Very Confused
Hello All. My name is Adam. I am new on this forum. I've had my car for about 8 monthes. its a 2001 White/Ebony CL type S. I have AEM CAI, and OBX RACING HEADERS. I am about to purchase some new cat back exhuast. I am more confused on this mod.
I am debating between the APEXi WS 2 for $589, or the GReddy EVO 2 for $799. If anyone can help, i am wondering:
1. Sound of both cars at IDLE
2. Sound of both cars cruising, which is loud, which sounds stock
3. Which has more hp gains
4. Which looks stock
If anyone can help, please do. i will check back later. thanks all.

Any aftermarket exhaust system you buy for your CL-S will give you at most 2hp. The stock exhaust piping & mufflers are very efficient. In other words, don't buy the exhaust if you're doing it to get more power - it's not gonna happen!
I'll let others chime in for your other questions!

I prefer the Apex'i's, but that's cause i'm a bit biased. =P.
In honesty, neither of them look even close to stock. The apex'i tips are pretty huge w/ a big canister, and the Greddy's are even huger with no canister. They both look pretty pimp though. I say get the greddy's. The apex'i canisters get rock dents kinda easy =/ but I still love 'em.
The Greddys are louder. the Apx's are almost close to stock. you can hear the drone, but it's subtle. that's what I like about 'em.
If you want to get a good sorta stock look, look into Comptechs, or magnamuff mufflers, which are basically slightly larger comptechs.

I personally would go with the Greddy....Mainly because it doesn't sound too ricey plus it has a good humm to it also..when in idle and when driving around it sounds very aggressive... The gains are about the same...if your looking for the best gains I would personally consider Comptech, which is what I have and I'm completely satisfied...
