I was just thinking, after reading about how loud it is from various people, would it be that loud if the s was bone stock? All the owners that I've spoken to have one thing in common, that's that their ride had several engine mods. So, is it still more of a pain than it's worth for daily driving in a otherwise factory s?

I want the Amuse mostly for power and ununiformity, everyone and their mom is rockin Greddy, Buddy Club or Invidia Turbo exhausts. I want to think outside of the box. Therefore the all blue R1000 would be dopeness... Fortunately, I do research before finding out the hard way that I will lose my hearing by the age of 25 if I'm running around with this exhaust apparently. I know I'm a n00b to this forum and all but, I could really use some experienced advice. Since no one here in Orlando apparently plays with the S. (yes, an overexaggeration)

Thanks!

 

Yes, it will be loud even on a stock S.

 

theres a comparo vid somewhere...might be on youtube. but it compares the volumes of a bunch of the major jdm exhausts on otherwise stock s2000s

 

it's gonna be loud regardless.

 

have you looked at t1r? they have not so loud to very loud 70mm exhausts that make as much power or more thane the amuse. i have the loudest t1r and its not bad i get alot of compliments too

 

Amuse also makes many exhaust with a resonator that bring the sound level down, yet still save huge amounts of weight and offer a great sound.

 

if you want gains and quietude, check the T1R-EM. it's very nice.

 

Single exhaust + NA S2000 = LOUD

I personally love Amuse, but I could never spend over $2,000 on exhaust. If you want Amuse for the power, just go with the T1R 70R non-resonated. It's loud as hell but so is the R1. If you want the look and the power, there are certain things you'll have to sacrifice.

 

I checked out that vid but, since I don't have a real scale to compare to I don't really know what the decibels feel like. By comparing I mean like 110 db is like a modified supra and 90 in the car is like an airplane. Know what I mean. I'm just saying that it was a guide but, for everyday life and what it sounds like inside the car it's hard to tell.

 

I was reading that thread that HvRRz made and apparently the T1R that you're talking about, I think, is the loudest you can buy. It's the only other that I'd consider at this point but, if it's louder than the Amuse then it defeats the purpose. I like the fact that it's so light weight though. The T1R looks really nice, I am in no rush so I'm just reading through.


I looked at the T1R-EM, I'm going to be honest and say I don't like the look of it at all but, you're right it'd be the best if I wanted quiet power.

Thanks for the help so far guys.
