Default Quieter exhaust compared to Js 60rs?

Hey guys

After a year with the Js 60rs I think it's time for something quieter. Don't get me wrong I love the sound the 60rs makes its got depth and body to it and even burbles slightly too, hell my gf likes it and hates the idea of getting rid of it. But it's a bit on the loud side when I'm waking up early for track and autox events. Sometimes my ear even rings.

I'm not too overly concerned about power because what's 5 hp, I'm definitely trying to find something that weighs similar to the 60rs SS.


TLR in search of a quieter single exit. That has depth and body to the tone.

I read my options were: evs 70ssp, t1 70r-em, and hks hi power.

i have the same exhaust. the track is about 2 hours away for me. i always slap in the silencer going there and back. makes for a pretty tame ride.

t1 70r-em
Nope.

Well I have no idea how loud the 60mm J's exhaust is, but the dual 70em I had was anything but quiet. They sound fantastic though.

At first it's was not too bad but now it's just over the cusp of being a bit loud. I think the exhaust itself is actually not that loud compared to my n1s on my old wrx but because the exhaust is so close to me.

What's the noise level of the Js 60RS? My Tanabe Medalion Touring measures under 94dBA.

The HKS dual is very quiet...even without a test pipe.

I just took my 70RR off for track, now I have the Spoon N1 with OEM cat, car is now super quiet also, close to factory exhaust noise level...believe it or not.
