I keep debating what I want to do because I want to avoid exhaust fumes. I am considering the Fujitsubo catless fp, but I would love to get the apexi just cause it's catted.

One more question regarding this setup. Did the cabin noise level change in any of the setups? Preferably the VS/VSR since it's in the same realm as the Authorize R.

Can't believe a 421 header is quieter then stock.

I wish they packaged it with a quality UEL header / OP.
Do you think the FP would even fit with a different manifold? Looks like they bolt up about the same location. |

Yeah, that's the misconception I was trying to tell people since day one.
You can mix/match setups all day, but a combination of resonator size and placement is what ultimately dictates sound, not "stock front pipe is quieter than aftermarket because it's stock" Quote:
Here's what the dyno looks like:
The only difference between these two are 1) 100 octane, and 2) the Apex'i/Blitz setup is about 6db quieter. You can decide if it's quality or not. As for fitment, the front pipe itself is interchangeable w/ stock. I tested this out already in an earlier post: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showp...00&postcount=7 -alex |

At that price point, no one would buy it and just point to others. Then you get the same argument over and over again.... -alex |

Review Soon || Apex'i exhaust manifold + overpipe + Super Catalyzer for FRS/BRZ
Thank you Alex for the detail review.
It really intrigues me on how quiet the system is, so I went back to Apexi site to see more spec on the header & I found out on their official site product list actually listed everything down to sizing & decibel the system is making with N1X cat back or without(stock). *Also has data on their RS Evo (Axle back) as well. http://www.apexi.co.jp/pdf/products/exhaust.pdf RS Evo : 93 db Header & Super catalyzer : 85 db N1 Evo : Left 94 db ,Right 95 db Full system Header & Super Catalyzer + N1 Evo : Left 93 db, Right 93 db. That super Catalyzer must be magical... I guess I really want the system but @ 2200 it's really a steep hill. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Last edited by chaoskaze; 06-25-2016 at 05:25 AM. |

$2200 is MSRP, actual sell price will be below $2000. I guess if you look at it from a different angle, do you want to deal with noise and drone? I ran this setup w/ the Blitz VSR exhaust and it was so quiet it was annoying. Annoying because if I spent that much money on a setup, I'd want it to sound ricey. Quote:
FWIW I can easily smell gas with a stock setup in my garage on cold startup. -alex |

Plus, from what i researched, Catless front pipe + Stock header would smell less than; Catless header with a Stock front pipe and smell even more less than; Catless header with Catted aftermarket front pipe.

Sound clips:
Apex'i setup as-is Apex'i front pipe only Apex'i setup w/ Blitz VS/VSR exhaust (quiet, OE-type baffle exhaust) Apex'i setup w/ Blitz F-Ti exhaust (straight-thru muffler design) A sidenote: the entire header/OP/FP setup is basically like stock in terms of sound suppression. I know there's other headers on the market that make more power, but this setup will probably be the most streetable without sacrificing any noise or smell. Special thanks to @FRSport.com and @info@BlitzNA.com for helping with testing and parts.
