It's pretty loud, especially with the silencer off. I like it that way though. It sounds great though, not like those little soup cans at Target. It's very deep in my opinion, and clean sounding.

I ended up taking the bolts off by torching them and just banging them out. Worked like a charm.

tell me more i installed apexi n1 along with random cat and about a month later 2 nuts loose and 1 bolt missing where cat bolts to header. i put some locking nuts on instead of ones supplied by random, seems ok now. i have kept silencer on (stealth mode). so im curious about backpressure issues. love the n1 catback less than 400$ from lightning shipped.

yeah my n1 hangs hella low. the hangers that come on it, are not in the best spots, so i had a shop cut them off and reweld them so the exhaust wouldn't hang so low.

speaking of hangers, last weekend at the track, i broke the 2 muffler hangers (for the second time). my muffler was dragging over bumps. all fixed again....for now. hnoes:

Yes, it definitly hangs low, which can make it a problem if your vehicle is lowered obviously. My car is not lowered at all, and the muffler still scrapes sometimes on my driveway if I don't drive at an angle.
