Budget, bang-for-the-buck wise, the Apex'i.

Performance-wise, it's a wash.

Exclusivity and baller-status wise? ATLP FTW.

 

isnt apexi a bit quite compared to any other exausts out there?

 

Lol forget baller status I have to little girls my tl is my hobby but if either is worth it I'll drop the cash

I mean does anybody know the gains for both?

 

ATLP has the most gains at around 10-11 whp/wtq.

Apexi isn't that far behind I think.

 

How does the Tanabe Hyper Medallions compare to the above mentioned?

 

Sorry to hi-jack the thread but what other exhaust systems are out there for the TL?

 

^^^theres also tsudo exhaust, but there are not gains for that

 

holly n00bs!!!


I believe at the top of this page there is a button that says SEARCH... you guys should give that a shot

 

 

well apexi ws2's are chemical coated to give the chrome look, as opposed to the fully stainless steel ATLP's. After a while the ws2's may lose its shine. i think the atlp's sold out... gotta wait for someone to sells...

looks, performance, sound go to the ATLP, but if you're on a budget it's out of the question.

 

you didn't mention budget, so the ATLP of course

 

...fail

 

 

you just sayin that cause you got one...i wish somebody had the Ws2's to really get this going

 

let me take pics tomorrow
the biggest thing i don't like about it is the mid pipe (from cat to mufflers) is painted and not polished or even full stainless all the way back (see every time it is on the lift)
but anyways it is pretty quite/hardly noticeably from the outside unless of course you go WOT then it gets some noise
then inside it, you can easily get use (?wrong word?) to it except for the 2k-3k drone which is kinda hard to avoid, but also when ever my mom gets in the car she says it is loud

BTW: i didn't buy it, it came with the car, so can't really complain too much

 

my bad.. didn't read it correctly LOL ..

in that sense.. i take my words back.. the apexi ws 2 (:

 

lol i may have a biased opinion, but i stated facts of both sides, your welcome.

 

What makes you say that? (your avatar)

 

My apex'i exhaust (normal camera's battery was dead, so this is with my cell phone):


don't mind the filthy car, it just snowed yesterday, and the roads are still wet:


from rear:


from the driverside:

 

Tanabe is also full stainless steel. I love mine. Cheaper than the ATLP too. I don't like the looks of the tips on the ATLP my

 

you got pics of your setup i looked it up and found it here

I'll PM you with pics after I get it cleaned up! For now, just imagine that pic but with a y pipe and an identical muffler.

 

Cool...All i need is pics, the money is waiting
