hahaha deja vu. i said the exact same thing. that new member section needs to be on the top so its unavoidable, its all tucked down there where no one can see it.

well from what i hear on the boards (i am still a noobie to this stuff too) the dual n1 is VERY loud. Unless you feel like setting some car alarms off, getting pulled by every cop you pass, and feel like paying stupid fix-it tickets (yes i have gotten some, and they are a pain in the rear) i would stick to a little more quiter exhaust, but aggressive one. you gonna swap the motor?

the dual n1 is a good exhaust. you get low-end torque. yeah its loud, but you have to compromse sometimes. it don't get really loud till 4500 prm.

you could buy alot of hp for what you pay for a veilside kit.........

Welcome to the site.

Nice whip for a starter. U should get the exhaust. Tune it up making sure everyting is working properly for reliable performance and then work the suspension. Don't worry bout looks till you can use the car's amazing chasis.

Ask away and our people will try their best to help you.

Welcome to the site! I hope you are able to find all of the information you need here.

I like the color of your car. I am just not to keen on the brown interior.

The common consensus for a N/A 240 exhaust is the Apex'i N1 dual.
