Hello from a new 2020 owner - I am ready to ditch the Active Sound module and add an exhaust, I am really sensitive to resonance/drone and am hoping for something with more personality than stock, but not loud and certainly not boomy in the cabin. I have exhausted my review search, understanding that this is subjective, but hoping those of you have experienced both can chime in. Also, if these are not the right contenders, I am willing to consider REMUS, etc.

Thank you very much!

Love the way you can add or subtract to dial it in to your own needs!

Is there a forum supporting MillTek vendor?

Also check out the Invidia Q300, that is basically the one other quiet option!
This. I kind of want to try one and see how it stacks up against my r400. If it had the same sound to it and not much quieter, without all the bass and boominess inside, I'd probably swap them out lol.

The 27won exhaust looks pretty good and they put a lot of research into removing resonance. I'd have to hear them in person.

I haven't heard a Remus in person, but every video I watch it sounds like raspy butthole.

Boost logic and sequence make valved exhausts that are pretty quiet. They're just more pricey being titanium.

Anyone know of a place that has the Hks exhaust in stock? I’ve searched everywhere and it’s back ordered or out of stock

Did you have a downpipe? I had no cat, plus both of those exhausts. HKS drones like hell on the highway. Milltek I can have a conversation with my wife in the car lol.
