Tomei catless uel and a Perrin 3 inch. You’ll hate it. But when I had it paired with the fteightysix catted header. It was perfect.

I'm rocking the Tomei UEL and Perrin 2.5" catback, and I actually really like it...

I have mixed feelings about the Perrin catback. Way too quiet on its own for my liking, and I don't plan on going UEL for at least a while. Never heard it with headers in person but sounds decent in the sound clips I've seen.
Decided not to go with MXP after multiple recommendations going against it. And muffler delete will just be too loud after headers so I'd just wind up reselling it. Leaning towards going with the N1, OEM over and front pipe, and eventually UEL catless headers. I've heard it in person and loved it, just not sure what it's like in car and what it's like to daily such a loud setup. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

My buddy has an n1 rep paired with the ofh and over pipe. From the outside it wasn’t so bad. But in a ride along. There was so much drone.

By N1 rep do you mean Spec D? I haven't heard great things about that, but I'm not sure to what degree the quality would affect drone vs muffler size. I wouldn't know since I've never ridden in a twin with either the N1 or Spec D.

The N1 is great by itself but it will be a bit loud with a catless header. I still love the sound of my setup though.

Yeah just installed it this morning and was surprised by how much louder it is in person. Videos really can't do it justice. Did you find it quiets down a tad after it's broken in? That's what I've heard some people say in my initial research. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I'm torn between MXP, Magnaflow, or R400 to pair with my Borla UEL. I really should just join up on a meet and listen to a few cars. |

Personally I think the N1 is a little too tin canny, and paired with a header and especially only one or no cats will be annoyingly loud.
If you are planning on getting a header and going to have one or no cats. A “quieter” exhaust would pair well. Q300, Magnaflow, and my personal choice CSG MXP touring86. All of these will be louder then stock but not by too much. And with header and one or no cats should be a very good volume/tone for majority of people. |
