i do want that loud sound but not so loud like the n1
but a header will wait till i basically want it either louder or get boared of the tone.

Well since you're pretty much set on invidia I'll play. I vote r400. I had it for about a year, no drone or at least very little, good sound, deep rumble. Pretty quiet exhaust by itself. I had it fully catless so that's another story, but still fairly tame. Also I broke like 3 exhaust hangers just from daily driving, and apparently other r400 owners have done similar.

Never tried the N2, but I've heard it's the bridge between N1 and R400 so

Ive had my r400 and catless UEL header, with OE front pipe since i bought my car. Its tame while just regular driving. I love the tone. There is some drone over 80mph or so.

Well you can't really go wrong with JDL for the header if you're looking for UEL, I've also heard great things about the ACE EL. As for the front pipe I use an invidia catless resonated version, but again I've heard great things about JDL's front pipe. Honestly the over pipe can be anything that won't rattle and is correctly sized. I went with an ISR 2.5" for like $100.
