Best Invidia Q300 vs R400 comparison Toyota86 & BRZ 

Thanks a lot :)

Seriously though!

Ima go with r400 on my 86

Glad to hear that! It's a great exhaust.

Does it have drone on highway and is it hard to line up the tips?

@@genli9526 No drone bro. When I installed it to the hangers the tips lined up perfectly and theyre adjustable anyway so it won't be an issue.

Shako Lokman how would you adjust it? From the hangers? Mine is just almost touching the plastic while the other tip is perfect

@@Krojix i was able to pull down on my passenger side exhaust tip before tightening the bolts at which point it stayed in a level position and hasn't moved yet, 9 months later. I happened across this video when contemplating switching the r400 for a q300. but after hearing this I'm deciding to stay with the r400 for sure. Thanks for the video!

Thanks! It is an amazing exhaust, you will love it!

Congrats! I remember the first time I heard it, smiles for days.

So what's the verdict?

What did you choose?

​@@synjhindb9892 R400. I ended up not even trying the Q300! I fell in love with the R400 and stuck with it! Haha! 😊

@@babylizards2309 Hell yeah! Could you make a video or two of your car and how it sounds for us?

@@DJHeroMasta I have a video taken from inside the car by a mate with window down that sounds awesome with the R400 and Sprintex supercharger (well.... I think so! 😎). The thing is, I have no idea how or where I'd post it! The thing about the R400 is that it is a pretty deep sound and if you're chugging along at low revs and don't bother to downshift (which is something you can get away with due to extra torque of SC), you get some pretty serious deep vibrations happening. Which then makes you downshift. Might not happen with the Q300. Don't know... Anyways.... Personally though I wouldn't change just because of that! I park at work in a basement car park and the sound in there is epic. Often the reason I go the work even though I could easily work from home! Ha ha. Fact! 😎

Thanks Justin! I haven't had any issues regarding sound or noise complaints but a cat-back paired with EL headers would sound good!!

Hey Im from Sydney and Im wanting to buy the R400 however you state that it attracted police; just wondering is the R400 really that loud (doesn't seem that loud in video) as there are plenty of cops in Sydney city I wouldn't want to buy something thats going to attract fines :)

Thought the same after seeing the R400 in a video, and it sounded plenty loud in person when I actually got it. It's one of those catbacks like Corsa which are loud on their own, and getting aftermarket headers/front pipe is guaranteed to grab attention. It did die down a little after a few days' settling in, though. I'm currently looking at the Empire Exhaust engine-back package after considering the Perrin and the Q300, which I know to be definitely around the 80db/4000rpm mark for legality. If you really want the R400 though, would be best to just keep your stock parts stored away. As long as you don't floor it going past police cars or unmarked police cars (really just the Commodores and Falcons with extra antennas, although I saw a dude pulled over by an unmarked Camry once), you should be fine.

Thanks William!

Dave Nguyen SAME HERE. I have fully stock FR-S and I know I need to do something with it lol

I got the q300 last week, is it true that it takes a couple of months to get how the final noise is going to be like?

@@saulespino2510 update on your sound?

@@saulespino2510 yes

@@saulespino2510 can you update me on this did the sound change ? Louder or quieter ? Tone change ? Or no difference ?

@@welldamn234 thanks!! thats great im sure its much more quieter with stock headers :/ i might go with the mxp comp rs

I just bought an Invidia q300, is it lighter than stock? did you notice any gains?

@@saulespino2510 it's actually 1lb heavier I believe.

Thanks!

Thanks, glad it helped!

Loud enough?

@@talentscoutreacts Its decently loud without being obnoxious.

Hero Of Ferelden ok I have heard from many that it’s too quiet.

@@talentscoutreacts It might be too quiet for some, but it's the perfect exhaust if you plan to get headers as that'll make it louder and hit the sweet spot in volume

even if you still have new UEL headers with cats will it still be obnoxiously loud?

If I come across them I definitely will and make the ultimate comparison video!

bought an r400 instead lol

Yeah the R400 sounds like a ricer Golf or Civic, and the Q300 is smoother and sounds beautiful... I decided to get a Q300 too :D.. Here are my future specs: - JDL Turbo Kit - Delicious Flex fuels System - Exhaust? Catted Header = better for emissions... - Unequal length header... - Invidia Q300 Wheels? Still deciding :D

There are adjustable hangers (4 for $40 I think) that would fix the issue

Yeah, most likely just during installation the hangers were a little bit askew on the car, they’re these rubber things that can rotate so just wiggle it around and centre everything before bolting everything down rly tight and you’ll be good

Erick Barbadian, I have a stock 2011 Wrx and am thinking of getting the R400. Would love to see a vid of your car 🙏

@@melikesutube sorry for late reply. I decided to go with the R400 the first try, I loved it but the droning in the cabin was getting too much, the rumble was explosive and was sex in my ears until I switched to q300 which I was pretty happy with. Perhaps I should upload mine later

if you end up getting the q300 double check the size, i ended up getting the 3 inch thats exclusive to australia and its almost as loud as an n2 with catless uel

Personally, my favourite is the R400

Q300 for sure.

The Q for sure 100%

R400 is ur choice i used all of invidia line and r400 is the best for me sound deep better than n1 and no drone with full catless of invidia + invidia el header

Awesome, thanks man. You're right, r400 sounds deeper and cleaner. Just ordered one, picking it up tomorrow!

@@stl8150 How do you like the r400? Any drone?

dujfraz very little drone. Sounds deep and aggressive. Very nice note would recommend/10

No. They are cat-back exhaust systems which mean they are installed after the catalytic converter, therefore not effecting emissions.

Hi Lyn, My car is a manual. From what I have gathered, if a modification does not increase performance greater than 20% it does not need a certificate. I bought the exhaust from Yakuza Motorsports, they have a garage in Abbotsbury. I am not sure about the warranty, you would have to check with your local dealer. Cheers

Definitely the r400 is deeper

You will not notice the Q300 when you are the driver, but if you are a bystander you can definitely notice it. My issue was that I could never hear it, hence why I bought the R400. Hope that helps.

Gregory Stands no drone

A little bit but not really compared to other exhausts

Akhan it exist ?

Invidia N1 is also good. Very loud however compared to R400 and Q300. It’s livable if you’re only changing the catback. But if you ever plan on changing headers as well, it becomes obnoxiously loud (imo).

Having N2 on my car recently. Good sound when revving up but has little drone on highway around 3k rpm. A little bit pain for me since most of my drive are freeway so I am selling it and stick to stokc :(

Loud as hell with headers.. dont do it

Hey man I just bought this exhaust. Is it true over time it got louder when used ? I don’t want it louder

my friend has the n1 and its louder than the n2

I have the Q300 there is no drone.

Q300 has no drone.

This is so wrong. I have an R400 and its drone is beyond annoying

Imagine care what other think LOL

No lie with a supercharger. BRZ plus Sprintex 210 SPS plus R400 = simply amazing! :) :)
