Maybe this might help you out. Not my car, but found this on youtube.

Hardly more quiet than an N1 it seems. I don't know why folks put up an exhaust video and then fill it with random shots and music...

Maybe is a millennial trend

Does this muffler sits low or it's just the angle of the picture?

With a little bit of extra hands courtesy of some friends, I was able to install the R400 very easily on Friday.

It sounds awesome. Plenty of volume but not too loud (quiets down nicely when cruising on the highway, no drone whatsoever), and has a nice, deep-tone to it which is the furthest thing away from ricey fartcan for me.

Definetly louder than the Q300, but not N1-obnoxious.

The catback itself looks very well constructed, and although I was worried about possible clearance issues with the rear mufflers (considering how they're positioned), it seems perfectly fine and I shouldn't run into any issues.

Only issue which seems to be prevalent with all 86/BRZ owners is some difficulty lining up the tips correctly. For me, after some adjustment, the passenger side still sits ever so slightly closer to the diffuser and inboard compared to the drivers side. Maybe a set of extended hangers should remedy the issue?

I'll get my DSLR, Shure mic and Tripod out later this week and record some sound clips for everyone!

The muffler does hang lower than stock, but it's not as bad as I was expecting. You lose about 3/4" over stock in terms of clearance, IIRC.

I'm glad it sounds good, but I really do not like how that looks from behind. The second canister sitting that low would bug me.

Anyone know how much it weighs?

Funnily .. but seeing lower diameter tubes inside of tips almost makes me wish to have exhaust WITHOUT large diameter end tips that each and every aftermarket exhaust has. It looks more function / less posing.

Yeah, if the tips were double walled and or if they were able to mask/black out the lower diameter tubing in the muffler component, it would look better for sure. I may hit it with some high temp black down the road.

For those who are curious how it sounds without all the wub wub from ft86speedfactory's video (love you guys I swear!), here you go:

Sounds pretty good.

Somerandom18 · 07-12-2017, 11:23 AM

Ordered this. Going to be running it with a catless unresonated fp on stock header (2017my)/overpipe for a while. Can't wait for UPS to show up with it. 😬
