Torn between these exhausts

Currently I have a bone stock evo IX and I want to start modding. I have done enough searching to know what are the first few mods should be but I can't decide which exhaust I want. I'm having a hard time trying to pick which one I want and which one suits my goals- aps 3.5" tbe, invidia tbe, and the helix tbe. Which one of these exhausts would you guys suggest and why. I'm starting to lean towards the invidia tbe.

If you can still get the APS - IIRC - they are no longer making Evo products.

I think that he is only looking at the three exhaust that he prev. posted. By those three i would go with the helix price to performance you cant beat it, 3.5 is not needed unless you have big plans, invidia is also a really good company but helix is the overall pic for me.

Depends on the sound you are looking for but of those three helix would get my vote.

All those exhausts will have very different sounds, just be 100% sure to get a ride in the car of the exhaust that your leaning towards.

The BR exhaust is light but pretty loud without the magnaflow muffler and the helix can make some peoples ears bleed.

Ive got the Invidia cat back and love it. Im running no cat and it is still pretty quiet at idle and when I do my normal around the town driving; but at wot it screams.

Fitment is excellent and the fully polished stainless steel is beautiful.
It is a true 3" w/ no tapering at all. The resonator is even a true 3" resonator.

This is an excellent exhaust and would recommend it to anyone

Thanks for all the replys guys!
I had a helix downpipe and hks carbon exhaust on my sti and I loved it, the sound was amazing. I have heared some exhausts on EVO's and I didn't like them, I'm looking for a fairly loud exhaust but with a "low/deep" tone to it. I wanted to go with helix since I liked their quality, power, and sound from my sti but I'm still not sure what I want to do with my evo. I'm still torn between helix and invidia. Which tbe will give me what I'm looking for.
Thanks again.

You really should check out the Perrin, those have very bassy notes, very deep, and moderately loud.
