I will be running a turbo setup on my LC Hatch with a BETA swap, HOWEVER, I'm looking to having the exhaust installed prior to the motor and want to see if anyone has one installed on theirs (accent or tiburon 4 cylinders)?
How does it sound? High Pitched or more deep and mellow? I'll have a full 2.5" with up to a 3" once it's turboed.
If anyone can let me know it would be greatly appreciated.
I know on my Prelude (2.3 DOHC NON VTEC T3/T4) it was deeper while on my old Civic (1.8L DOHC VTEC 12.1:1 NA) it sounded like most other "fart cannons".
Of course, the turbo sound with me EXPONENTIALLY different (and will sound 100 times better) but I'm talking N/A at this point with the little 1.5 or 1.6?

Mine is a N1 clone, not the genuine item. It's a pretty good knockoff though and sounds pretty similar.
1.6l, SRI, 4-2-1 header, 2.5" midpipe, 2,25" rear section to Apexi N1 knockoff.
