J's Racing FX 50RS Titanium

I plan on ordering the j's axleback from ajr for my ge8 but i just wanted some final info about it. I've searched the forums and read as much as i could and seen all the youtube clips i could find but I'm still not so sure about the loudness. I love the look of the j's titanium and like the sound clips i've heard. but some people have said that its very loud, however i've also heard the spoon n1 is just as loud or louder. so my question is without headers or a b pipe, just the axleback is it really going to be that loud? thanks

i already try the J's
and it is not too loud if you not change the headers ( in GE the the headers cant be change, you can change the downpipe only) or the B-Pipe...
it come very loud if you change all of your pipe....
sounds like race car

and you can buy the additional silencer....

thanks

"Loud" is a matter of opinion...

I run a J's Header, Megan Testpipe, J's B-Pipe, and used to own a J's Axleback. Way too loud for my 36 year old ears!

Reinstalling the cats would tone it down but that's NOT an option for me so I went with an A'pexi WS II axleback and that was much more acceptable.

almost bought the j's for mine, i just didn't want to wait 8 weeks. they build them from scratch 1 by one + delivery from j-pan, it's loud but not nearly as loud as the j's RR. that thing is like not having a muffler at all

I have a J's installed on my GD and when I first ran it I ran only the axleback. It sounded barely louder than stock on the acceleration side. It was actually louder on the decel.

I have since upgraded to custom madrel bent catback and it is now louder on the accel side but it is a deep tone. Not raspy or obnoxious at all. It's totally managable IMO. I will be installing a weapon r race header on Friday so I will be able to give you an update after that.

If it helps give any idea, I can still hear my intake tone on top of the exhaust when at full song. Something that I haven't had on any of my previous cars.

you could quiet down the car a lot and i do mean A LOT if you got a different b-pipe (something with a resinator). if you want to quiet down a little i would love to trade my T1R b-pipe for your j's racing b-pipe (plus cash on my side of course)

Tried it already. I attempted a Megan B-Pipe and it didn't quiet it down much significantly. I'm staying with the J's B-Pipe....I get a kick out of telling people my B-pipe costs more than most people's complete cat back exhausts!

wow i really thought changing the b-pipe really would help. oh well i guess that means i have to shell out for a new one.

i know exactly how you feel though. i have the j's racing cat-delete and it cost more than some people cat-back exhaust

So, now that I have a race header installed I must retract my previous statements somewhat.

This car gets racecar loud with a wide open exhaust. It sounds really good but it does get loud. The tone stays deep in the lower rpm range but after about 3800-4000 rpm it opens up and it sounds like like the J's Fit you see in videos.
