Mine started hitting the gas tank but I just installed an exhaust hanger between the tank and the pipe.

It goes away after awhile. OR you can get a higher temp hanger.

how is the APEXi N1's sound. I want something loud but not 2 loud but i want it to have a nice semi deep tone. I don't want anyuthing that sounds like a dirt bike motor is in my car. I also wanted to know how the power gains on the N1 are and are there any other exhuast systems that would better compensate my needs? h0LLa at ya boy!!!

if ur running SOHC Y8 engine... the greedy evo has a sweet sound... deep... but at the same time... if ur going up hill or just simply trying to floor it during 2nd gear... u will feel the car is not going anywhere.... till u hit pass 5K RPM then maybe u'll feel like the car is faster... other than that u'll feel that the back pressure flowing through it faster than super spicy korean food from last night turbocharging out the ass! sorry for the vivid image... very crazy at work now... and trying to take a break... sigh~

hahaha....very true, but much difference up high, and if you're into it, it takes nothing to stay where the power is.

werd. with greddy evo on a Y8 engine.. the car felt alive after 4800rpm. with the apexi ws i have now on my y8 engine... it feel alive when it's at 4500rpm. on a short ram and i floor it.. then it' around 4800rpm. other than that... the rest is just a can of bumble bees humming.
