Another question regarding rv6 and xrl8 J Pipe - audible changes in the cockpit

Just wondering what people who have done the J Pipe changeover have noticed about interior dBs. Mainly talking about noise while driving not outside.

The J Pipe was one of the first Mods that I did, I would say that the sound difference in the car is ever so slightly increased.
I do not like loud exhaust systems, so if you are worried about noise in the car, don't be, the J Pipe is a great addition to the car and will not cause any annoyances.

Also, keep in mind that the 2012 and up TLs are quieter inside than the 09/11.

The Jpipe removes a cat but it really doesn't change sound just by it's self.

The difference in sound may be audible if you're listening for it, but it doesn't come close to adding a cat-back or deleting resonators. If you're looking for sound I'd recommend an exhaust (or removing resonators if you're trying to do it for as little as possible), otherwise the Jpipe is a great mod!

Good luck! Feel free to PM me if you need something

almost akin to what an air intake sounds like in cabin...at idle no change of sound, maybe tone got deeper with jpipe...
but it's only when you take the car up and beyond 5000 RPM is when the pipe will scream!
