doesn't matter really. i got a miata (which has no sound insulation what so ever) with a test pipe and a 5zigen catback which is loud.

You are not going to see MAJOR gains from catback to catback.



Apex'i N1 is straight through but loud and annoying. Racing Beat is quiter, but will not flow quite as much.



Really not much difference.

Hey I got a question on some rediculous catback exhausts.. Has anyone heard a FEED exhaust yet?? How about an RE Amemiya?? First off, the FEED exhaust looks CRAZY, and I have a feeling it's obnoxiously loud. On the other hand the RE Amemiya exhaust I've heard is very quiet and high flowing (At least that's what JT-Imports says). Both are titanium, lavishly priced, and Rotary Xecret7 told me that they don't believe anyone in the U.S. has an RE Amemiya exhaust!! Very believable after I heard of the $3400.00 price tag!! But imagine that FEED, or RE Amemiya exhaust blasting that rotary note as your tach climbs higher and higher, knowing well that you are one of the few elite that own such a rare, JDM exhaust........... sigh.....

I had the Blitz Nur-Spec as well. At the time it was not only one of the cheapest, but one of only two completely stainless steel (from tip to tip) cat-backs I could find. The other was the Apexi GT series which was more than double the price of the Nur-Spec.



It seems like a lot of companies will claim a stainless steel cat-back when the piping or flanges are mild steel.

Too bad that neither one of those sound as good as the Border Burnout.
