Default Apexi n1 exhaust?

Who is happy with this exhaust?

Considering it as an upgrade, but I have heard conflicting info, some say that resonated is too quiet, some say it's just enough and although I wouldn't mind more volume if I went unresonated, I don't wanna deal with too much drone or a lower quality "tone".

If I do the resonated one, would it be louder than stock cat and resonator delete? I did that to my TE and volume went up by about 20% and recently reinstalled a vibrant resonator that gave it a much better tone while keeping most of the volume increase.

Really wish there was a way to increase volume while keeping the factory titanium axleback. It has a nice high pitch tone that is a little more refined than regular axleback but needs a bit more volume, I wonder if a bigger midpipe without swapping the axleback would do the job?

Hello,

Non-resonated will has drone. Yes the resonated one is louder than a stock exhaust with resonator delete.

You can always change just the midpipe and keep the factory axle back.

Let us know, have some in stock.

I have the axlebacks only and like them but they are still too quiet. No drone on the highway and only a slight buzz at 2500 RPM.

I may add a non-res midpipe at some point or just run custom piping.

I have the axle back as well and they are awesome vs stock. I prefer the deep grumble and when you open it up on the freeway, it sounds better. Noticed some drone between 1600-2000 RPM, slightly different from @KennyFSU Side note: took my brothers for a ride yesterday and they like the sound when I was pushing 100mph

Yup, a popular one is GTHaus mid-pipe while keeping stock axleback.
