Neither of these cars have/had a cat. Neither of us have ever been hassled by the cops about noise, either. The Noir also runs pretty cheap (relatively), too.
I should also add that this exhaust is compatible with the Apexi ATS. Plug one of those in and be in silent mode!
I might pick one of these up for my s13, The exmag is totally sleeper looking, not quiet by any means... but I LOVE the exhaust note with that thing.
