Good Exhaust for a Dialy Driver?

[-GSX-Falcon]

I have searched on this subject and seen LOTS of differing opinions. Alot of them have to do with the persons goals for times. I have a 92 GSX auto as my daily driver. Im not looking to upgrade too much, maybe to a 14b in the distant future. Plus what i have now, which are just cheap mods. Im looking for a system that will give me good spool up but not be too loud, yet can be heard. Again this will not be a racer...just bring it to a track now and then for some fun. Im looking at the Buschur 2.5" for a few reasons.

1) It can bolt on to my stock cat

2) It looks nice

3) Is said to be fairly quiet

4) Fairly cheap

Is my reasoning sound or should i look for something else?

If you are looking for something cheap, you might want to consider a pacesetter catback. They arent the best thing on the earth, but they only cost like $200 and they sound really nice. I had one on my car when I bought it, and I thought I would hate it and not be able to wait to get it off the car, but I've come to kind of like it. The Buschur is a BIG step up from this, but if you are just looking for something that isn't too loud and your not going to be racing then you might wanna check these out.

Muffler shop or your own from mandrel bend pipe coupled with atleast one resonator and a magnaflow or dynomax muffler!

Apex N1. Looks the best IMO, sounds the best (even with no cat, reasonably quiet till WOT), not too expensive (around $450-$500 for full catback).

Check out www.rnrracing.com and look at their cat-back systems. A standard 2.5" cat back is only 270 and it's 320 with a SS muffler. I have their 2.5" turbo-back with a high-flow cat. and the SS muffler and it cost me 650 shipped. I had a local shop put a tip on it , but I did it more for show than anything else.

As far as sound, I get a nice deep rumble while I'm idling and it's pretty quiet at highway speeds. The only time it gets a little loud is when I jump on it and even then the exhaust note stays deep. The best part is when I go to the parking garage and go through at 2K and set off car alarms.

Wait, I thought 92GSX already comes stock with 14B turbo.

the thermal system is exactly all of that. super quiet deep and will bolt to the stock cat, and its polished.

the SS muffler is a straight through design, the normal muffler is chambered. You want to have straight through.
