We went with the Borla Atak. It sounds amazing. It turns heads wherever we go and even my die hard V8 buddies think it sounds like the best 4 cylinder ever.

Idle sound is sweet indeed, absolutely love idle sound.

i love the stock exhaust and those prices are pretty serious lol. thanks for the vid and for all yall out there hacking the resonators off, stop it. 🤙

This is perfect timing as I'm looking at which exhaust fits my build and budget. Thanks brotha!

Although I don't have a KN, I did opt for the Stillen mid-pipe for my EN (yet to install). Yes I could've just deleted my single resonator for "the sound" but after seeing Polish Bullitt's dyno results, inperson, for just the axle-back back...I'm sold! He gained 17 whp and 31 wtq and it sounds GREAT🏁🏁

@CaliforniaKonaN he is...but with the Stillen TruControl you can turn it on/off, so he did on the first pull. His baseline from May 23' was 277/283, then with the exhaust and NO help from the piggyback it made 293/314, saw it live in mid Dec 23'. Turned on Stillen TruControl it made 330/353...AMAZING!

Very nice 👍

Thanks man! I believe the passenger side of the muffler / exhaust tip opens and closes and thats where the valve is.

Wish more of these came in axle-back only options. I have the SXTH downpipe, AFE midpipe and OEM axle-back. Decided I want to upgrade the axle-back, but I’m limited by options now since I don’t want to buy an “extra” midpipe.

@CaliforniaKonaN

Ah yeah def have to mix and match and sounds like a custom configure setup. Would the aFe axle-back work if you used that to replace the OEM one?

@@CaliforniaKonaN Appreciate you, my guy!

I hate pops lol, burbles are cool. I purchased the borla for the louder idle deep tones. Now N mode isn’t usable in my opinion given how aggressive it is but that’s ok. I can keep it in normal mode and not have to keep switching it every time I start the car. I don’t like the black tips as it removes the contrast of the silver tips surrounded by the black fear fairing.

I need more single res delete videos. I was thinking about just deleting the middle one (NA) bc i want zero drone and for it to sound basically stock in normal but I just want louder pops

@CaliforniaKonaN

I've heard from a few owners that even deleting both resonators will still have zero drone. Def hit up @TheSoulofmyCivic on YT and IG (the single res delete vid). She'd have more insight as well!

I have a question, since this is an SUV at the end of the day, is insurance cheap? Or do they still consider this a sport car for some reason?

@CaliforniaKonaN

3 ай бұрын

I pay high, cause bundled with my partner who is a new driver (they don't recognize internal experience) and also my area I live is probably the highest accident rates in California. I believe they would still classify this as a Hyundai CUV / SUV, not sure if they'll flag as a sports car in the traditional sense. Also the whole thing with the Kia Boyz and insurance companies denying Hyundai / KIAs though 2018 and lower models probably doesn't help!
