1537, Quiet Exhaust for GST Posted by amljbs, Aug-31-05 09:57 AM
Well they have sold out of the R*SR Exhaust and Ive been told its discontinued. Anyone know of a good exhaust that low noise at idle and cruise.

I know Apex'i comes with a silencer, which screws into the tip, making it almost stock sounding. It's good for just cruising around, and taking it out when you hit the dragway. IMO, I like the idea.

If you really want a good exhaust, get the Apex'i N1. The sound is incredible out of this setup and it is very quiet at idle, compared to many others, and has a sweet hum on the highway cruising. But if you are hard on the gas, this little monster definitely makes some noise.
Another bonus. If you ever want to get a downpipe, you can order an apex'i n1 downpipe that will bolt directly up to that catback.

The Spyder I bought came with the 5Zigen Fireball exhaust. The sound is hardly noticeable unless at full throttle, but at the cost of having 2 resonators. That won't help performance much, but it keeps it quiet. I think it looks like crap personally.
Also, it was two years old when I got it and it was full of holes. It is not very well made. I would not suggest it.

I agree completely...the gains were minimal and the looks weren't great. I'm not entirely unhappy with it though :shrug

Ive had a couple people here locally tell me that the stock muffler flows pretty well that its just the cat that really blocks the flow. I realize this is probably only true up to a certain point. I really think I'm going to end up just doing apexi from the turbo back its a good price and widely available with a good name to back it.
By the way eclipse_gs_1512 like your car. Exactly like mine.

Check out turboimport.com and ask for AL. They may have some left overs, as they are official RS*R distributors. That is where I got my old school RS*R after they discont. the firt time around.
Edit: here ya go...

Get an N1 knockoff for $50 and have some pipe mandrel bend to get there.

I hear you on that one. Try ebay coilovers, a neon shift knob, and ebay UDP, LOL!!! Thats as far as I got on my 95 GS.
They might say it's useless for us to mod our FWDs but I'm gonna go ahead and do it anyways.
Best advice I can give to you, is take in as much advice, knowledge, and experience (tried and true) before you buy or do anything to your car!
