    Any big/noticable differences between WS2 and SP2?

    I'm looking at getting a new exhaust, currently have a skunk2 exhaust, and the amount of noise it makes, is starting to get to me. I've been looking into the Apexi WS2, and the Greddy SP2, and was wondering if there were any BIG differences between them, besides, the price? (I think the WS2 is about 100 cheaper then SP2). Which one is quieter, and by how much? (is the difference even noticable?) How loud is each one at WOT? How loud at just cruising? Thanks in advance

    go to meineke ask them for a Volt catologue pick a nice fartcan from there. have meneike weld up a 2.5 inch exhaust for you. i have 2.5 in turbo back and it sounds very sexy with no muffler or cat.

        I could be wrong but i feel the WS2 would be quieter and more restrictive... At least muffler wise I think the greddy is more straightthrough, free flowing while my WS2 is larger, not straight through attempting to dampen the sounds more. I wouldnt change it out for anything (my ws2) personally but i wanted quiet and a bit of power increase... knowing the greddy would be louder i chose mine well and i got it new for $300 heh...
        Not sure the size on the greddy pipes but the ws2 is quite large in my opinion for an NA car, although this = scraping.
        Anyone else?

          I hate my WS2 muffler. It is to quiet for my taste right now. Anyone want to swap? Less than 4months old!
          PS piping = 60 mm.

            so the ws2 'noise' is comparable to stock exhaust?

                I'll more then likely go with the ws2 then. how much louder is the sp2 though? i heard from someone else, that the sp2 (on a teg) sounded like a g35 exhaust. any truth to this? if thats the case, that isn't that loud either.

                  I didnt know they made the SP2 for our year yet. I know they make them for the 94-97 but havent seen them for ours, at least where ive been looking. I ended up with the EVO2 cause it was the closes i could find. Now i know they make the SP for our car but its not full stainless but good luck. I say go with greddy. Thats just my 2cents.

                    I'm not opposed to getting the sp2 if it's got a little sound, i'm just tired of my skunk2 exhaust. Drones too much, when just doing normal driving. Get tired of it on my 20 minute drives to and from school on the freeway. As long as the sp2 isn't like that, and only semi-loud when at WOT, then thats fine. the ws2 seems like it'd be TOO quiet, even when at WOT. Anyone have any sound/video clips of their cars with the ws2 or sp2?

                        I'll check it out. I like the look of both exhaust systems, both resemble the stock look. How does the sp2 sound?

                          Greddy sp2 sounds really good on WOT but i like the evo 2 better for sound performance and looks! But either one is ok, the ws2 is really to quiet, if your going to get the ws2 might as well get the stock exhaust! And i heard that the ws2 piping and resonator hang really low and your going to scrap speedbumps and other stuff when lowered.
