good catback for KA24DET?

Hey. I'm running a downpipe, test pipe and STOCK catback! It sucks. Lol. Anyway, I need exhaust advice. I was thinking about either the Blitz NUR-Spec or the HKS Super Dragger..I think thats what it is. It's the BIG f'n exhaust. I know everyone says Apex-i N1 Dual..but i think those are ugly. Sorry guys, speed AND style.

N1 dual's aren't the best for turbos. Your choices are really good but you may want to look into 5 Zigen, APEX'i N1 single, or Fujitsubo (if ya got the cash).

GP sports, Single Apex'i N1's, and the Apex'i GTspec (3.74) if you have a fairly good size turbo, if not just go with anything close to 3inch.

My friends were telling me to get the GT-spec..but I'm thinking it would be ungodly loud. Lol. I like a nice, loud exhaust and all..but those days I wake up with a hangover, the last thing i wanna hear in the morning is a damn near 4" exhaust rattling my brain. I have a T3 turbo on my KA right now. It's not that big or anything, but It gets the job done. Does the GT-spec come with a silencer (not like i'd use it a lot). Thanks

Well, ive decided pretty much on the Blitz NUR-spec. The cheapest I've found it was $560 w/out shipping on PDM Racing. Im looking for the S13 fastback exhaust. Has anyone seen it cheaper? Thanks a lot.

$550 from www.heavythrottle.com also figure how much less shipping from NY is than Canada.

What the point if it's bigger than your downpipe? Waste of money IMO.

Well, after trying to order the Apex GT a number of times and nobody having it, I ordered the HKS Super Drager II. It was cheap and sounds good..plus its HKS Anyone know where I can get a 3" downpipe for a KA? Do you think I could take mine off and take it to an exhaust shop or something and have them bend me a copy but in 3"?
