Default Do either of these setups sound ok?

Mark from CVR motorsports has been great in helping me build my exhaust. I have a JWT Pop charger installed, and have two exhausts picked out.

1. Invidia G200 with Megan Reson Test Pipes, Megan Headers.
2. Invidia N1 with Megan Y pipe, Reson Test Pipes and Megan Headers.

~ I've also looked into Invidia test pipes or Berk HFC.

However, with concern for the test pipes. When i looked up videos with the megan test pipes I hear a little metallic noise. My goal is the lowest sound. I cant afford to make too much noise in my neighborhood. Should I alter anything like the test pipes? Keep the stock cats with either build?

3.) Invidia G200, Berk Tech High flow cats, Pick a header (if you want)

the G200 will be quieter than the N1. Id also recommend cats to cut down on the reverb from rasp.

What does the header do, at least for this type of build? Does it add or reduce the noise, tone? Or does it just allow a little more power?

mostly just adds a little more power throughout the rpm range. Nothing significant i havent really heard a difference in noise between any of them and stock manifolds.

Should I replace the headers or just worry about the Cats to rear? Will the stock headers be to much of a restriction if I do Berk HFC and G200?

not really its a 5+ hour job just to install them in most cases and most people will say they are not worth the hassle.

If u can't afford to be loud then u need to switch your exhaust. Headers.....not worth it. Make the engine growl and buy a plenum spacer. I'd go high flow cats and maybe a exhaust kinda like a nismo or sumthing similar. Bc I'm n a good mood I'm not gonna flame u but I suggest u search a lil

Ive been searching for two weeks fellas, but thank you for being nice. Nah I've heard every type of exhaust sound clip on youtube, but hadn't really asked specifics about my build. Figured I would ask advice before I purchase since I built what looked good to me. Obviously it was good I ask Ya know?

the n1 is going to be one of the loudest exhaust you can get combined with a test pipes or hfc. If you look in my sig i have that setup . Its very loud so if your worried about neighbors then i wouldnt recommend going with the N1.
