And that exhaust is now on MY car
I also have it paired with the Invidia Midpipe
Got pulled over once, but ehhh, the sound of it is AMAZING
Neighbors definitely hate me though! The morning starts aren't as fun

Thank you for all the input guys (and ladies).
It appears there may not be an option for me.
If I could only hear all of these options in-person lol.
I'm going to ask my shop for opinions, they have always done very well for me.
When I called the owner today to tell him I'd probably be coming back in swap out my stock exhaust, he commented that he figured he'd hear back from me.
Maybe he has an option that works for me. I don't want to hack my stock exhaust really, but I wonder if a very mellow Magnaflow(s) or something may work?
Thx!
I'd really like to know what the inside cab sounds like at 3-4K while driving.

I too was contemplating getting the invidia mid pipe but have been up in the air over purchasing it.

What is everyone's opinion on which setup would be louder:
F sport intake, invidia, and f sport exhaust
Or
F sport intake, invidia, and hks hi power with silencers?
Thoughts?

^ Haha yes that's true😜 but what about with? I'm curious. I think some of the raspiness would help balance out the deep tone of the hi-power plus the silencers. Can't make up my mind😁.

I have the HKS hi-Powered with a magnaflow resinator and after 3,000 rpms it pretty loud inside the cabin. Most probably wouldn't like it. I suggest getting a Fsport exhaust and call it a day!

I have the f sport intake and hks hi power right now. It's loud but it's the drone on the freeway that gets me sometimes. Around town, accelerating are all fine. It's like 2k-2300 rpms at 70-80mph that kill me.

Is there a silencer for the F-sport exhaust? Can it be custom made?
