To anyone running a full exhaust with Invidia N1

[sqd]

Anyone around here running a header, and the rest of the exhaust system replaced in combination with the Invidia N1 catback? I am more or less set on getting the N1 and will be running an ACE header with OP, and Berk catted frontpipe, and I understand that it'll be loud, but would love to hear from anyone running a full system with the N1, on how bad it is.

I can absolutely live with a loud car, as long as it's not like I'm running a straight pipe that exits under the car.. I've found just a few Youtube videos vid OK sound, but so many have either stock OP or FP etc.

It's going to be loud as fuck. And droney as fuck. And to be honest, it'll sound awful.

If you have passengers in the car, they will get headaches, they might need to puke. It's just really not worth it.

Edit: I used to have an N1, and it was bad enough with the rest of the exhaust being stock.

Odd you say that . I have just the catback and I have 0 drone up till about 70. Then there is a light drone from there up.

See, this is interesting, because these are very different opinions..
This is hard!

Had Openflash headers and the N1... way too loud for me, and I like a loud car.
A quieter catback is usually a better choice IMO, especially when you have catless headers, the note is much nicer with a quieter catback.

Full catless exhaust with an N1 would be undrivable on the highway.

What other catback would you, or anyone who reads this, recommend then? That doesn't cost A LOT more than the N1?

I found, and don't flame me to death now, the Manzo v1 catback. I know that they're cheap, but fitment seems fairly decent when looking around, but maybe I've only found the positive comments. They've made a second version too, more like the GReddy Evo 3 that's a lot louder, but I got the impression that the v1 is more mild, sound-wise. And to be honest, I'm not going to make power with the catback, so buying a system that is on the cheaper side doesn't bother me THAT much.

Though I obviosuly don't want the cheapest eBay special with incredibly bad fitment and cracking welds kind either.

My brz is stock righr no but I plan on running
Tomei uel
Tomei op
Indivia resonated fp
Indivia n1

My eg hatch was intake, header, no cat, and exhuast
My bb6 was intake. Headers, hollowed out cat and full exhuast
My 240 with sr20 was intake, downpipe, no cats, full 3" exhuast, my bb6 was actually leader then my 240. I like loud.
The hatch drones bad everywhere, the bb6 only drones at about 75+ on the highway and my 240 was minor drone

You going to have some drone with full exuast no matter what, some will be better then others and everyone's opinions is different. I think it will sounds good, it will be loud and there will be some drone just think about what u want and what you can deal with.

I can't speak for the Manzo but some people like them. The Works AB-M is super affordable (but it is an axleback, not a catback)
If you want a catback, maybe the Q300 or an eBay exhaust like the Manzo.

this is pretty much what N1 with full exhaust will be like. All caps

It's not bad at all, at least for me and you. I also have a ultra quiet front pipe from JDL, to be honest I still think it doesn't do anything I should have got a resonated FP from JDL.

But in all fairness I don't know if it's just me but it is pretty quiet in the city, quiet as in no drone, you can still hear that bassy rumble UEL sound at least for me.

I think you'll love it and have no problems with it, the ONLY time where it was LOUD af was when I had to get up early in the morning in the winter time.

It also sounds AMAZING when you get on it.

Hey thanks for the input! Though this was a few weeks ago, I'm actually recieveing a Agency Power catback today. Might even be louder than the N1, so yeah.. Planning on welding on an additional resonator if it's unbearable though. We'll see
