Speedfactory V1 Exhaust Non-Resonated w/ Borla UEL Header: Too Loud?
I am looking to get rid of the torque dip. The borla UEL header is what I keep hearing about for it with the added subie rumble, however looking up videos online is showing this might be hella loud. I am fine with a little bit of loud, but I am not trying to sound like some overly-loud civic with a fart exhaust.
My setup is a Speedfavtory V1 catback unresonated exhaust, no other mods to the system. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get the desired performance upgrade while still maintaining an acceptable volume with what I have? |

Keep the stock front pipe and maybe need to add a resonator to the catback. Im thinking itll be raspy and a little civic fart can like. I have heard this setup resonated and catted and it was a bit tin can soudning in higher rpm. Muffle design and material makes a big diffeence though. With uncatted headers I can say the only exhaust that doesnt sound tinny to me is the Perrin and Miltek

I had that setup -- it's really loud. Welded in a Vibrant bottle resonator. Much better now, but still quite loud on cold starts. Once it warms up its much more docile.
Here's how it sounds after welding in the resonator. FT86 Speedfactory V1 Resonated w/ Borla UEL header If you're in ATL, I can show you how it sounds in person. |
