Hey Arith,
Your new K2 Neo-specs sound very tough. Sounds deeper and louder than your K2 quad tips. Any performance difference between the two? Great work by the way.

I don't know whether the Spec-Neo Duals (quad tips) were straight through or not, but there is a performance difference between the two. I find the Spec-Neo (single tip) not only gives a louder note, but feels more free flowing (smaller mufflers so I guess greater flow?)

I don't know whether it's the ECU and the honeymoon period after I install a new mod, or perhaps even a placebo effect because I want something to feel improved, but so far seat of pants dyno tells me response is quicker and power flow throughout the range is smoother and increased torque.

Just hate giving up the quad tip appearance. Perhaps a skilled muffler person can custom fit quad tips to these.

I haven't seen either muffler or exhaust system in real life, but the muffler body on the Neo-spec looks smaller than the body of the Neo-spec duals. The piping may be a different size as well. Great that you got some performance gains to go with the different looks.

Both systems look awesome. The single fat tip definitely looks tougher and looks like you mean business. The quad tips are more subdued. Quad tips do look nice, very reminiscent of M5 and M3. Both systems nice in their own way.

Your Apexi's are up in the Exhaust Clip section! Dark as heck and I can't really tell if it's really you. For all I know it could be an angry bear. :D
