I do know that someone blew sound at a national tour with the t1r muffler and this one is smaller so I wish you the best of luck. Locally nobody should care but its nice to not have any rule breaking things on the car just in case at a national level you are in the trophies

UPDATE TO MOD #24/ 25
So after contacting Patrick @ Urge I got the STR midpipe which is smaller in diameter than the non str model.
here is a picture before install
After the installation the car still sounded a bit loud which worried me a lot since the car is being built to perform in SCCA regulated events.
I took the car to a straight away near my house which had a couple houses and trees but for the most part was empty and I got a DB reading of 92.3 which kinda relaxed my thoughts on the exhaust. I feel like the noise was bouncing off all the building/ vehicles etc and making it louder. After the installation I did go to an autocross event and the car sounded tame compared to the other car which clearly had louder vehicles.

I will have to do a test at an SCCA event in the next couple of weeks to get an accurate reading @ Metlife stadium since it is an very open area.
here are clips of the exhaust sound but VIDEO does not do this exhaust justice as it sounds different in person.

MOD # 26
Puffo Intake
I did upgrade my intake to a Puffo Intake this was to reduce heat soak from the hot autocross events during the summer.
I will be upgrading the intake arm later down the line to Titanium or Aluminum coated/wrapped to have colder air reaching the intake.
Next Mod will be a Tune by Karcepts -
this will be on 93 octane and 100 octane to see what these parts can actually do.
