Quiet exhaust
 
What other brand of exhaust would be quiet beside Fujisobo? Since it will be expensive. And my S2000 had an exhaust that could be heard a block away, I don't want this to happen again.

have you seen the exhaust compilation sticky thread? you can hear each of them.

Its subjective more than anything since everyone has different standards of loud. But i think the perrin one is fairly quiet.

I'm with drew on this one. I too want an aftermarket exhaust but remains as quiet as possible.

Stupid question, since aftermarket exhausts are almost always louder, why not just keep the stock one? Or just get some modified tips?

Tainen 06-19-2012 02:51 PM

you could just do a new high flow catted downpipe and keep the stock axleback. That'd be pretty quiet. the nameless catted downpipe is $400... and I really like it.

I'm in the same boat and leaning towards Nameless Performance really because of Tainen's vids :thumbsup:

Cuz powa!

There's no reason why power has to equal loud on a street car... this isn't Formula 1. In testing various exhaust setups for my race car, the quietest one I tested was the one that actually performed the best and what's nice about that is I don't have to modify it when I go race at tracks with very restrictive Db policies.

There's no reason I can't have 15-25 extra ponies on my car without having to sound like another clown with a fart-can who's car only attracts high school kids and police officers.

Call it age but my ricer days are behind me. I like sporty cars and performance but I'm not trying to be part of any "scene" or attract unnecessary attention.

You guys are in for a treat.

Performance not equal to noise. I want to be able to push the car on the street without checking the rear view mirror every two secs. Those days are gone with my S2000, I was afraid to push it everytime I drive it because the loud exhaust.

My Accelerated Performance system is on it's way via FedEx. That's what I chose to go with. Sounds more mean then the tame/quiet Namleess.

Tainen 06-20-2012 04:36 PM

nameless sounds pretty aggressive when wound out to me? just not as loud (especially in the cabin)

sht- that sounds good - but i have one question -- if we end up taking it to the track.. have you measured the db on this unit ? love it


i wish someone would measure the stock one and tell us how they compare to these aftermarket units... hard to guage that over some video on internet/youtube..
