Cops in New Hampshire are starting to crack down on loud and modified exhaust. So I prefer loud. I don' agree with what the state is doing.

 

The best thing with the N1 is the silencer - it's loud and fun around town, but you can pop in the silencer for a long trip and it takes ALL the bite out of the sound, as well as the 3000 RPM drone.

The Corksport exhaust's silencer is pretty flimsy, but it does seem to work.

What kind of car is yours? TII or NA. also do you have an audio clip of the exhaust with the silencer?

thanks,

i used to have a S5 NA with 2.5 straight exhaust w/ RB header/presilencer. It was just TOO loud after awhile, and it had such a raw wheedwhacker sound that I decided it was too much. Personally for the NA i would say in between. I think if i would have put a more restrictive muffler on my car it would have sounded better.

As for the T2, open the ehxuast up since the turbo quiets the noise. 3" would be good

 

My car is pretty loud, and being that I only drive it every once in a while, and just to get sideways or have some fum with, its ok. If I had to drive it alot though, no way I would put up with that noise all the time.

 

hhmm,
Does magnaflow have silencers for its exhaust? I like the sound of being able to limit the loudness.

If youve got a N/A your going to be loud
If youve got a TII your going to be quite

My N/A had a N1 exaust with a straight pipe it was the most beautiful sounding exaust i had ever heard
My current TII has same setup except its a turbo and its much quiter and not as nice a sound, so it goes mostly by what kind of car you got

 

Im using a Bonez race pipe mated to the Corksport cat back. Its pretty loud but sounds great at higher RPM. Ive heard KoukiFC's setup and it sounds great and isnt NEARLY as loud as mine lol.

 

It would be interesting to see both age and if their rex has a loud exhaust with how the voters voted.

 

I prefer carrying...more like conceiling a big stick so I'm all for the "quiet/wolf in sheeps clothing" type exhaust.

 

Where I live there are so many strait piped hick trucks strolling through town so the sound of my exhaust never raised any suspicion.. although when I was trying to talk to chicks while we were driving it was almost impossable.

 

I'm 50/50 on this one. If you've got a car that has the ***** to back up the bite, make it loud. If you've got a daily driver that doesn't get smacked on a lot, make it quiet.

I slapped the N1 on the vert for a few weeks and enjoyed every minute of it, but on long trips it will KILL you without the silencer.

 

I think that will be loud. I have the RB header / presilencer and an HKS back. No streetport yet. But the car sounds like a damn airplane when it idles, you know, the sound of Cessna's at the local airport? Sounds great but definately loud. Not ear-breaking loud like some exhausts which don't have presilencers but still, not exactly "medium" on a scale of quiet to loud.

My car is not as loud as a Harley Davidson motorcycle but sounds similar.

Hope this helps.

 

Loud gets old really fast. My car club rolls with the two way radios and I can't hear mine without the ear bud at 35mph. Cell phones above idle also are pointless unless you like repeating yourself and asking for clarification on every other word. I called my dad while doing the breakin run on my engine to let him know it was running and he thought I was calling from a plane. (use to be in flight school)

I'm considering revamping my exhaust and going 3" single with a open muffler for the track and using a silencer for the daily grind. Shouldn't prove too open, and if I megaphone it out to the 3" from the header flange I might actually gain some more power out of the deal.

My loud is so loud cops can follow me long after I'm out of sight. Not exactly cool when everyone in town knows exactly where you are at all times.

 

.... And I got a fix it ticket tonight when the cop only heard me rev to 3500.

Hummmm what to do.... Corksport or custom single 3" with silencer?

 

custom dunno about the 3 inch though? -Gabe

 

anyone actually use a muffler on their cars? lol

i was thinking of replacing my fake cat with a spiral flow muffler from moroso. anyone have any experience with these?

 

loud man loud
