My 98 sohc Neon needs a new muffler cuz the one i got now has a hole in it. i was looking at the apexi n1 muffler. i was wonder if any one has or knows where i can listen to a sound clip of it. if any one has any other suggestions lemme know. i really want to hear what it sounds like before i buy one.

Its gonna sound like every other 4" fart can you have heard. Sorry I really don't like the whole fart can thing. Put a nice cat-back system on, Pacesetter, Borla, somethin like that.

yeh the pacesetter and borla are nice but they cost alot. if they sell just the muffler part i can get one but the full system is way to much. i was thinking of even putting a flowmaster on it.

IMO the flowmaster would be better than a fart can. It is still gonna be somewhat restrictive if you don't get the mandrel bent pipes to go along with it. One thing to remember though, you are better off waiting and getting what you really want, what is best for performance than trying to ghetto rig it or buying somethin that is cheaper and having it break. Or spending money on parts you are gonna wanna replace later.

Get some sound clips and then I'll believe you. I've yet to hear a 4" in muffler/can that sounded anything different than what honda's put on their car. Mine sounds downright mean at times.

I got 80 series flowmaster on mine, WOT sounds incredible, especially when the engine is kinda cold. I'm with neonsxt if you wanna put a fart can on a car buy a honda, I have a tendency to laugh at them, they look kind of stupid, besides what better than having an exhaust that looks normal, then u punch and drown out the fart cans, it's priceless
