Default Quieting Down Exhaust

whats going on guys..just needed an opinion, i just put a header and a resonated test pipe on my car, and with my Apexi N1 its so loud its unbearable. But i have a friend who wants to trade me his apexi World Sport axle back for my N1, how much if at all do you think that will quiet it down? and would it be better to snag the whole system, and not just the axle back, or would the piping be relatively the same for my N1 and his WS? thanks in advance guys

From what I've heard, world sports are very quiet... plus that test pipe would probably be the culprit for quite a bit of the noise; but apexi n1's are loud too. Combined together = deafening roar

yeah i've dealt with the N1 before...even on partial throttle is a pain.. a friend of mine had the WS and it was quiet until wide open throttle. not entirely sure if the piping is the same tho.

instead of test pipe high flow cat will also help you quiet down the exhaust

ya i know, its kind of a temporary setup until i can finish piecing together my turbo kit, but i think im gonna trade this kid and see how it goes, i really dont think it can get much louder so anything will be an improvement
