I have the N1 on my 02 WRX and I love it. It looks great and sounds great, it's probably the most reasonably priced exhaust I have seen for WRX's. Plus the can is huge!

i have the evo2 and loooove it...great sound, not loud and looks aweomse. i wish it was a bit louder now but im happy how it is now with the hks downpipe i got on it. the helix is LOUD!!!! the apexi n1 is huge. I really like the perrin twin tip, and the aps exhausts. And if money isnt an issue, look into a titanium catback.

Helix hands down. The APEXi N1 ain't all that great. Power gains aren't as good as the Helix. Not to mention the Helix is full stainless, while the N1 is using mild steel pipes.

apexin1 = loudddd
helix = loudd but not as loud as apex
greddy evo2 = uber quiet like stromung/hush/perrin
you can get cheap greddy evo2 used for like 300

i have a helix turbo back, very nice deep loud boxer rumble and i love the way it sits on my car at a slight angled up degree.
