Changing to an uncatted front pipe for will give more power and volume, but again without much more 'rumble'. You will definitely need a re-tune to avoid ECU codes. Out of curiosity, what tuning system are you using to re-flash your ECU?

The Invidia N1 is loud, and with your proposed changes it will be extremely loud. The Q300 is quiet and may keep noise at reasonable levels, but again without much more 'rumble' - are you looking for more power, more volume, or more 'rumble'?
My tune was done in Charlton, Massachusetts by Bren Tuning, TBH I'm not sure what route they went with my car, but they do primarily Cobb e-tunes AFAIK.

I'm always looking for more power, but from a simple enjoyment perspective I'm looking for more rumble and volume, primarily at lower RPMs (I spend a lot of time in stop & go traffic and even as it is with the new parts you can barely tell it's idling...)

Appreciate the response by the way
