Apexi Dual N1 for an otherwise stock vert?

Thinking about getting this exhaust. From the videos I've seen it sounds great but its hard to judge how loud it is so Im gonna have to just take you guys' word for it. Is it streetable? The car is my daily btw, but I like loud. But there is a point at which its just looking for trouble. Your opinions? Again, the car is NA.

Located in southern california btw
Thanks!

Regardless of how modded your engine is, rotaries are always gunna be loud as hell with an exhaust haha.

I know anything 2.5 and larger is pretty loud. With combinations of resonators and cats I'm sure you can tone it a little bit down but not much.

I have a authentic N1 for sale right now and I'm in Southern California as well if you're interested.

Would you say this exhaust is usable on my daily? Is it too loud for everyday use? You know how cops are here in socal, ever have trouble with them?

I daily my vert with a custom dual n1 setup. It's loud but not annoyingly loud like 3" straightpipe Honda loud. I had my main cat deleted and a new y pipe made out of 2.5 with the n1 canisters clamped on. I left my two precats for now. Comes out to about 85db at idle and 95 at wot

I have a apexi dual n1 on my vert and it's def. streetable, not much high pitch more of a deep tone. There's a local with this system on a n/a and the tone is very similar to mine. Biggest difference in noise will be getting a authentic system and still using the factory cat.

I went for the more flush look. It's kinda cool how the stock bumper can fit 4" tips imo
and +1 on the deep tone, it sounds like what the car was meant to sound like.

Honestly it all depends on your area. If you don't drive like an ******* everywhere im sure you won't attract much attention. If you open up the throttle more while dailying it then theyll just pull you over for being an ******* and having a loud exhaust haha. It all depends on your area tho.
