hey guys,
this is probably a repost but its defiently newer. Im looking to get a full catback soon. I just wanted to see what everyone else had and what their opinions were. Im really looking at the SP2 or Apexi WS2(i think its called) I hear they are the most liked out of all of them. Just post your exhaust setups and your opinion on it. If you have videos/sound clips feel free to post them! OH! and also fitment issues and pictures!

Thanks

Sean

 

Hey Im the first to vote... being that I picked the SP2 because of the Greddy name and the fact that everyone I spoke to about the Sp2 love it (Not too Ricy a sound, 1.5 mm piping, 304 Full Stainless Steel catback) And the fact that they had the original SP and now up graded to the SP2 shows that they made improvements that others just keep their original designs...

 

WSP y,b + fart cannon = teh loudness

 

what is it really?

 

wow...first of all the greddy is a 2.5 in fully mandrel bent catback exhaust. And its the Apexi WS(world series). Noobs. Yea, and the Greddy SP2 is the ish. I got it couled w/ PR CAI and WS y-pipe. Sounds gangsta

 

The Greddy is slightly under 2.5" diameter and believe it or not it is the world sport. That being said my vote is for the Cattman for perfect fit and excellent sound. The SP2 is a great alternative and I would probably have that if I didn't have the Cattman.

 

its actually apexi world sport

 

ive heard clips of the sp2 and cattmans, and i like them both... i think cattmans tip is more subtle, cant give you an exact size... sp2's is 4.5" and its noticable...

either way, im sure you'll like it...

 

hahaha apexi world series... ive never heard any clips of the apexi but i have a GReddy SP2 and i love it

 

Budget Y,B-pipe w/ resonator, and Flowmaster 40 muffler. Get something different than everyone else.

 

world series?

 

the greddy SP2 for the 97-99 max is out already?..i m still waiting for it so i bought the cattman catback..sounds great..great fitment but still waiting for the SP2 for my up coming 99 5spd max hopefully this week =] ...is the diameter realli 2.5in? not 3? i read it somewhere about the old greddy SP that the pipe is 3in in diameter....

 

Noo, the Greddy is under 2.5", but it is mandrel bent.

 

Yep, it's 60 mm tubing, which comes out to 2.36". The Apexi WS is the same for the axle-back portion, and it's only 50 mm from the cat to the muffler flange.

 

wat abt this kind.. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=7929522731 ... is this good

 

custom 2.5", before that, i think i had greddy something (ask supa lao, its his car )

 

apexi world series all the way.

 

the 1.5 mm was referring to the thickness of the pipe wall itself. correct me if i'm wrong anybody! didn't the BoSox and the Cards "make" the world series this year? hehe...

 

My Megan exahust fit perfect, is compeltely stainless and mandrel bent. The only caveat is that it's incredibly loud, I mean VERY loud. Other than that, no complaints ...

I will be switching the muffler to a dual tip style soon though, I just think it looks better than having a 4.5" round tip on the back of a family car

 

Nice. I got the same thing except with OEM b-pipe and magnaflow resonator. I like having differnet things than everyone else. Sounds good IMO. Does yours sound kinda raspy or not good when the engine is cold?

Mooney

 

SP2 all the way

 

sp2 hands down...so much better than my old custom b + magnaflow ss muffler setup

 

i saw that u recently got the SP2. How do you like it? How does it sound? im just looking for some feedback from owners. Any droning?

 

superturbo dynamax

 

love the way my apexi sounds

it is a bit short however for my 99...doesnt quite clear the bumper...ive heard you can customize it to do so however

 

He must be a Yankees fan and still in denial

As far as I know the Apexi is no longer made so good luck finding it. I've heard both but I'm partial to the SP2

 

Is There An Sp2 For The 99 I Would Love To Know Because I Will Buy It In A Second I Have A 99 And Have Been Waiting For This If Not I May Shell Out The Money To Have A Custom 2.5" With 4 Inch Exhausts Dual Pipes My Freind Works At An Auto Shop And Did My Cousins Audi S4 With Dual Exhaust !!! Let Me Know If I Should Wait

 

You mean like this?

 

use punctiation... please... besides your three exclamation marks...

the sp2 will fit your car... it already has a bung on the b-pipe, and it sticks out too far on the 95-96 bumper so it should fit perfectly for us... as far as the bends go, they should be the same right?

am i correct mike, or ricefob?

 

Does anyone have the Budget catback?

 

yes, im sure people with wrxs and matrixs have it... it isn't offered for us... although, it probably would be nice...

 

They offer the b-pipe, and I thought they could fabricate a rear section.

I'll call tomorrow.

I just so happen to have the stock rear section rust out on me yesterday so this thread came in handy.

 

yeah, they can fab one up for you... if you do get one, take pictures, and posibbly sound clips... i will get their b-pipe as soon as i get audio, and tires out of the way... i just don't know which rear section to put on there...

 

I will do that, I get inspection in december so i'll have something this month.

If the budget thing doesn't work out, where is a good spot to get the GReddy SP2, and do they make it for a 97. All I have seen are for 95-96.

 

sp2 from hopupracing.com is $500
sp2 from SWAW is $520

both prices shipped (according to maxmods)

im pretty sure that it will fit your car due to the bung on the b-pipe and the length of it... im awaiting conformation from someone... anyone...

 

Ant do u have 2 mufflers or is that extra pipe just for looks? Ive seen someone have the spare tire space hammered in so that an extra muffler would fit... Just wondering If anyone here had it... True dual exhaust...

 

No, I have one muffler with 2 outlets.

A true dual exhaust isnt one with just 2 mufflers. In that case the new Maxima, Accords, Mazda 6, etc would have true dual exhausts. A true dual exhaust is one where each bank of cylinders has its own manifold, downpipe, catalytic converter, and exhaust pipe all the way back.

 

You are correct sir. Here is a picture of the fitment on a '99:

 

my gosh... little close there dont ya think... i know thats not your max, unless you got a new one, but doesnt that rattle when going over bumps?

 

Greedy SP2 sound the best in my opinion
