N1s are pretty good stuff. IMO the sound is only okay, not great. However, that appears to be a knock-off of Apex-i's N1. If it was a catback that used a genuine Apex-i muffler, I'd say go for it, but the knock-off's sound deadening material will probably deteriorate quickly and leave you with a buzzy ricer sound. I say go BRM, Stromung, or NISMO.

One of my friends is running an N1 knock-off on his 200sx, it sounds fine... and is a pretty decent deal for the price. I cant say how long it will last for certain - but his has been installed and working fine for around 6 months now.

I can't say I am really a fan of knock-off products for the most part but that is not to say all of them are bad. Generally speaking though knock-off products are made of cheaper quality materials.

I would say go with something more name brand to be on the safe side and if it is all stainless then all the better cause you will run into a rusting and oxidation problem somewhere down the road otherwise unless you take care of the problem and coat the metal up front.

BRM, Stromung, HKS, Greddy, Tanabe, 5Zigen all make exhausts for the Sentra and should be of good quality. But I have been known to be a brand whore so I may be a little bit biased to a degree.

I run a HKS can on mine with custom 3" piping from the cat-back and it sounds great. It sounded much better than my 5Zigen Fireball can with 2.5" custom piping all the way back which I ran n/a.
