Question Custom exhaust help

Allright, I have a 97 RS (sad indeed) but im looking to get a custom exhaust. I want one that doesn't sound to ricy, obviously. I think i'm goin to install a Hahn turbo next summer, so i want somthing that will sound good both with and without a turbo. Ive already looked at a number of companies that make them, but i want to know how they sound before i buy. Please help...

The only muffler I have heard that is not ricy, is the Apexi N1(on a N/T car). If you turbo your car, its hard to make it sound ricy, the turbo drowns out the sound alot, so the muffler doesnt make much of a difference.

I've pretty much decided to buy the N1, however they offer systems both for the T & N/T (GS-T & GS) What is the difference between them, and if I installed the GS model, would i need to replace anything if I installed a turbo like i plan? the Apexi-usa website did not give any information on this...so if anyone knows, or even has an idea, please share...Thanks

The main difference will be the piping, thats about it. So you might wanna hold off and get the turbo exhaust, instead of buying two systems.

Excellent choice, I installed a 2.5" cat back on my buddies 98 n/t Talon, and it sounds great. I will be getting an N1 muffler when I get my exhaust done on the TSi

Thanks, well the only problem is, is I need to replace my flex pipes in the near future and I'd obviously just rather install the system now..unless i can install the turbo exhaust now, without having the turbo, and see how it runs...or if i can wait it out all together and hope the pipes hold up...hmmm...what to do, what to do....
