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:

    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
