If your exhaust 100% like the one pictured, I reckon it will be LOUD... there's no sufficient size middle pipe resonator, and even the rear muffler does not look like it really dampens the sound... but I'm sure it will give you a good flow though for high boost/power applications...

Don't bother abt the resonator, it may not do much for noise dampening as it's not as effective as a proper resonator. My Trust MX has just arrived, not yet on the car, looks very similar to the pic below. I'm sure mine will be a quiet one as there are two resonators there and 80mm (3") pipe will still give me a good flow...

rs73, i had a feeling that it would be LOUD, but the guy at the shop told me that the baffle should eliminate much of the drone. Let me know what yours is like when you get it on the car, i might be able to get it exchanged. It probably doesn't help that the one on order has a 4" pipe....

cheers

Yeap, I've heard a N1 on R32 with n without silencer. It does reduce the noise... dunno if it is as claimed by Apexi: reduce by 7db... but exhaust flow will be reduced though...

That's why hi flow exhaust like competition muffler will always be straight thru, no silencer, no resonator... but VERY LOUD

My MX Trust has 110mm tip, wonder if I chuck Apexi N1's optional silencer on to my Trust model as it's also 110mm. Just to silent it down even more again... kinda "stealth mode" exhaust... but will see till I put it on my car and how loud it is. Dun wanna neighbours start complaining, even worse, 1 building away of my house is an elderly house... so I gotta be careful not to rev my car too hard with aftermarket exhaust or I may get a letter from EPA.

The N1 system is dam loud but not over the top and has a real nice note.

Oh and i would really worry about the old people as most have hearing probs anyways :P

And if you get sent to the pits just wack the silencer in and im sure they wont even ask about the exhaust or keep the old one just for that reason, to swap if you ever need too.

yeah, by the way one of my neighbours has an old Ford Escort with leaking exhuast, and everytime it drove by it's SO LOUD you can still hear it after a block a way... Even louder than a Harley for you guys to imagine....

Kaboom... boom... vroom... vroom... clank... clonk.. vroom.. boom..

:burnout:

So my exhaust would still sound like musical heaven compared to his. :lol:

I had an old beemer 3 series with a supersprint back box and only resonators along its length, it was pretty loud i suspect around 95dB... i had angry enough locals then i hate to see what they'll do with the Trust installed!! :lol:

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
