as far as I remember those are both Ricy loud, as you call it..lol

If you want a nice sound, then get a custom exhaust done with a good highflow cat and a few resonators... Maybe go with a magnaflo muffler, or if you like the can style mufflers, get one with a silencer.... if you really want a catback system, be prepared to spend over 8 bills for something decent..

You might be able to get a full custom exhaust done for around 500$ depending on how much you spend on the muffler... highflow cats are around 150$ ... check the clasifide section, i saw a guy selling the good ones for 100$... maybe find a used muffler.. then spend 200-250 on the custom install with 2 1/4' pipe all the way back... dont go any bigger than that if u dont plann on running turbo...

APEX WS is not a ricey exhaust in any way......Quiet and low profile. I think its a very nice exhaust.

contact lordm if you want the Apex WS. I think that many people have stated that it's quiet during normal driving(like stock). Low Rumble in open throttle. Excellent Catback that's not too restrictive. I would buy it if I had the money.

contact "lordm" on the TCC boards, he quoted me good prices and he has the stuff.

yah as long as shipping isnt anothe 350$ gotta watch for that, its a big thing on ebay for them to hike up shipping rates..

Ive heard sample audio clips of the comptech, it sounded really bad... they look good tho

I had the Apex-i WS catback on my old 1.6EL. I was more than happy with it. It sounds almost stock in normal low rpm driving, but still has a nice not overly loud tone when you really get on the gas.
