looking for a new muffler w/silencer. how do they sound on a gsr w/2 1/4 catback? which is better in ur opinion? btw for n/a applications

 

The 5zigen is not a loud exhaust with the N1 your car will sound like a Zero!

 

ya, i have the 5zigen fireball and its sweet. Nice sound, and not to loud at all. heres a pic hope this helps ya.

 

Friend of mine has 5Zigen on his 01 gsr and its badass! Sweetest sound and when it hits vtec and goes to 8k...sooo fresh!

 

I've heard a couple of rusting problems with the 5zigen from a couple of members. Apparently, the muffler packing rusts out prematurely.

 

does the fireball come wit a optional silencer? i kno u can get one with the n1. btw andrekun that fireball looks nice on ur car!

Yes the Fireball will come with a silencer. But it doesn't get that loud to warrant one. My GF has one on her LS, sounds really nice and deep, but doesn't drone like other exhausts. The N1 is cool, if you like loud and raspy.

 

wat do u mean by "raspy"? again this is going on a 2 1/4in. catback

 

Exactly what that means. The N1 sounds rapsy, as in it's not "clean". It can get annoying at times. Basically, it sounds like your typical ricer exhaust.

 

so u mean like a go-kart/lawn mower type of sound.

 

yup

 

all of the N1 exhaust I have heard sounds like bee'z

 

i love my racing medallion

 

TENABE Racing Medallion all the way.

 

how loud is the racing medallion?

 

Yeah haha, the N1 sounds like an angry bumblebee.

 

I have the N1 catback on my car now and i think it sounds pretty sweet...thinking of selling it in favor of the ES Oval Muffler with some 2.5" custom piping..the N1 draws too much attention for my taste

 

Since I am going custom on my Apex N1 muffler...will it sound loud, raspy, and annoying angry bees with a RESONATOR?

 

N1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!

 

silencers really tone down the sounds alot....
my cuzin knows has a tanabe racing medallion on his SI
and i will only ride with him if he has the silencer on
