
