[@RPMPerformances]

Great video! We ship worldwide and know all the differences between USA and Europe specs!

[@CaliforniaKonaN]

Ah thank you for checking out the vid and for the shipping info! Thats awesome, and again great to the exhaust option for the Kona N from you!

[@Sayu2x]

Best stock 4 cylinder sound on the market

[@CaliforniaKonaN]

Facts!

[@snoopergnar3719]

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.

[@CaliforniaKonaN]

Ayyy Borla gang! Yes def get lots of compliments on it, glad you’re enjoying it too!

[@carloscervantes836]

Idle sound is sweet indeed, absolutely love idle sound.

[@PoopHiggers-rx5ce]

Thank you for posting this video! Currently looking for to replace the current exhaust! And these video breakdown really helped!

[@CaliforniaKonaN]

Ah that’s awesome glad the video helped!

[@x310gtsx]

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. 🤙

[@KevinBoulevard]

love how the xforce system sounds!! Definitely going with that exhaust for my Kona N!!

[@CaliforniaKonaN]

Hell yeah! ✊🏾 let us know how it turns out

[@spunabout]

Thanks that was really helpful. Had mine for 7 months and just started thinking about an exaust.

[@CaliforniaKonaN]

Oh nice, and anytime! Hope to make one for intakes next 🙏🏾👍🏾

[@cjrideau4093]

I like the sound and size of the tips on the X-Force. Thanks this was very helpful

[@Kyumilli]

Just got my N two days ago. Your channel is verry informative thank you!

[@CaliforniaKonaN]

Congrats! What N did ya get? And thank you for the support!

[@CaliforniaKonaN]

@@Kyumilli hell yeah! awesome color!

[@thatguymikejones]

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

[@CaliforniaKonaN]

Anytime man! Thanks again for helpin with the intercooler hoses! Might have some questions later but excited to install when I get the chance!

[@thatguymikejones]

@@CaliforniaKonaN no problem. sent you a message about it this morning

[@Snooz.n]

I have a favorite!!!

[@CaliforniaKonaN]

YOU the favorite!

[@klasseact6663]

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]

Oh wow those are great gains! I believe he’s tuned as well?

[@klasseact6663]

@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!

[@mulletsquirrel]

Great comparison video! They dont give those away do they? Im still unsure about volume levels too

[@FastKonaN]

Ayeeee! I’m still waiting on my HPFP from SXTH been needing to upload some content 😭

[@CaliforniaKonaN]

Ayyy that'll be a good one! I got the SXTH intercooler but probably won't be able to install till summer just with timing. Can't wait for the next vids!

[@Velosy_]

Cali question, do you know any Downpipe that fit in w/o any modifications required for the 2023 Kona N? Or it just doesnt exists?

[@billfincher8519]

Grest info. I love my 2023 N What valve opens when N-mode engages?

[@CaliforniaKonaN]

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

[@EgyKics1t]

Not exactly exhaust related, but could you recommend some KN forums/sites for mods? I have a lowering kit & custom intake ready to install, but that's about all. Thanks!

[@CaliforniaKonaN]

I have a video with alot of my mods installed if you wanna check out some for some inspo (which includes pricing etc). kzbin.info/www/bejne/fHTXYYh8q9mDl7Msi=cNeVKGCf2DQmoxjc Also, the Kona N subreddit has some good info as well as the Hyundai Kona N Owners on FB has a lot of great N owners sharing lots of information / mods etc facebook.com/groups/670887790745520 www.reddit.com/r/konan_

[@EgyKics1t]

@@CaliforniaKonaN Appreciate you, my guy!

[@carloscervantes836]

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.

[@barrettbritt]

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?

[@gooeykev]

I’m thinking of getting the borla atak exhaust for my Kona n soon

[@CaliforniaKonaN]

It’s an amazing system!

[@KonaNthusiast]

Dang I hate I didn’t make the cut for this video lol oh well. Gotta keep up with IG better

[@CaliforniaKonaN]

ah always next time man! People prolly already know you by now but def gotta collab sometime in the future!

[@KonaNthusiast]

@@CaliforniaKonaN for sure man, I’m gonna try to make it out to cali this year for a Brian Herta race event

[@S.Matt240]

Do they all void the warranty though?? I just bought my daughter a 23 Kona N and she wants a exhaust

[@CaliforniaKonaN]

I mean technically they can void your warranty but the exhaust has to be the cause of the issue. But again depends on your dealer. Safest bet is to put the stock exhaust back if you’re going in for warranty work!

[@aussiefurbymogwaifan6621]

0:15 the setup behind you though😂

[@candacecovington3723]

Very nice 👍

[@CaliforniaKonaN]

Thank you!

[@TehAntiSpammer]

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]

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!

[@TehAntiSpammer]

@@CaliforniaKonaN Damn man, thats rough. Im looking towards getting an Elantra N line sometime this month, since Kona Ns are pretty expensive here in Canada. Looking into one thats slightl;y used as my 1st car, since i want something that feels a lil bit sporty without having to shell out the money for a full on sport. Wish me luck in my search brother!

[@johntrabue2397]

I did the delete of both resonators. The best $50 I ever spent

[@CaliforniaKonaN]

Def great value and gets amazing results!

[@Jcrash1]

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!

[@RoxUnlimited]

Just got a Kona N recently. Personally not a fan of the way both resonators deleted sound. Did you ever find any good places to listen to a single one removed?

[@CaliforniaKonaN]

@@RoxUnlimited congrats on the pickup! I have a clip near the end of the vid from @TheSoulofmyCivic on YT and IG. Her car has a single resonator setup. Might want to hit her up on IG to see if she has more clips to hear!

[@RoxUnlimited]

@@CaliforniaKonaN sweet thank you

[@candacecovington3723]

Borla exhaust giveaway ? Lol

[@CaliforniaKonaN]

The dream 🤣

[@GOINFINITI]

I live near Austria so I was considering the Remus. However if you look how badly and ghastly the welds are - this is by far not worth it, especially the insane price tag. Where others are nicely mandrel bent - the Remus exhaust is made from tons of welded pieces. Their motorcycle exhaust systems are nice and good quality - but the Kona N exhaust looks like some Remus employee`s brother was experimenting in the garage at home. Pathetic

[@CaliforniaKonaN]

Ah dang sucks to hear, interesting their motorcycle exhausts differ!

[@farmergeo5374]

Can't hear you speak. Car sounds are ok.

[@CaliforniaKonaN]

Ah yeah intro audio a little low, but once you get into the list it clears up a bit. Also video best with headphones!

[@farmergeo5374]

@@CaliforniaKonaN yes, it did. Thank you for the video, very informative and plan on doing the upgrade soon.
