It collapsed on me! The piping was rusting and the can fell apart.

I think the Greddy just looks funny. I love my N1 and if I had to go with a different choice I would go with the 5Zigen Fireball. Those two look the best and I get comments all the time about how my N1 looks and sounds. N1 is the best imo.

.......I remember someone saying Hayame before......stock piping.
It's been stuck in my head ever since, as what I'll probably end up with. Maybe just the 'el cheapo stock turbo exhaust.

The most performance I can get......without sounding like a friggen bumble-bee.

I dunno, I'm happy with my Greddy. So far, it doesn't seem to be rusting. Good sound, like the looks. Plus the fact that its not that loud, so I know I won't be pulled over by cops. And if I have legal problems with it, Greddy office is just a mile away. I could then ask for documents whether its legal or not. I don't think I'd have that privilege with a muffler and custom piping. But that's just me...
25919, I agree...
Posted by Skrilla, Jun-26-02 02:19 PM
I spent 225 for a week old Magnaflow muffler and complete catback so there is no way I'd spen over twice that for a freakin system. I could even get a complete mandrel bent 3" for $250 at the local muffler shop using premandrel bent pieces.
