How much do you think i could sell my greddy evo for. It only has about 5000 miles on it without scratches or anything.
That's interesting, i had always heard that the evo was one of the more quieter catbacks. What are you thinking about switching her for then?

$ 325 is way too much to spend on a downpipe...a pipe is a pipe

Although the bellmouth design is nice you could have gotten the same pipe by a different company for much cheaper...but then again, you got it from Racing Zone

At a minimum, yes, the turbo to downpipe gasket should be replaced every time. Any gasket that has a raised "crush" area should be.

I was thinking maybe the apexi ws or the sp-2 but if anybody has any reccomendations feel free to state them...I want somthing with a smaller tip, maybe a dual tip.

Borla Hush has a dual tip and is very quiet from what I've heard...
