Hello everyone,
So I purchased both the Jun BL Mid Pipes and Cat-Back Exhaust with the Electronic Valve Control. For the purposes of this review, i only swapped the OEM mid pipes and catback exhaust with this product, and I'm assuming the sound will change once I've installed the NGT HFC Primaries.
I would like to give a written review but a video on my Instagram"@andenschmitt" is up with both in cab and out of cab sounds.
To provide context, this exhaust is the new version from Jun BL that has a wireless remote and box that will mount using zip ties in the trunk (see pictures), fairly self explanatory installation for the EVC and the rest of the installation for the exhaust didn't change. No instructions were included which was a negative in my book, which means that the less than mechanically inclined individuals will be forced to seek professional help for installation. The mid pipes were self explanatory for install.
Sound:
With the Valve "On" (Valve Open - Full Performance) you here a rasp like sound that is subtle but satisfying, during regular acceleration you'll hear it louder than you would hear it at WOT (mostly because the engine is louder and it drowns out the exhaust). There is absolutely no drone, at any RPM, and when cruising you barely hear the exhaust over the road noise (OEM sound proofing sucks).
With Valve "Off" (Valve Closed) you hear an OEM like sound, even during regular acceleration and WOT.
Neighbors:
They don't complain when I come home with the Valves Open at 3am, nor do they report ever waking up to the sound of be pulling into my garage, that being said the sound of the exhaust ONLY gets to about a 6 when accelerating normally.
Opinion:
Don't get this exhaust, get the "Racing" exhaust if you're going for pure performance, it weights less and performs slightly better due to having little to no restriction in the Cat-Back; however, if you're worried about when a cop pulls you over or if you're pushing the limits with daily driving, than I recommend getting this exhaust because its impossible to tell without looking under the car that you have a modified exhaust so less likely to get a ref ticket. I also suggest taking the car to an audio shop and getting it sound proofed better.
