Sounds good from outside but on decel it drones. I don't think I am that old but it got too loud for daily driving. The weight savings was great but I went back to the stock exhaust.
I'm still rockin' the one I picked up from you on my car

I actually like the fact that the tip looks so stock-Toyota-Corolla-ish. When the cops hear a loud car coming and look at your exhaust, they think "No way is so much noise coming out of that puny stock exhaust, guess I'll let him go."

versionJDM, did you put the test pipe on as well? When I installed it I was afraid of it being too loud so I left the test pipe off. Then a week ago I picked up a Megan resonated test pipe and threw that one on instead. I've noticed that the drone doesn't seem to be as bad anymore. It sounds a little more like a throaty kind of growl...

What does it sound like with out the test pipe? I had thought about installing it from just the cat back, but I said what the hell and put it all on. I love it... I think it sounds some what like a sport bike. And as far as looks go, I like the understated look of the Spoon N1. It sets it apart from all the rest.

In my experience when I had it on from the cat back, it was deep, and sounded pretty boomy at times, along with some drone (especially on decel in the 3-4K RPM range). It was pretty loud, but I liked it a lot. I can't really compare it with how it would sound with the Spoon test pipe in, because I never installed it, nor have I ever heard another car with it in.
