after a good amount of research and searching and reading, ive decided to get a new Apexi WS exhuast for my lude and sell my Tanabe Racing Medalion.
not that the TRM is too loud here but my tastes have just changed and i want to be as silent as possible now... not standing out from the crowd kinda way. guess im getting old or somthing
anyways, does anyone know wheres the cheapest place i can find a WS?
also, those who have a WS, give your comments of pros and cons while ur at it

I don't have a WS but I did a lot of research before I got a Mugen (local, used, from a friend =)
The WS, like most Apex'i exhausts, has a problem with hanging low. It's not full stainless, but then against most exhausts aren't either (and how often do you look at the piping anyway?)
I love it! It's soooooooooo quiet and smooth it's meant for the car. It has a nice hum that's most likely a little louder then stock in VTEC and at say like 1500-2000 RPM's. At cruising it's magical how quiet it is. I wasn't into the big tip at first but it fits pretty nice and seemed to have grown on me. The only quirk is the b pipe does sit lower then I'd like. After the winter I may have mine worked on to fit PERFECT but it only scrapes occasionly on bad driveways.
back on topic here... anyone know where i can get the WS for a god price???

i got mine for 385 shipped anywhere, email this guy and ask him if he's still selling them, tell him jesse from nj, referred u..btw he's the guy from groupbuycenter.com tmc_racing_llc@hotmail.com
I like my Apexi WS exhaust. Like you said, it doesn't attract attention. I also can pass by a po-po w/ no problem. They are pretty strict in Glendale and Burbank.
Tanabe makes the Hyper Medalion in stainless steel now. It's pretty much the same as the WS I believe (not straight through). There's an ad in the newest Super Street that shows it.

ive thought of the hyper med. but im in a very tight budget at the moment.... plus i think the WS is quieter than the HM.

so it seems the only good place i can find a deal online is through GBC....
anyways, while on topic of the TRM, does anyone know if my TRM (for an base auto), will fit an SH too? i need someone to be totally sure to tell me here because i dont want to sell it to an SH owner to only find that it wont fit right. thanks!

it wont directly fit, it will fit w/ slight modification. I think its either too short or too long?
