I have been looking at the apexi n1 dual exhaust for a while now and I really like what I have seen. But now I am wondering if I should get cold air intake for my 93 240sx? I haven't done anything to it so far, and I'm wondering which would be the best performance increase and smartest mod for me to do ATM.

Also for the apexi n1 dual exhaust, does it come with the muffler and the exhaust? or is it just the muffler?

It comes with the muffler, its a full cat-back.

You should decide which mod you want based on your budget. Intake is cheaper, but personally i would rather get an exhaust first. Intake gives alil power and a better sound. Exhaust gives more power a better sound and improves looks, thats my take on it.

Save a little more and get them both at the same time.

In my opinion, get the cold air first then the exhaust because the exhaust is hella expensive especially the n1 dual. I got the cold air in my car and i can feel it pull alot more than stock intake.

I've learned something over the years. Here it is: If you change one end you have to change the other. Intake... that's like trying to force more air out of a winnie pipe! What the heck? You must save your money and buy both at the same time to reef the benefits.

Hmmm people these days, what'a ya gonna do.

True but it doesn't really hurt to improve one and then the other later. I say get the exhaust first. Then get the intake. But you gotta take into consideration what your budget is like and then decide.

True, true. Go with the exhasut if you can't find the money. I mean I don't even know if anyone makes intakes for our cars! I want one for my S14 but I can't find one.

i dunno what you're talking about. AEM and injen both make intakes for the s14. injen's the only one with the cold air tho, as far as i know. i went with exhaust first. that and i took out my resonator box to get the "intake roar" :D like everyone says, it depends on your budget. it'd be easier to get an intake first since it's slightly cheaper. you're looking at around $300 if you get the injen cai.
