Love Invidia n1, any way to reduce volume?
So on my 2015 BRZ i love the deep tone/sound/looks of my invidia n1. The problem is I have to use the included silencers because its too loud and it looks ugly.
Any suggestions to reduce volume on the N1 exhaust? Maybe weld on a custom resonator? I have UEL, Stock front pipe and Invidia N1. Thanks |

Q300.
A resonator won't do much considering you already have several in the system.

Resonators generally change tone and kill rasp, but don't do much for volume. The only really good way to reduce volume is a muffler.

I was used to N1's sound when I swapped it to Q300 & Q300 felt super quite right after swap, but I love the way it sounds better than N1 now. No rasp No drone No interior buzz |

After using the N1, the Q300, and now a Perrin 2.5" resonated, I vote the Perrin as the best one.
The Q300 is WAY quieter than the N1 to the point of you can't even hear the UEL sound inside the cabin barely. The Perrin 2.5" resonated is the step right in the middle of both. No drone, distinct UEL rumble, loud when you floor it, not loud when you drive normally. Just my 2 cents. I'm sticking with the Perrin now. |
