If it's brand new and tax in, then you're getting a great deal. with tax you're looking at 690, which is still cheap.

way to go... by the time you get other stuff... bolts, hangers, gaskets... whatever... it usually rounds itself up anyways

I can't remember if my exhaust came wth hangers. It came with gaskets, though. But you'll need a new one at the downpipe i think.

Yes that's a great deal for that exhaust, the retail in CAD is about $800.00.

Custom.....compared to an APEXi, there is no comparison....I have yet to hear any custom exhaust come close to sounding like a "real" cat-back system, never mind an APEXi. You have to remember "you get what you pay for". These systems have been "designed" by people with usally an engineering background, not "joe" from some exhaust shop the fitted some pipes together with a muffler on the end. (I'm not knocking anyone who runs/works for an exhaust shop - but they exactly what I'm saying). Customs are great for V8's but thats about it when compared to a real company mass produced exhausts for imports.

StreetWyze,
Thanks . I never knew that.

I always never thought of it like that due to my civic being slow. So I figured that the companies making them for our cars...would not put much effort into it, and are only out for money. I always thought profit margins ruled.

Thnx tho. I do really like the apexi ws2.I'm just poor

Yep, you are absolutly right, I am sorry about the "its not a WS2" , I was reading out of my last years book :cry: Yes you are right, the WS2 is out for several applications. So anyways...............
