I've been hearing people say that they do and don't like their N1. Does anyone have a sound or video link/clip of this exhaust on a 5gen prelude. I currently have the GReddy PE and was considering switching to the N1 mainly for the sound adjustability.

The PE sounds deep and loud, the N1 is not as deep but I still like the sound of it but GReddy is my fav

rumor has it.. the N1 is way too loud. and rumor also has it that the RSR was the best ever made for the 5th gens... however, i've never any besides my apex'i megaphone dunk.. and i wanna sell it.. $325 takes it if you want it. deep when driven normal, screams when driven hard, and scares little children.

well the N1 is rumored to be pretty damn loud, but its not the loudest one out there. My friends TRM is WAY louder then the N1. And my previous DC exhast was a lot deeper in the low range but the N1 screams midrange and top end. but this is only about 150 miles with the exhaust right now, i think the packageing still needs to settle.

DY101 just got his N1 and it is loud but like he said no where as loud as our freinds TRM! I have Greddy EVO and that is pretty loud but deep also! I love my EVO I just like the way the N1 looks so much better! With the OEM Kit the N1 fits perfect and just looks race ready!!

sounds burbly at the low end? is this good burbly or bad burbly? Like a small block chevy with a cam in it which would be good or farty which would be bad.

what does the GReddy PE sound like? GReddy just updated their website and I read about it, and it looks like it might be their best performing exhaust and loudest?

oh man, that is soooo EXACTLY WHAT I WANT!! So you guys say the TRM is louder?? I personally like the look of the N1 better that the TRM which is basically why i'm looking into it

Yeah I am pretty sure the PE tested the best in a Magazine like Import Tuner. The N1 was a close second I believe and was like 1 hp away from the PE.

But would that really tell you anything? The cars dynoed could have been force fed with fans, and the engine would have been more heated by the end of the testing. I wouldnt go by magazines. The N1 and PE could have been tested first and got the best gains while the other exhausts could have tested last.

I heard the TRM with and without the silencer, two words...silencer required. It sounds like a motorcycle without it and with the silencer it is still way louder than stock. Now I can see why Jigglybutt always get hauled over
