Invidia Q300 vs N1 Exhaust
 

I'm in the market to purchase either an Invidia Q300 or N1 exhaust for 2013 Forester XT but I'm really on the fence in terms of which one to get. I love the aggressive boxer growl the N1 provides but I'm a little concerned about the cabin noise it might cause. When I'm driving by myself I could care less, but when I have passengers I still want to have a conversation if possible without yelling lol. The exhaust will be installed along with an invidia up-pipe and downpipe divorced wastegate. For those who have experience with these setups any advice you can provide in terms of experience with noise, drone, happiness etc. with either exhaust will be greatly appreciated. As I mentioned I want a nice deep boxer growl for my fozzy without going too crazy in the process.

Thanks in advance everyone

both are deep sounding and great for boxer rumble. I prefer the 300 cause its more mild and less drone durng normal driving. both sound good when u step on it.

N1s sound terrible IMO. If drone is a problem for you, esp since it's a Forester, that pretty much excludes all canister exhausts as options.

If cabin noise is your concern, you could always install dynamat in your car, above the muffler and maybe your resonator too.
