@@00stlouie When I switched to the Track version, it took about a week to get used to the loudness/drone, but I love the deeper tone over the Touring. Drone level is like having a Tomei exhaust but it’s not that bad once you’re used to it.
For the price, you can’t go wrong with AWE, especially since it comes with a front pipe! I decided to keep the Track version installed since I prefer the deeper tone it has compared to the Touring.
@@antiflg530 With an aftermarket catted downpipe, cruising at around 75 mph is surprisingly not that bad with the Track edition (at least in my opinion). It’s there, but with a slight hum. It’s not as intense when accelerating. With the Touring edition, drone is minimal when cruising at highways speeds.
@@Ebelon Track version definitely has drone over the Touring, especially since I’m running a aftermarket catted DP. But I prefer the extra loudness honestly and it fits the Type R’s presence, I also don’t mind the drone since I have a high tolerance for it. The loudness and drone is all subjective though when watching videos online, and it’s best to try to ride with someone who has a track and experience it first hand. But overall there is significant drone at around (3-4k rpms). But as a daily driver, I don’t usually drive past that unless I’m driving spiritedly. And are you talking about modifications in general? Or modifications to lessen the drone?
@@Ebelon Adding any aftermarket DP will increase the volume and/or drone due to the increased exhaust flow, especially going the catless route. That’s why I opted for catted instead to help suppress the drone, since the track version literally only has one resonator in the mid pipe. With this combo, It’s not too raspy or crazy loud, but still has a bold and deep sound that I like.
@@philipc3153 I do know that at a standstill, the Track version with stock DP will reach 96 decibels (reving up to the stock limiter at 3500) and possibly reaching over 100 decibels when driving. So Touring will be a little bit below those numbers.
Ordered my AWE Track and RV6 DP yesterday.. sooooo stoked
@@00stlouie Nice! Definitely going to be an aggressive and deep tone, it will be a big step up in regards of volume! Hope you don’t mind drone lol.
I drive about 25 miles a day. I’ll be fine

Finally a video of sound clips
I honestly like both. My buddy has touring on his FK8 and it’s by far best CTR I’ve heard.

@@Nattypisois there a lot or any drone on the highway on yours?

Getting mine put in tomorrow, can’t wait to get rid of this vacuum cleaner
@@allen2879 Nice! Which version did you end up going with?
@@Nattypiso touring with black tips
@@allen2879 Good choice, definitely louder than stock with minimal to no drone!
The cold starts almost sound reverse labeled!? Interesting
The Touring has a slightly higher pitch when compared to the Track due to its 180 resonator, since it eats up most the deeper frequencies/drone.
@@Nattypiso , makes sense! Thanks, mate
Is it true that the Track version has a lot of drone? And if there if so, what mods do you recommend if one was to get track instead of the touring.

To lessen drone. I saw you mention TSP down pipe. Wonder if that made any differences on the drone.

Thanks. Very informative. Appreciate the breakdown. I'm trying to do as much research before making modifications.
It sounds like an srt4 with less popping
I wonder how many deciibles track vs touring is.

What downpipe do you have?
I have TSP’s High efficiency Downpipe.
@@Nattypiso 2 things 1 do you have your ecu unlocked and tuned. 2 if it’s not tuned and locked do you have a check engine light
@@ayalaa6455 Unlocked and tuned. In regard to TSP’s Downpipe, no CEL whatsoever since installing in September of last year.
@@Nattypiso ok nice thanks
