My pleasure. Sorry for causing confusion. Please post here when you have received it and let us know what you think it has done for performance, sound, quality of manufacturing etc.

Mr. UPS came by today. I opened the package and overall I am pleased. Very pleased considring the price. The test pipe resonator has a perforated core and sound absorbing material so hopefully, it will quiet things up a bit. My only issue is the welds aren't perfect. I will post pics so you can be the judge. The flanges are beefy (about 8mm). But when you line up the flanges from the downpipe to the test pipe they touch in the middle but kind of bow out at the bolt holes. I am guessing it is designed this way so that when you add the gasket and bolt them together they come together. But I have not installed an exhaust b4 so i don't know for sure. I will take pics this evening.

Sounds cool. However I am still gonna go with a Blitz downpipe. Mostly because I have a Nur Spec R, but for some reason all my stainless stuff cracks. Even the real expensive stuff. However I will be getting the projectsilvia straight pipe.

I put on my straight pipe today. Pretty good quality, doesn't have perfect welds, but its a ss straight pipe. Make sure you have bolts and nuts when you do this. Make sure they are long enough. pictures will be taken shortly.....

Thanks for the info Silguy. I just ordered my Blitz LM, Blitz dp, projectsilvia straight pipe, and projectsilvia pulley set from them. I'll let you know what I think of the pulleys when they arrive. BTW: when I talked to Robert today, he said the same pulleys will for s13 with a washer that they are making, and will be available soon.

Ok....I just bought the Apex N1 3inch catback. The section right before the resonators hits this bolt under the car. The pipe rubs on this bolt constantly and creates this annoying noise while driving and especially when the car is started. I'm wondering if anyone else has this problem w/ the N1. It's tolerable, but im pretty sure that place will rust easier...blah blah..... Heres the picture of the bolt hitting it.

it sounds awesome. Not loud at all. I'm real picky on this "loud exhaust" thing. So far, on my KA sounds great. Nice and deep. The N1 is SUPER quiet.
