Idk about that, about every J's exhaust that I have seen - especially the Ti ones - are nothing to write home about.

Aww man i'm bummed, I have an 06 and was planning on getting the 70mm V2 toda exhaust. Anyone with an 06+ using the Toda 70mm v1 without the helmholtz resonator?

Would you happen to have photos directly behind? Another thing I am super picky about is how the exhaust fills in the AP2 rear. IMO not many exhausts look good with the AP2 rear, stupid oval cutouts.
The turbo will make it "quieter"? Don't you mean louder? Unless you're referring to drone in which case FI generally removes drone...

Sounded pretty good, nothing crazy but you could definitely notice it wasn't stock.
With oem cat it had some drone around 2500rpm, nothing to bad though.

I just saw these now. Videos never do exhaust tone justice but from what I heard this system is quite restrained. Smooth sounding and deep but not way louder than stock. That might work for some people

Turbos make cars quieter since the exhaust gases have to go through and push the turbine before it exits, but because most boost people want more and more power, they run exhausts with very little restriction, so a lot of turbo cars are loud.

Turbocharging and its effect on our soundscape

Superchargers will make cars louder though.

On top of that the welds are sometimes not very straight or neat. My Amuse has much better welds on the outside than any J’s I have seen, but then again they secure the center muffler baffle with a tiny tac weld lol

I found the fitment and weld quality to be great. I can't comment on comparison to Amuse systems as I haven't seen them in person though.
I'm 100% happy with my J's Racing FX70RS Titanium single

I have seen and heard that J's quality is kinda hit and miss with their newer parts. I think the quality was much better before
