Gday guys,

Im interested in this system as it is suppose to improve mid-range torque, and having the twin mufflers I also assume it would be a little quieter than most 3" systems.

It is suppose to have a 65mm (2.5") inlet from the cat to 2 70mm (2.75") pipes. So the twin pipes sound fine at their size, but the initial 65mm inlet seems like a bit of a restriction on the whole system

Has anyone had any experience with this system, or what are your thoughts on it.

Although I don't have this system, I do have a dual N1 Kakimoto...

Quiet it is NOT! I would say around 95db or so and a small hint of resonance around 3.5rpm. It is a 75mm inlet, splits into twin 65mm pipes (each one with a tiny little resonator each) and runs through to twin 100mm canon tips. It sounds pretty grunty down low and opens up into a really racey growl.

I would expect the Apexi to be quieter though as it is mild steel piping and has a large middle muffler/resonator that both pipes run through. I have seen these for sale on ebay for a pretty reasonable price ~$1150.

    • Don't do what I did, use a 300000km old housing with billet gears. The old pump probably was clearanced with saw dust, Edward Lee's special engine treatment sauce and a good odo wind back. I had oil pressure issues, then replaces pump with new housing, new billet gears and 2x track day later binned a motor due to other oil related issues due to a previous engine builder. Long story short, buy a M2 or 3 or 4 N55/S55/S58 and enjoy life.
    • Yeah. "New pump" does not have to mean "massive pump".
    • Well, can you still get an OEM pump, and by the time you're buying a Nismo/N1 etc, just buy another aftermarket pump. It's better to have the pump able to flow more if its needed, than for your pressure to drop off. At any point in time, you're replacing the oil pump in a rebuild. Aftermarket pumps are likely going to be a better economical choice, and they don't have any negatives, even if they can flow more.   Also, when you're saying "replace the pump gears" are you meaning leave a 25+ year old housing in the engine with unknown wear, and just put new gears in? As that sounds silly to me, especially if you do have that minute amount of wear, that means your new pump gears now have a little bit more clearance beside them, which means, whelp, you may not get to build a lot of oil pressure or make a lot of flow.
    • Right, but if you replace the pump gears + put a spline or sine drive gear on the crank on a Nismo/OEM/N1/etc pump at that point do you really still want more flow/oil pressure? Let's say this is a the aforementioned "keep it simple" build, no more than ~400 kW at the crank.
    • Strength. And on the early RB26, full engagement of the pump drive.
