Cheers guys, next on the list is an "AEM V2" style intake these guys are making. Basically a clone but with a few options on colours and like half the price of an AEM. hehe

but if anyones in the market for a new exhaust, would highly recommend these guys

They are based in Bramley, near the Vyne mannor house thing!

tbh I'm chuffed to have found a local bunch who are good, they basically cater for any Japanese performance cars and are starting to specialise in S2000s more and more

Bramley!? Oh my even closer, I go to the bakers in Bramley (by the railway crossing) every Sunday to get the bread in for bacon sarnies lol! Mostly because the roads from Mortimer Common to Bramley are absolutely epic! Quiet, flowing and well surfaced, mostly. You know it has been a satisfying drive when you park up at the bakers and you can see the heat haze coming off the car bonnet!

I might have to go and have a chat with these guys when the next pay check comes in, just spent all my money on festival tickets lol!

Looks really good & very well made!
Really liking the non back box just tail pipe look
Does yours have any silencers in the middle section?
Im been looking at exhausts but alot of them seem really expensive
Was thinking of buddyclub but they seem to sound really raspy when letting off
May give these guy a try

It has one silencer which comes right after the cat/decat pipe - then it splits into the 2 tail pipes for the rest of the way out!

I love it and would highly recomend - compared to some of the JDM "scene" parts you could quite easily pay 2-3x the amount for an exhaust that seems mad to me which is why I went down the custom route and now these guys are going to start mass producing Honda bits by the look of it which is great

Awesome, i need to pay these guys a visit in my s2000 when my mates starlet gets mapped there.
These the guys down near basingstoke yeah?

How much did the custom exhaust cost you? And can they fabricate any exhaust up?

Also would they custom make exhaust manifolds???

They'll make anything mate, exhaust is about 400-450 quid depending on the exact spec/tips you want. Manifolds should be no prob and will be on my list at some point!

That is ridiculously good value! Any ideas what volume they kick out dB wise?

Exactly why I did it. Sod paying the premium for "JDM Scene" parts when you can get a custom one done for a third of the price to your exact specs. Not sure on dbs, mine is pretty loud on full chat. But James @ JD Modified did say they could have just put a bigger silencer box in to quieten it down a bit!

I'm at japfest on the weekend on the hampshire jap cars stand so if anyone wants to see/hear it I'll be around

I might have to get in touch with them at some point when I have some available funds. First priority is fixing my roof though

But i want mine to be as quiet as possible especially when cruising at 70mph on the motorway!!!! :0

Hi,

Still loving it, my s2k is my daily drive and its very loud with the pedal down but cruising around its loud but not obnoxiously so and doesn't give you headaches, can still talk to your passenger etc! Neighbours are yet to complain, too! So far so good.
