will i lose a lot of low end toqure by putting a straight pipe in its place? also will this make the custom exhuast louder than a N1?

It can be done, I don't anticipate it would effect performance much. It will make your exhaust louder, but a lot goes into exhaust noise, couldn't say if it'd be louder than an n1. Given the way you phrased that, you seem willing to sacrifice power for noise. . . Kinda bassackwards if you ask me <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'> IMHO, there's nothing worse than a car with a needlessly loud exhaust

WAAAAAY too loud. &nbsp;There's a reason even race cars run resonators - you won't get any real power, but you will get A LOT OF NOISE &nbsp;<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/crazy.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':crazy:'>

im asking becuase im going to sell my car and the resonator is rotted through. if i just put in a straight pipe i will &nbsp;save money. im not saying i want noise. noise = cops = money.
