JIC huh? Never new they had a single exhaust like the one I'm looking for. It's titanium, yet not $1000 like the Apexi ExTi, no AP purple can, I think we might have a winner! Does it angle outward?

How does it compare to the Greddy? It doesn't appear to have a mid muffler like the Greddy so it must be louder, right?

FYI I've had my car for almost 2 months. Within 2 weeks I installed an AEM cold air intake. I just had my DC Sports headers installed 2 weeks ago. Today I ordered my Berk HFC's.

What I'm getting at is I've got some time (at least 1-2 months) before I make a move on the exhaust. I appreciate everyone's help, I've learned a lot already. Now can we back on topic? JIC vs. Greddy? Other options?

I've already ruled out Agency Power (purple can) and Apexi ExTi (not paying $1000 for single system).

Yeah i noticed that was the one you quoted, i just cant really tell if thats rasp or just sound bouncing off the trees and other objects making it sound like it. What king TP's and y pipe are you running? Hows the drone on your setup? thanks.

I am looking for loud like AP, just don't want purple can. It's not that I want to stay "cheap", I just can't justify spending $1000 on a single exhaust system when all of the others are in the $500-$800 range. If the Apexi ExTi were in this price range, that's the way I would go, but ITS NOT. So it looks like it's either JIC or Greddy for me.

I'm trying to find out if either system comes out at an angle (I like the N1 look, I had an Apexi on my '98 Civic in high school), and which one is louder but no one is helping!

Right now stock exhaust with invidia test pipes. Been needing a new exhaust for some time but everytime i get some funds saved up something comes up. I wanted the motordyne but i just cant justify spending up to 1500 for an exhaust. Thinking about the megan drift spec and the intense y pipe or megan y pipe for cheap and call it a day on the exhaust portion. i think it would sound awesome and would be cheap as hell.

Is your car lowered? My biggest fear is the size of the canister and how low it will sit. Im going to be lowered at least 1 inch probably closer to 1.5 in the rear this year and i back into my driveway which isnt crazy steep just afraid i might have clearence issues. Have you ran into any problems?

I suggest staying away from any exhaust parts with flex piping. I switched out my Meagan y pipe with the Stillen. I no longer trust Intense Power. Their tps look like the ones on Ebay.

My Z isn't lower. I have have 20" wheels so I like the look and if I were to lower her, then I would go with 19" wheels coilovers, camber kit and everything else to do it right so I'll have to save up for that, lol.
