Default Apexi N1-X Exhaust

Finally received my APEXi N1-X Exhaust Today

I plan to install next week and will definitely post some videos.

Here's a few teaser pictures for now.

The quality looks great and the burnt tips is a nice touch. I've used APEXi brand products before in my Honda/Acura days and have always been please with their quality, sound and performance gains.

I got the exhaust through Vip Auto Salon in Cali. I think they're one of the main distributors for Apexi in the USA.

lol thank you for pointing that out. I can't wait to hear it... then I have to decide between this and other offering(s).

From the Apexi Site:

Resonated
Weight: 58.85 lbs
Sound Level: 92.2 dB @ 4,500 RPM

Non Resonated (Race):
Weight: 55.40 lbs.
Sound Level: 95.7 dB @ 4,500 RPM.

I wonder how much the HP gain difference is between the two models.

Here's a great write up. It's short and sweet explains a few things. You can scroll down to resonators.
