18600, apexi n1 review Posted by mitseclps, Mar-27-02 02:50 PM
HOLY SHT it hangs low. it's about 2" lower than the lowest part of my car, ie it's about 1.5 to 2" off the ground. if you have a VERY VERY low car, DO NOT GET THIS EXHAUST. i've heard the thermal hangs low too but this is rediculus. either way it's nice besides that. it smells really bad but i think i'ts just b/c i'm burning out the inside of it.

i got it for 475 shipped. it was thru a dealer who works at greddy or something. my friends and i order all our stuff from him (well, not EVERYTHING, but he's got great prices to say the least.) that and my n1 came w/ the silencer. that's a 50$ part by itself.

Get a custom bent exhaust and get the universal muffler. I got the whole thing (essentially custom cat back) for 265.
Turbo N-1 universal -> 80mm inlet
check groupbuy.com for best prices.

read that and then get back to me about a custom exhaust.
my car is 2-3" lower. i have sprint springs on there which werwe supposed to be a 2" drop but they really settled in. after about a month the car just SLAMMED itself. it was wierd. either way, the exhaust is very nice quality and i love it, even thou it's really really damn low.

ps i remember calling nopi in atlanta and they said it was 560$ shipped. this is the turbo n1 model, it's more expensive than the n/a one b/c the piping is bigger.
pss the exhaust in incrediably quiet compaired to my greddy sp. it's got a deeper tone, but is much quieter. w/ the silencer it's quiter than stock, w/o it it's not loud unless i rev it up, in which case it spools like i'm running an open dp.

yeah thats the 3in turbo catback right.. looks nice.. i love the simple look of the N1.. i should be getting mine put on with custom piping soon, but its only the NA version. at first i didnt realize there was a difference in the size of the canister and outlet till i saw the turbo one and mine.. and i was like man mines so small. ;-)

I didn't say you had to do this b/c it's too late for you and I can understand why you didn't go custom. Depending on where you live, it can be done much cheaper. It should be an option for anyone else looking for this setup though. I'm lowered about 2.5" as well and the shop had no problems.
