Got my apexi ws exhaust installed....
... and it fawking snowed last night too:madfawk:
i have to say this is so damn quiet, i hope it gets a little more sound over time. power seems to be much better in the low-mid range. having it in too high of a gear seems to be easier to deal with instead of down shifting. i have yet to feel the top end, but VTEC is so much quieter now which kinda sucks.
it was a biatch to install since i got an h22 and a S/T rear sway bar. it took 3.5 hrs and they had to cut a piece of the exhaust out and weld in a new piece to get around the sway bar. that really sucked to do that, but it was the only thing he could do.the nice thing is the pipe does not slam into the sway bar and i think it gave me better clearance too.
yes i know:wopics:
we'll take pics of it at the meet in two weeks.

quiet is great after a while, believe me...you don't want to be that loud after a long period of time! You will learn to like having a slightly quieter exhaust than the masses.
ESPECIALLY if you really want a true "Sleeper" (which in which case you'd keep a stock-looking muffler)

^yeah 3 years of a loud ass custom exhaust definetly gets to you. i'll miss my stock looking dual tips though. a 4 inch tip hardly looks stock, but the sound does at least.

i don't think i'll have any problems since i live up the street from the police station and never got pulled over before with my loud exhaust.
