which one do u recommend

apexi n1 dual
RS*R GT2
HKS hi power
borla true dual

which one would you recommend.
i consider HP and Tourque gain. maybe 50% louder than stock. High flow for later turbo app(willing to sacrifice some back press for now).
Looks dont matter, they all look nice lol hopefully it'll look nice on a kenstyle rear bumper.

Does anyone actually have these? can I get some opinions?

Thanks

Neither. Point being that when and if you get a turbo kit, the style and design of the exhaust that you may have to/want to use...might be different and you are going to have to buy another one anyhow.

If you just want to blow the $1500 for an exhaust....then to me...its not worth it. All you are buying is noise. No real HP gains. Spend that cash in making the engine more durable when you actually get the turbo kit. Or just save the cash for the kit itself.

However....I am asuming that you have $1500 that you just want to blow. If so...then just get the HKS Hi Power version. It is supposed to be a true dual exhaust and according to HKS, has enough flow to support a forced induction setup. The Apexi N1 and RSR are great exhausts but flows from a 2 into 1 into 2, with a 3" mid pipe. Would be good enough for about 400wHP roughly.

Just my $0.00002 cents worth of thought and opinions. But then again...opinions are like @$$holes....everyones got one.

Depending on what you want at the end...go from there. Dont waste your time just getting parts because you want to be differnent then change them out again when you find something else. Waste of hard earned cash. I changed my exhaust twice...rims three times...and going to possibly changing my brake system twice. So I am burning cash in a way that I didnt want to as well. Ahhh but live and learn.

You might want to think about a custom setup. Choose your mufflers and have a shop bend the pipes (size) of your choice.

i 2nd this. HKS td ti is not worth it. go with a single exhaust. JIC would be a great choice. not ricey sounding, and yields good gains. of course a little low end low, but increasing mid - high.

for $0 just disconnect your rear muffler section and have someone weld up an exhaust tip on a piece of 45` bent pipe. Instant hi flow ghetto exhaust.

By the way it sounds pretty good too...

should I start with headers and downpipes first? i was thinking of going with a test pipe then headers since exhaust has to be changed around when i get turbo. but I think i want to get recon first then get a turbo system. I duinno if turbo passes recon . sorry for being so newb.

Dont even bother with headers if you are going to go the turbo route. With the assumption of not the Turbonetics Single turbo.

Anyhow, most systems have their own headers to use with the system. So dont bother with getting headers if you are going to boost the car.

A turbo kit should pass recon assuming its CARB legal I believe.

Look into the Forced Induction sections. They will be able to answer more in depth.

if you do get an exhaust and have the kenstyle rear bumper you also should do some research to see if it will fit as well
