I'm so used to Americans turning Miatas into fart boxes that I expected this to sound awful, but holy fuck it sounds amazing. It's somehow loud without being raspy, and in the high RPMs it sounds like a K20. I think this is the best sounding 4 cylinder exhaust note I've ever heard.
S2k over any miata all day bro. Dont let the miata hivemind re brainwash you. Former nb owner here. Current and forever ap1 owner here. They all told me the s2k is "too rough" "too expensivr" "not worth it unless track" and i daily the turbo ap1 and its sooo much better
does the hardtop make the noise while driving top-up more bearable? I have the megan racing axle back but no hard top and as it is the noise when I drive with the top up reverbs pretty bad.
Stock is loud enough. Honestly. You get a lot of intake noise in the cabin, and with the top down you get reverb from the exhaust note coming back and around the car. It's perfectly fit. Anything else and it'll be uncomfortable, you'll find your ears ringing on long rides.
I assume any header with a catalytic converter should produce a similar sound. I know yours is catless, but what was the diameter of the resonator (muffler) you chose? Did you straight-pipe the midpipe all the way to the exit?
Maybe I’m in the minority, but I’ve never had a problem with how the stock exhaust sounds. As the driver, it really matters only what I hear anyway. But then I’m probably twice the age of a lot if you guys, so crazy amounts of attention is not my aim.
I feel you on that one. I like to switch the exhaust setup around and try something different every once in a while. I get tired of having the same exhaust if it’s been on over at least a year. The only downside is that it drones on the inside a lot which makes me want to go back to a stock exhaust😂 it sounds soo good on the outside though so I’ll have to put some sound deadening in.
bro video does do justice this thing sounds crazy. i’m looking at a nb miata as a project car, i have an elantra n but i don’t want to mod that because i don’t wanna void warranty, hyundais tend to go kaboom 😅 is yours original yellow or did you paint it?

3:27 the dog was enjoying it hahah
3:28 the dog 😂😂 it sounds so good though
doggo at 3:30 didn't believe his ears
It’s weird bc it sounds almost like a bike when you get higher in the power band pretty nice
That is the most glorious sounding Miata note that I've heard. Fantastic! 🥹
3:28 is defiently me whenever i hear a car outside , and that look around anyone else seeing this ? LOL
Love the video man, I’ve been struggling trying to find a new exhaust for my NB. Really appreciate this vid! 🤙🏼
That things a little ripper! Love these kinds of videos
Dam hearing this makes me regret selling my Nb, loving my s2k though, ill get back into a Miata one day :D
I feel the same way

love the low sounding exhaust, not too raspy, almost none really.
The dog at 3:20 is epic but even better is the sound passing by the oncoming car 4:00
that exhaust note is so nice
Sounds awesome mate, this is how I want my NB to sound.
Honestly this thing sounds surprisingly good. I’m picking up an NB Miata this weekend. Hopefully it sounds as good as yours.
Sounds amazing. Definitely want a similar tone when I get an exhaust
thanks bro im getting my NB this week im gonna keep up with your journey fam hope to ride with you some day
omg i need this sound on my nb miata ♥
Clean ass Miata.
3:25 "what the dog doin?"
He's a good boye, only having a heckin look
It sounds great man!
W vid man I’m looking at getting an NB next year. Super great video!! Keep it up. Maybe do a POV drive or something
Appreciate it my boy💪
Car looks like it says grrr with the headlight lovers lol love it
Nice sounds clips and nice to see another SC tagged beauty. 👍🏼
sounds like those videos of a moped with a trombone player on the back 🤣
dude, this thing sounds lovely!😮💨🤝
Very cool. My setup used to sound exactly like this.
It actually sound good , sound like my civic si with Skunk2 exhaust
Civics are sweet, unfortunately I never had a Honda but owned a Miata since 2004. I love that Honda appreciates JDM so much.
That dog was like: Goddamn that sound good!
From far it looks like a motorcycle, it's crazy !!!
dude it sounds amazing, I've been thinking about doing a little more to my exhaust. not sure what to do though
got my my 01 nb miata special edition at the exhaust shop right now
daaaamn nice miata, sounds insane
Need more content on this beauty 😩
Incredible I need the same 😳
That’s a killer tone. I’ve got long tube headers into a small resonator then a gutted alfa romeo Giulia muffler. I like your sound better 🤣
Here’s an idea. Do this but shirtless
bumper cut ma boy
does the hardtop make the noise while driving top-up more bearable? I have the megan racing axle back but no hard top and as it is the noise when I drive with the top up reverbs pretty bad.
Hardtop makes a big difference and reduces the sound a lot. Also depends on how good the condition of the top is but everything is fixable.
That does have a cool sound, but I'm looking for a quiet ride.
What's the best set up for that?
Stock is loud enough. Honestly. You get a lot of intake noise in the cabin, and with the top down you get reverb from the exhaust note coming back and around the car. It's perfectly fit. Anything else and it'll be uncomfortable, you'll find your ears ringing on long rides.
I would start off with an axle back exhaust. Maybe cobalt axle back

CLEAN.
do some pov driving videos
Soon!
What headlight cover/eyebrow are those?!! Looks sick
I was thinking the same. Slightly giving me S15 vibes
Jetstream
Is it a resonated mid pipe? sounds amazing man
Yes there is a resonator in the middle
the quietest one possible because its not a 600cc with a 16k redline
What brand are the front lip and side skirts?
Edit: also the ducktail spoiler
GV lip, Mazda speed skirts, jet stream spoiler
