Apexi World Sport exhaust and a "Y"?

Anyone have the Apexi World Sport exhaust and a "Y" pipe set up? What does it sound like Idling, reving and normal street driving. I hear some say it's quiet.

yes it is quiet at idle, normal driving, and reving. You cant even hear it over an intake after 3000 rpms.

Are you serious? So how does it differ from stock exhaust?

I don't want to be stuck with an exhaust drone on the highway (<3000 rpm). I've heard the Apex-I WS catback is the most quiet catback around but it is still louder than stock. I'd like to get more insight on this, please do explain in a bit more detail.

Thanks.

Don't let them fool you its not as quiet as stock, its not as loud but it sounds like a 96 BMW 3 series but not as loud. Atleast thats what mines sounds like.

It is a little bit louder than stock but not much. If you are in the car and have the radio on you will barely, barely be able to hear it. If you are standing behind the car when it is being revved, it has a nice deep throaty tone to it. On the Highway there is some drone but no where near what civics have. All my friends love it because it is so quiet. Hope that helps

Matt, what type of highway drone are you talking about? If we're talking about 2500 - 2800 rpms, can you describe the drone? The one thing I love about my Max is how silent it is when I'm on the highway.

I really want to get the WS but I wish I knew how much of a drone we're talking about.

And yes, it does help ... do let me know about the drone around the 2500 - 2800 rpms please.
