I am right, look at this link and read the descriptions for the 2 systems....

http://www.modacar.com/products/Honda/Accord/MODACAB

EVO.....

"New to the Greddy exhaust systems lineup is the Evolution. It shows similarities to the Power Extreme but is designed differently. The muffer and tip are resized to fit closer to the body and allows better ground clearance. Features a 115mm tip embossed with the Greddy logo. The MUFFLER (just the muffler, not the full exhaust) is stainless steel providing a strong powerful tone. It is 50 state legal and features a straight through design and mandrel bends for maximum performance."

Apexi WS.....

"A'PEXi World Sport Cat Back Exhaust Systems. These full cat back systems are constructed with SUS T-304 stainless steel CANISTER AND TIP (again, not the full exhaust). ALUMINIZED STEEL PIPING statically treated with titanium power coat. These cat back exhaust systems are also engineered to produce strong mid to top end power for high responsive feel."


Yes, parts of the EVO and WS systems (mufflers and tips) are stainless, but not full stainless like the DC System

Maybe I know my stuff a little better than both you think!

WTH, isn't that what I said in my post? Go back and read what I said. I said that SAME exact thing about my WS system. I never said it was FULLY S/S, just that the tip and can are.

But believe me when I say DC isn't all that, they are to the parts industry, what Nike is to shoes, just a fancy name in my books. Their strut bars are a POS, that much I know. A good bar should NOT be able to flex in the middle, especially if you grab it and tug on it. Not very safe. I've seen that with my own eyes.

I never said you were wrong about the DC system, I jeust read what you originally posted as saying that the other 2 systems are not S/S in ANY part of them. The can and the tip are what matter most for being S/S in an exhaust system, look at your factory system, Honda states it as being S/S when infact ONLY the can and resonator piece S/S, the piping is actually treated galvonized steel, so it'll resist rusting and corrosion. The whole system isn't S/S like they lead you to believe. The DC system is infact ALL S/S even down to the hangers. But material wise, I can almost bet you my A'pexi system is just as good as the DC system, S/S or not. It's just all on what they use to make it with, and how they make it.

I dunno...
I think I might go with the Greddy but it sounds like they're fairly similar.
But me??
I'm getting the Fireball (catback) by 5zigen. (maybe)
