Hey guys, im out fishing for an exhaust and have my eyes on the Spoon N1. I've youtubed a few videos of it and I love the tone it makes. But I'm worried if it is drivable, in terms of loudness. IT did not sound THAT loud in the videos but well it could be different in real life.

What I'm after is anyone who has personal experience with these mufflers to share with me their thoughts and opinion. Good? Bad? Too loud? Good to drive daily?? If not what would you recommend to get instead

Cheers

i used it as a daily, was bearable imo
i was using toda header, sard cat, spoon b pipe , n1 muffler
yours wont as loud if your just using the n1 on a oem b pipe

Ahhh good insight. I am most likely keeping the stock b pipe and sticking on the n1 muffler with toda or spoon headers. Which ever header i can find at a good price. I been constantly watching vids of it at work and it keeps getting better and better. Especially when that V-TEC kicks in. oh me gerd

PS: Would you know if its street legal?

Get the silencer. Im running the j's cat back with high flow cat and jdm 4-1 headers and the rear muffler simular to spoon N1 and without the silencer its totally loud and gets cops attention.

Currently have it on my car, it's loud but really bearable! 4-2-1,100c cat, t1r be pipe and the n1.
Only on freeways it sometimes gets annoying

injen cai, toda header, spoon n1 catback... love it... i dont daily my car anymore, but when i did I had no problems.. ion the 3 years of having this engine/exhaust setup, I have been pulled over a number of times for brekaing the law and never have the highwway patrol tried to defect me touchwood.

honestly the spoon n1 is a great sounding exhaust... took it around the old pac last weekend and being surrounded by rock and some right foot action at around 4k rpm.. ****ing loving life, feel sorry for deaf ppl!
