Be prepared for it to be LOUD though, If you have sensitive baby ears then disregard everything I just said


This is the exact setup I'm planning on going. I'm having a hard time picking between the RS or the Tanabe Concept G. The Tanabe claims to be quieter, but the mor videos I watch the more I'm hearing rasp because it's a 2.5" exhaust (I know videos don't do it justice). The RS in comparisons is deeper in tone, which I want, but soo much louder which I'm afraid of.

I've already got a Berk HFC front pipe - was an impulse buy before reading up on how much the volume is influenced by the front pipe and of course I no longer have my stock FP.

Debating using this setup + something like an Apexi butterfly valve to maybe help tone things down a tad when I don't want to attract attention or pull into a neighbourhood.

Having an RS - is there any exhaust you can compare it to in terms of volume as a reference point? I've heard muffler deletes and the N1 which everyone around my area has.

this is a members car. Gruppe-S UEL header, Gruppe-S overpipe, stock frontpipe and Ark Grip Catback exhaust. As far as I can tell this has retained by far the most rumble of any header/exhaust package i've heard yet.

Good sound. I'm guessing (hoping) that car has been lowered because it has like no ground clearance. One of the things I love about this platform is that it manages to have a very low center of gravity without needing to sacrifice ground clearance. At stock it's only slightly lower than average. Many people are surprised at the driveways & etc I can deal with without bottoming out.

Excuse the noob question, but would you want larger or smaller than 2.5" for less rasp and a deeper sound?

If you are interested here is my set up. Invidia Q300 and JDL catted UEL. It is very quiet. Eventually going to replace the front pipe to get a little louder.

Larger = Less rasp but more volume and visa versa

I put a PLM catless front pipe on with my setup and the result was awesome but extremely loud. Like echoing off every building loud, it was like I was driving a legitimate race car but I'm sure everyone else on the road hated it So I do not recommend running a front pipe that's not resonated at least.

A butterfly valve would be a cool idea actually. I'm curious about trying one now.

I've never really been on the outside and had someone actually drive it hard but I would say its somewhat louder than the N1 with it being a single exit and 3in.
