Default Looking For New Exhaust

I've got 3" Greddy Cat Back Exhaust right now on my GST but I'm not too into the muffler. I like the N1 style mufflers by Apexi. I've got the big, bulky muffler.
I'm also looking for the look where the canisters project at an angle. Would i need to buy a whole new exhaust set up or just the muffler and have a shop angle the piping?

Where should I look?

Apexi N1 exits at an angle...I wouldnt add an angle because the less bends the better.

i thought that the reason the N1's exited at the angle was to get rid of a bend?

So does that mean I'll need to buy the whole exhaust system? hmmm. ::looks into empty wallet:: This may be a problem

yes that is why my EVO exhaust is a little angled... its to avoid bending for unnessary reasons

I found this one, what do you think?

FLAT TIP APEXI N1 MUFFLER - BLACK CARBON

I actually went to a muffler shop about 6 months ago and asked them to put my Del Sol's exhaust with a exting angle, and they had not clue what I was talking about. ::sctaches head::
There has got to be a Shop down in SD that for sure knows that they're doing.
