i got my WS a few months ago now, Definetly A+. The polished muffler looks insane, at the same time it isnt loud either> actauly its alot like stock and sounds pritty much excatilly as described above.

I had some fitting probs. it sat up too high and rattled against the body. I just had my buddy (he did the installer) take it off heat the hangers up and bend em so they were a bit lower. Done, problem solved. The fitting problem was minor, its still worth every penny!!.

Both I think are about the same, now just get the one that will fit your buget. I payed $300 for mine, idono how much the thermal one is.

Another thing I like about the WS is the tip, very slick and I love the way they put the Apex-i logo on both sides of the tip.
My car is droped on coil overs about 1.5-2.0 and I really have no new scraping problems which I would incounter with the stock setup.

Wow, after posting this thread and not hearing anything for a couple days I forgot about it... but thanks for all the info guys...

Anyway, based on your feedback it looks like this will be the way to go for me. A car is not fun if you have to granny it over every little dip in the road.

I also read that the World Sport 2 is coming out soon. If I knew when for sure I might hold out for that..

Im sure that it really has no real difference. I was going to wait till it would come out also after seeing it on the Apex-i site. But it had no release date on the site, so I really could not wait any longer.
All the site said about the new WS was that it was 50 state legal. But anything that happens after the cat has no effect on smog, other then that I have no idea what is the difference.


All I have about the WS #1 is that its a very slick and atractive Cat back that does not have that RICE sound to it, but a true sports car sound.
