I had the n1 I sold it cause of the drone. The 125$ berk test pipe sounds better and does not drone

I was thinking about getting the Berk FP with a cat. Is that what you had? Was it much loader and annoying?

Yeah, that's what I use to have before switching to the HKS dual resonated. Loving this setup way better. No drone zone but car still have a great sound outside.

I love my n1 exhaust, with that being said since day one it wass matched with tomei uel header and injen exhaust along with light weight perrin pulley
so i don't know how it would be by itself
i know i love it, so sexy, get complements, it sounds great, even with oft stage 2 and all above, not too loud for daily driver, too loud is matter of opinion
IMO N1 exhaust was/is best bang for buck, not cheaply made at all
perfect exhaust option for NA FRS/86/BRZ

Just my 2 cents is it's pretty loud, but I've totally gotten used to it. None of my neighbors complain, and it sounds great unless you're on the highway, when it's super droney, or at high RPM, when it kinda loses it's bark.

Still a great system, looks great too.

UEL and the N1 is pretty loud, but I like it. Only real complaint is the volume on a cold start. Way too loud. Otherwise I like mine.

The only mod on my car is the N1 catback. I sometimes leave for work at 6:30am; no complaints yet. I get many compliments about the exhaust note at work too.

90% of my drive to work is highway. The drone gets slightly annoying for me when I lift off the gas pedal while on the highway. A steady gas pedal input keeps the drone to a minimum.

Sounds great, damn heavy sound doe.. My commute is only 12 mins long (20~km with highway) so thats how i live with it. Long range driving will piss you off. I found the engine sound hole plug (cig jack cap) makes the interior noise go down a little bit, but it tires you out fast if you drive for more than 45 mins. I have no silencer, high rev has almost no sound (only drones and growls until 4000rpm or so)
