What exhaust to get for swap??? Options

[politicsareevil]

Alright so I was going to put my apexi N1 black muffler on when my swap was finished but.... that friggen expensive muffler got stolen by the dude who was doing my swap.... long story.. (he stole my apexi bov too)... Any way what muffler should I get... I am somewhat leaning towards the greddy SP2 muffler cuz Im starting to like the "stock" looking SP2.... Let me know what you would recomend for a muffler for my 3s swap what do you swap guys use and what would you recommend and why???

I really dont understand how anyone can recommend the 2.3in greddy sp on a turbo car.
Besides it being small, youll still need to pay an exhaust shop to make a midpipe for you.

This is true [and it answers your question for you Matt] but it does seem to do well on my car at low boost which I assume Matt will be running for a little while. It is very quiet, yet throaty, and a very nice, ultra low rice design. Mine has a really nice resonator on it too [pretty sure that's stock but IDK]. You will have to have a midpipe made to go between your downpipe and the catback, this is where I plan to mount my Magnaflow High Flow Cat.
My goals are probably pretty different from every other swapper - I want about 275WHP/300WTq with an electronic boost controller to get me to 300WHP with a little more boost when I need it and that's about it. I want this car to remain very streetable in all weather conditions. i don't intend to daily drive her but I'm not tryig to strip out the interior and put her on slicks either. I think the 2.5" piping will be fine for my short term goal of 250WHP with the corresponding WTq - please correct me if I'm wrong Lagos [you are one of the Pioneers after all].
Don't even get me started on the looks of the car - I'm extremely contrary to the popular opinions when it comes to that.

if you want quiet go with the greddy sp2. my sp1 is the same exact design and is very mellow

Got any good pics of that SP1? The ones in your profile don't show much. Under the car shot would be killer.
