Won't be $1,500 for this level of work, but also won't be unreasonably high either. 27WON does price their products well historically.
it does look great from here, craftsmanship wise. Its definitely top of the list for me when I am ready to put an exhaust in the car
Good call out. Also worth mentioning there's Interweb sound and then there's sound in reality.
It's a real thing that bothers people. Nothing controversial about that.
I have to admit that yes with this platform I've seen more sensitive owners than any car community I've been apart of.
Corey and I have no complaints thus far about cabin volume, we both expressed interest in receiving units with resonated midpipes. That's the key part, you want to to keep a middle resonator in with any exhaust to mitigate drone.
compared to most other cars, drone doesnt seem as bad on the fl5 imo. i have the awe touring on my fk8 and while the drone is tolerable in 6th when cruising, i most def. wouldnt take it on a roadtrip lol
The OEM FL5 exhaust is drone free but too quiet (IMO). The stock exhaust on the FE1 Si is louder and sounds better. I don't think it's unreasonable to want a better sounding after-market exhaust that doesn't drone. I'm already a bit annoyed that I need to spend more money to get the sound that Honda should have provided stock (I get the reasons why they did this). I want something that looks stock, that sounds better, but doesn't ruin the daily drivability of the car with drone. I'm hopeful that this is the one.
Because the desire for more volume and a drone free experience are not mutually exclusive.
I feel this comes with a price tag most aren't willing to pay. Spoon and Mugen comes to mind.
This is funny because I think 27won exhaust sounds like stock lol
Touché. The willingness (or maybe ability) to pay is a curious concept on this forum. You have people in this thread hoping this exhaust will be ~$1,500. Doubtful. There's zero incentive for 27Won to sell this exhaust for less than $2,000.
