Has anyone heard or seen an sc300 with the apexi megaphone dual exhaust?

never heard it but it should be ok but if you are turbo that maybe a little too small.

I just put that exhaust on a customers car, and like evreything else apex, its KILLER! SOunds fnatastic, I would use it even with a turbo car due to its sound. My rep told me they were discontinued and only had 2 left in the country. Id advise you to hop on this.

I just bought one and have it sitting in my garage I was taking a chance because I've never seen pics of heard it either.

It's going on my SC400 tomorrow
Apexi Hybrid Megaphone for JZZ30/SC300. I have to chop off a bit of my factory piping on my SC4 to make it fit. Y pipe is 2.75 to 2 1/4 x2. Piping is 2 1/4. I bought the 3rd last one. As of May 6th , Apexi USA had 2 left in their warehouse.

EDIT: That is the same seller I bought from. Those are not actual pics. Their communication was decent and took about 2 weeks from purchase to arrival. Good luck.

sorry thats all I have for now but I will take some more tommorrow if I can get it installed. Not pictured is a 12" ~ Y pipe that connects to your factory piping.

Part # is 115-T003
Looks like its being replaced with the WS muffler?

Do you have a # for that company? I want to make sure they still have 1 left before I order it.

I think your best bet is to just call Apexi directly because thats what raceoptions will do. Sorry I don't have raceoptions phone #.
Price was great though at about 650 US shipped

apexi's phone # is : (714) 685-5700
raceoptions email: raceoptions@gmail.com

(However you can go through any Apexi dealer)

raceoptions didn't take down their ebay sale even though I bought one from them.

What matters is if the warehouse has any left. Act fast before they are gone.

That looks nice. It's a good exhaust for someone trying to keep the factory style look. I wonder how it sounds.

Yep go them on today.
They are a pain to install on SC400. The center resonator (cat in Cali) has to be cut off. A custom pipe had to be made. Sounds much deeper and more aggressive. A very nice change from stock but doesn't drone and will definitely not get any cop attention.
Oh and the butt dyno feels like at least 10-15 whp ! I am impressed! I think my stock exhaust system was really restricting my car.

I'll take some pics of it tommorrow. Fills up the holes in the JIC lip perfectly!
