Noob exhaust question.

[purge]

Exactly how little bends can one have in their catback on the s13? I hope this question hasn't been asked too many times, but I'm going to have a custom pipe bent for my car and I'd like to be able to tell him exactly where I want it bent. I'm looking for as straight as possible, any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks.RED-

JIC makes exhausts that are pretty freaking straight, look up pictures of them and maybe youll be able to tell.

Check out a picture of the RSR Ex-Mag GTII on phase2motortrend.comIt's almost completely straight!

i think the GTII has one bend

The Apex'i N1 Single is also very straight and widely available.

Don't buy Apex. Welds rust after a few years. I had one that did it, and I have read plenty of internet horror stories. The biggest limitation to a straight exhaust is if you use a resonator, and the size of it. My HKS has a HUGE resonator, so it needed to be a little bent to fit it under the car.

This is 100% untrue with the new Apex'i N1 EVO that's being sold now. It is now a full stainless exhaust, no problems with welds rusting. You'll get the same results and could find a catback for about $400, instead of ~$500 like the rest.

Yeah, I think your best bet is to find an exhaust you like and try to copy the pipe routing.
