I think this set-up will sound very loud. If there is any power increase it will only be 1 or 2 HP

My friend is running a straight pipe with a 5zigen muffler. I drove it a couple times and it's freakin loud, but i kinda got used to it after a while. It had some good power to it too. Now isn't the 5zigen much louder than the Apexi N1? If i'm right then the N1 shouldn't be too bad.

I have the apexi N1 muffler and a straight pipe on my EG hybrid. It's not that bad as long as your are not always pedal to the metal. If anything, the smell of the exhaust fumes is worse then the sound. As long as you are easy on the gas, it's not thaty loud but once at WOT, be prepared to scared some grannies on the road!

Fumes? I didn't really smell anything in my friends EK. Is it because you guys have an EG or is that how all straight piping is.
