cat back- Stillen,Apexi WS,Greddy SP

I wanted to add a cat back, I have seen a varitiy of peeps who have there different tastes in the exhaust choices. I wanted to get one that has a nice growl,deep and throaty, I seen the max from the F&F 1 when it pulls out of the drive way, and it sounds nice as hell. I have seen a video with the Greddy and it seems nice and quite but a little more throaty at WOT, I still heard the intake over the exhaust. I just want to get some opinions
Thanks

OBX makes a good cat-back like the Greddy SP.

Looks great, sounds great, and sells for a great price.


Here's a pic of mine:

Apexi WS Sport - 380-400$ .. most quiet / conservative aftermarket exhaust
Stillen - Looks nice, expensive.. has a "drone" at idle and on acceleration.. people find it quite annoying..
Greddy - aggressive looking, big tip.. loud.. around 450$?
OBX - Looks identical to the Greddy, more quiet, and a .5" smaller tip... but the cost is under 300$!


clear winner - OBX
listen to araffio, get them while they are hot..

Try checking on www.Ebay.com, i think there might be a GD for the OBX in the GD forum. Check with www.adventon.com for the Apexi WS but do you have a 95-96? if not you'll have to add an O2 sensor bung and it will be about 2" shorter under the back bumper.

i have the GReddy EVO on my 99 max and i love it. it looks agressive and it sounds great. but then again, i only have experience with GReddy. i've never tried any other exhausts. a friend has the stillen one and it sounds nasty. you can get the greddy for under $500.

OBX- 2.5" SS piping, 4.0" tip
Greddy SP- 2.5" aluminized piping, 4.5" tip

Not sure about the Apexi WS, but I think it has 2.25" piping.

THanks for all the help. I think I will have it between the OBX and the greddy sp. I saw for sale and the highest bidder was $260. He said he had it on the car for 1 1/2 years or so. I may look into that. Thanks for tellin me about the stillen. I was going to go with that. But if people have heard the exhaust and its nasty, then I dont want it. Like I said before, I have heard a video of a Greddy, and it seemed nice and quiet, but with a little tone. I haerd the intake over the mufffler. Thanks agian
Where do you find the OBX one?

Blitz CatBack exhaust System

I don't mean to make for a more difficult decision but I just came accross a CatBack system from Blitz. Its the BLITZ REALIZE TT CAT. BACK EXHAUST available at adventon.com for $466. Has anyone had any experience with this, sound, durability, anything...I also don't want anything loud and nasty.
This link should take you there

I have the Greddy Sp and I like how it look and sounds. It's not that loud and it only drones around 2k to 3k. Although, the only experience I have had with catbacks is with the greddy, you can't go wrong with it. I would keep a lookout in the for sale forum. Sometimes, u can get a good deal on one.

I would go with a warpspeed b-pipe and your choice of muffler. Great sound and performance for half the price. And you wont have the same system as everyone else
