Exhaust combination

Hi,
First, I have searched here, Google, and YouTube.
I've never been good at looking for stuff, but I am positive I can't find anything.

I have am opportunity to pick up a couple parts around half price and am wondering if they would sound ok together.

- JDL UEL header, ceramic coated
- Amuse R1 Titan catback

I am looking for lightweight, high quality, but they need to sound decent.

I've found videos of both individually, but never together.
Does anyone here have this combination?

I would be sourcing the rest of the system before fitting.
I will be getting a tune after fitment.

Or is the r1 an absolute waste?

It will be extremely loud with a catless header just because the Amuse catback is already loud with everything remaining stock.

The Amuse R1 is a nice exhaust though. But I'd only get it if you keep the stock header/or if yu don't care about the car being extremely loud.

Thanks for that.
It's so hard to know what's suitable until it's on the car.
I'm not too worried about loudness as long as I don't get too much drone haha. It's funny...none of the videos of the Amuse seem THAT loud.
I was actually kind of disappointed in the sound on YouTube.

Amuse R1 Titan catback Looks like it has a resonator and 2 mufflers.

IMO it wont be that loud (consider your description of loudness)

Im running a catless JDL UEL header with a muffler delete. (stock Resonator MP)

And to me It is not that loud. You should be fine with the Amuse R1, IMO it won't even be that loud again depend on your own tolerance.

Edit: If you want cheap/Light weight, go with a muffler delete. It sound so raw and good, and it pops sometimes from 1st to 2nd which always put a smile on my face
