congrats on your new setup, how loud does your apexi WS sound with the y-pipe?

honestly is a little loud but you forget it when you feel the power on wheels. I saw a lot of threads before order the catback..and this has deep sound and best if you compare with obx, hks, etc

Man I need a y-pipe! I have the 2.5 inch custom exhaust and I really don't feel the whole gain part. I'd imagine I need the y-pipe to really feel the love, right?!

just use your stock resonator combined with a somewhat quiet muffler, take it to a shop and have them fabricate the cat-back for you. I did this and it's not too loud at all.

I have the apexi catback and budget y. When I installed the apexi then the y, I found that the sound went up considerably.
The apexi by itself sounded awesome. When the y was installed with the apexi the sound that came out of the exhaust sounded more farty than like a beast. I really didn't like the sound at first but didn't care after the fact the y-pipe would kick my car into warpspeed when I drove.

yea, heard a couple sound files of the WS and it didnt sound amazing... i like the OBX sound more, but the 2.25 inch piping is too small IMO

i like the obx sound more to. The WS from my experience is to buzzy and not really deep.

SXN: We finally agree on something buddy
