My APEX-I exhaust is quite

[turboblack2door]

i just put an APEX-I n1 exhaust on my car with a apexi 2 1/2 down pipe and my car is quiter than other cars with same exhaust. Why?

Who cares? Consider it a blessing. The loudness gets annoying after a while.

 

[turboblack2door]

i like the loudness

Do you have a cat and resonator on ?

 

[turboblack2door]

no cat just the resonator built into the exhaust

My apexi downpipe and catback screams, I'm sick of it tho...

 

[Dsm2nr89]

I'd say leave it the way it is then. If it's quiet yet still produces more hp than before it's a blessing. Most people get tired of the loudness sooner or later.. like the guy above

that's just the thing I'm not tired of the loudness and i've had it since i was 16 i'm now 23

Go straight pipe all the way back.

Others could have a different downpipe?

yours is new the glass pack is still good

old mufflers the glass pack is burnt out

just a guess

My N1 system is not quiet but it's not annoying like others. When I get on it it sounds perfect, not too quiet and not too loud; I love it especially at idle.

It's because of that resonator on there. Like somebody else said, if you went straight pipe all the way back, you would get that "loud" exhaust. I happen to like how quiet mine is...

 

[turboblack2door]

i know that resonator's in there to quite it down but a guy i work with has the same setup and his is a lot louder.

The muffler & resonator in this system are fiberglass packed & will tend to get louder as it gets some use & will continue to get louder over the years.

Mine was dB tested after about 6 months use then again recently about 3 years later & gained 8 or so dB, still using the exact same test method.
