Takes less than 30 minutes to swap and then another 30 minutes to swap back after inspection and emissions. If you don't have an hour, look into Berk's new hi-flow cat. Would imagine that would help some on the drone.

Oh, and just noticed that you failed to say Happy Birthday in your response:-)

I assume you want dual tip exhaust, but if you don't, the J's Ti single 70RS on DP's car (FormulaRedline) is the best I have heard/seen so far. Full Ti from the cat back = 9lb.s total weight for the whole sytem and it sounds close to stock below VTEC and very sweet in the upper rev.'s. Only trade off is the drone at 4K, but I have read it is not as bad as others....I didn't mind. The fitment was OEM quality, seriously, it just fit right in and we were off for a test drive.

I might be in the market for one too and I am considering Amuse's version of the Ti single. Good luck!

Agreed. Look and listen to what others have bought. Rehile has the nicest, but also the most expensive. Look at the new Berk dual, real nice. I like my Sparrow, but would have gone with the Berk had it been out. Many like the HKS. Note though, you'll need a test pipe to go with the exhaust unless you like drone. The test pipe will kill 50% or more of the drone.
Happy hunting.
Thanks Ron!

I Like the sound of J's, too (in addition to the Amuse, of course)

Well, all the cool people have the HKS, so you might as well get that.

Thanks Ron, but not sure I deserve the congrats as I've been cheating on and not paying as much attention to the S2000 I should since my new love arrived:



Okay, back to exhaust, I'd have to say Vance & Hines - Big Shots, yeap, that's how I'd go, nice sound

I really don't think my HKS has a drone, there's a little around 3k but rarely are the revs at 3k so its not very noticeable. Great price, fitment. Heah you'd be in the HKS club too but think of it this way, you're also drivin an S because many feel that its the best car on the road. Join one club you can join another.

Happy Hunting!!!

Sorry to dig in the tread but who's hangin on to their OEM setup? Should I sell mine or hang on to it??????
