Louder rumble?

Currently i am running oft stage 2, borla UEL header, stock overpipe, stock front pipe and stock exhaust. But the rumble sound doesnt kick it after 4-5k rpm.

Is there anyway to make the rumble little bit louder without changing the stock exhaust? I kinda like the 2015 JDM exhaust tip.

Thanks

Yes. Replace the stock parts.

Get rid of the over and front pipes but keep the rest.
Or
Get a cat back with similar tips and keep the rest.
Or
All of the above and bug the crap out of your neihbours.

The best sound to me is the high rpm F1 sound! Can't beat that sound. Otherwise its a 4cyl so it won't have much rumble

The car will naturally sound less rumbly the higher in RPM you get. When I'm on the track and hanging out around 5-7k, my UEL doesn't really sound that different from an EL header.

1) Buy an aftermarket frontpipe, (you will get more rasp if you go catless, or one of the single resonated deals.)
2) Have a muffler shop swap the stock muffler out for something like a flowmaster. Should be cheap and easy.

I had a N1 before install the borla header, the reason why i remove the n1 is because of exhaust sound louder than the rumble sound.

Too lazy to look through the thread, but the OP won't do a whole lot for noise. Otherwise, yes

the N1 itself does that. Stay catted with the FP and keep the stock OP and see how you like it.

Or try a different catback like the Q300 or Perrin 2.5 resonated with just the header.

But know this car will never really rumble (like a turbo Subaru thats seen as the Subi rumble everyone refers too). I have tried and given up on that lol

I have Tomei UEL, Motiv OP, Berk hfc fp, and q300. It sounds like a tin can between 2k-3k but good everywhere else. Im ditching the UEL cuz im never gonna get the rumble I want
