Thanks bro. I plan to go all motor and keep it clean and simple. Next mod is likely to be a header and some cosmetic under hood mods (valvecover, oil cap, etc.)

I wanted a Apex-i WSII but they were back ordered forever. I ordered it in July and then they told me September and when it didn't arrive I changed my order to the N-1. It's actually not that loud. If I drive hard its loud but as long as I keep the RPM's low and drive normally it's pretty quiet. Believe it or not I haven't been pulled over yet or followed for any reason. The cops here are chill for the most part and don't really pull you over unless they have a reason. which is why I keep a front plate and don't have tint on my front windows.

Has nothing to do with the N-1 fyi
lol it has to do with your engine, its carbon build-up, nothing serious, everyone has it
mine did that for the longest time until I used seafoam and it hasn't done it since

Thanks man... actually I haven't done a Db test for the exhaust. And as far as a cf hood... I'm not sure yet. Thinking about getting a vynil wrap done on the hood and lip to see how I like it and if it grows on me I'll go for the real deal and possibly a CF hatch. but right now i'm liking the all white.

Yeah, I guess it depends on where you're at. I do know how loud that muffler is though. N1 isn't made to be quiet. I know someone with a PY ITR, DC header, AEM CAI with that canister and he got pulled over few times. The car is pretty bright, somewhat low and the N1 is extremely noticeable. Most of the times and the probability is that cops just want to write you up and invade your privacy. But you're fine so far with it. If it isn't broken, don't fix it.

Try a ITR axle if you can't find a WS? I like the WS1 better than version 2 personally.

Wow,glad to hear that you walked away okay from that accident. That M6 is really nice and I do like the Eclipse as well. As for that mint Integra, I'm speechless. She is very nice. Do you have a vid on youtube of how the exhaust sounds? Also I want them GSR Blades lol.
