Here we go again, iv searched around and im still not sure which to get. My mods list is very small and i wana keep it that way. So far just the mugen hardtop, still needs to be painted, and a K&N FIPK. Im leaning towards the Q300 because it is more daily driver friendly due to less drone but the N1 style is very nice too. I did decide that I want to stick with dual for the looks and i dont like the exhaust hole cap out on the market for ap2s.

What im pretty much looking for is someone that has experienced both and what they think of them. Hows the drone, sound quality, performance improvements? As u can tell im not oriented performance all the way, i want a bit of everything, looks-sound-performance. If you have had experience with both let me know which you would chose for my application and why.

Thanks for your help guys,
Elvir

 

The n1 will make your ears bleed and everyone around. Do yourself a favor and get the q300 if it absolutely is between those two only. The q300 has a much more mature grunt at the low, and a mild scream at the top... the N1.. yuck.

 

Thanks for the input, thats what i figured, and i am in between thos two because iv seen alot of other people have success with them quality wise and i can get them for a great price, all my other choice cost twice as much if not more.

 

Ive had both and personally liked the q300 better, but if you want your car to sound mean and aggressive get the n1 but its really loud.

 

Had both, I couldn't even handle the n1 for an entire day, it is really loud. Q300 didn't look as nice IMO but sounded great and wasn't crazy loud.

 

sorry to knock on your opinion but the n1 sounds horrible. it sounds like a civic running open header. do yourself and everyone else a favor and go for the q300.

 

if you want really nice deep loud raspy sound get the n1...

i have owned it for about 4-5months and love it
it does egt loud but its a good loud, not no ricey fart can for sure.

but if you want about 1/2 the sound get the q300.

my friend has the q300 and people cant even tell he has a exhuast, not that loud IMO (unless your flooring it)
but the n1... once i drive into wherever he is they say man what kinda exhuast is that?
people love the sound of it!

 

^it does sound good from outside, but if you don't want some serious drone, then I'd go with the q300. My friends liked it but I hated driving my car with it. If you're a loud exhaust guy you could probably handle it and love it. If you're not sure though, or haven't already experienced it, I'd go with the q300...

 

I had the N1 on my first S2000.

it sounded good outside, but I just hated it anyway because it just wasn't livable.

My CT on the other hand is only deep down low...cruising is stock-like.

 

Thats the only issue i have with the q300, if it sounds too similar to stock then why not just stick to stock, other than weight saving. Is it really that similar to stock in the lower rpm range? I daily drive and i rarely go over 4k unless i need to pass someone. I dont want my ears to bleed but i want some low and deep grunt even in the lower rpm range.
