New N1 Exhaust (no sound)???
Well I just purchased and installed an Apexi N1 axle back exhaust.. The question I have is I thought with all stock exhaust including resonator the muffler would have some sort of mellow sound.. But when I installed it and turned on the car I heard nothing..
The exhaust makes no noise what so ever... I am looking for a nice deep throaty sound.. What can you all recommend for me to do to get that sound..??
Remove resonator/bigger piping????? Advise please... [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-frown.gif[/IMG] Thanks
Oh yeah thanks again Gshock....

Rep Power: 0 -Where did you get your N1 Axle-back from? I haven't seen that one before. That surprises me that its so quiet, I've heard other people with the Mozart axle back and HKS really love their exhausts, they have a nice tone. Hmm... yes, adding piping should make it very loud.

Rep Power: 333 So do I have to take off the resonator..then add 2.25" piping the rest of the way or will just removing the resonator do the trick..?? I dont want a raspy noise.. And also I heard alot of people saying the Mozart gave them a nice sound with all stock piping but was that with or without the resonator..??? I just dont understand why it has absolutely no sound at all..???? Oh I bought the exhaust off of a fellow 7th Gen. member...

Rep Power: 0 u need to have custom piping..but when u do, get an aftermarket resinator or glass pack if u dont want the raspy/rattling noise. u used to have an axle back and did custom piping w/o a resinator, and it was loud as hell, but it sounded like fart..now i got an n1 with my custom piping and i put on a resinator and it sounds PERFECT!

Rep Power: 333 Ok I purchased this on the Marketplace and it said Apexi N1 Axle Back... So I figured it was bought as an axle back.. I have'nt talked to the seller yet but I think he bought the muffler by it self and got it put on and then sold as an axle back... But I may be mistaken I dont know... I just went and took off the resonator and replaced it with a straight pipe (for now).... She has sound now... A little raspy and farty when you stomp on it but sounds ok when your just cruising.. I will be doing the bigger piping though real soon...
