guys what exhaust would be good for a turbo 2 a apex straight cat or racing beat with y pipe

Bukwild

depends if you want a high dollar apexi "name brand" that honda kids can relate to. It will be loud and cost as much as a jspec engine.

Racing Beat costs just as much but honda kids can't relate to the name brand. also this is the exhaust that your grandmother will love because its very quiet.

Corksport is cheap and loud. Its straight through your grand mother will not like your car anymore. corksport complete exhaust system is the best bang for your buck mod you can get for a second gen imho.

When I first started modding my TII I started with a APEX I N1 Duals Cat back. I liked it ...

Then I added a bonez dp and high flow cat. I still liked it but it got louder. Then I went with a midpipe. Then it got allot louder. I really liked it....nice and loud...but for long trips I needed silenecers because it was starting to hurt my hearing.

I got the N1s when I was 20. Now I am 25 and I was tired of the noise.

I got teh Racing beat turbo back exhaust. After I installed it, saw the build quality, and heard it. I wished I bought it when I was 20.

there's a saying "if it's too loud, you're too old"

i'm getting my racing beat exhaust put on thursday, hopefully it's as quiet as everybody says or my gf will kill me! she didn't like how loud my greddy was on the 3g eclipse

If you are going to go with a system.. hands down... racing beat.....

if you are planning on keeping the car fairly stock (turbo, etc).. the 2.5 inch system will do nicely... its loud, but not crazy loud with the presilencer.

If you are planning on getting a BNR hybrid (keeps stock exhaust components)... the full 3" RB system will do nicely..

However.. If you are planning to do a custom turbo setup. at some point, you will either have to fabricate a new downpipe or add on to the racing beat since its designed to work with the stock system (no exterlan wastegate provisions, most likely not long enough since most aftermarket manifolds move the turbo forward of the stock position).

I love my RB 2.5" system.. But will sell it next year and go with the 3" RB rear section and fab up a turbo to y pipe setup from scratch as I'm going to add a GT seriers turbo and external wastegate manifold next year. (I will be using Racing Beat Flanges on the pipes!!!!)

depends what you want. they're both good exhausts but i went with the racing beat full because i'm going for the stock dual look and i like it quiet. i think the n1 looks nice but a little too obnoxious for my taste.

I just ordered the RB system about 20 minutes ago

I think I'm the only person in the world almost that absolutely hates Racing Beat exhaust systems other than their headers and downpipes. Don't get me wrong, Apexi is a BIG *** waste of money too, too overpriced. I just have custom exhausts made depending on what I want, a lot cheaper and I get exactly what I want.

Make your own custom exhaust, alot cheaper.

N-1 duals are the best exhaust for the TII. I've had mine for about a year and really like them. The look awesome and sound alot better then the others, the other exhausts are *****.

Considering the high price of all performance parts, I feel that the Apexi's were worth the price. A friend of mine got his duals for $275 used but in like new condition. If you don't want to pay for new, check ebay and the parts section of the forum.

On what foundation do you make that claim? Whats ***** about the Racing Beat Exhaust?

Madrx7racer

if by ***** ou mean they DO NOT SOUND LIKE RICE then yes....the RB is *****......you are going by looks and sound over performance, so your argument has no merit.....if you are an attentioni ***** then you will LOVE the N1s, cuz everyone and their dead grandmothers will hear you coming from 5 miles away (no joke) if you like to be discrete then you will like the RB setup because it is relatively quiet until you you are WOT........I have had a stock exhaust on my TII, then 2.5" turbo-back, then old-school HKS set up, and my current 3" turbo back.....the RB setup is a redesign of the HKS setup and it sounds amazingly quiet but I still saw 10 PSI in all the gears.....i hope to one day get the RB catback to mate it to my 3" turbo back....

I've got the RB turboback and absolutely love it! Ricers don't rev at me because I don't sound like them and that is fine by me. I like having an exhaust that I can hear myself think over while I'm cruising on the highway.

the drone(on the Apex-i N1s, and my current 3" turbo back) at HWY cruising speeds gets annoying like i am being tailed by a helicopter........

so if I absolutely had to go with a single can, how quiet can I get it without restricting too much? I'm thinking the rb can is too restricting for a one pipe setup. Anyone that can find me a nice muffler for that, I'll agree with whatever they think on this whole Apex/RB thing.

Madrx7racer

well, I was proved wrong about the RB canister.....so it appears that the RB canister IS straight through so I'd go with that....i think you can make a single exhaust RB setup....

how much for them ?>?

I have some gettho *** redneck exhaust right now but I plan on making a new one. All 2.5in stainless from the turbo (when i get one ) back out to a stainless magnaflow muffler (resonator) then split out to 2 Greddy Evo knockoff cans with 2.5in tips welded on. I think it will sound great and will still be less then a RB or Apex-i system
