It's one of our favorites as well for the price point.

The drone comments are interesting because in the videos I cannot hear anything close to drone, the video I was expecting it was the normal driving video on page one. The exhaust actually does not sound loud or droning at all in any of those videos even the launch in car video.

I installed this exhaust yesterday. It is loud, but I enjoy it. Since I was alone I had a conversion with myself to make sure I can still talk in the car. Seemed fine ha.

The sound is good enough for the price, but I'm concern about very little like only 1 or 2 HP gain because there is no dyno release for the product. The perrin and evo all shown upto +7hp gain. Could you show us some dyno product specs that would be great.

Sorry, don't have an actual dB measurement.

I will say it significantly increases volume. In my mind, the volume increase is awesome!

Cheers!

yeah, but tracks have dB limits... would hate to get kicked off track for something that simple, as long as it's under 98 it's fine. the the most limiting in the southeast that i know of.

Totally understand. You might look into where those tracks take their measurements, as well. I know SCCA has a 50 ft reading for their dB limit for national and pro events.

I believe you should be good. Hopefully, we can get some numbers for everyone.

Cheers!

We were not the loudest car at the track when we ran ours with a catless front pipe and the N1.

In fact for track use I think it is relatively quiet, way quieter than the Evo X ETS set-up we had before.

Awesome thanks man. I haven't heard this exhaust in person yet, but this is the exhaust I'm getting. I do like exhausts a bit louder than most people, but not obnoxious... The videos you provided, I must repeat again, it really does not sound that loud to me - relative to the exhausts I've run on my previous cars or heard on other people's car on the street/track.

Man, I probably consider the lower Q300 to be safer b/c I got twice the commuting. I like the n1 deep sound from the video clip but it sound loud drone in reality.

just the N1 itself doesn't really drone, you have to be at just the right rpm to get drone, i rarely am....
