Well at first I was going to dyno with the stock cat, but after hearing that theres a chance of reducing drone with the test pipe (I'm a little skeptical, but hopefull), I thought I should just go for it and maybe make some more power as well. With this setup + testpipe, I'm very interested to see where the gains are along with how much. Maybe 10whp peak?
No...even with the testpipe you'll still only net 1-2rwhp. I had my S dyno'd at Church's a few months back. I made 230rwhp bone stock. That same day I had an Invidia dual cat-back installed and I made 235rwhp. I now have the following mods:

Toda exhaust manifold
J's Racing test pipe
Invidia exhaust
Hondata IMG
ECU reflash

With these mods I made 238rwhp, a whopping 3rwhp more than what I made with the exhaust alone. I did pick-up a great deal of mid-range torque though.

You can expect to make around 237rwhp (on Shawn's dynapack) with your new setup.

I cannot provide details on the reflash at this time. In a few weeks or should I should be given the green light to provide details.

Are you talking to me? If so, yes, but I am not authorized to post it at this time.

I snapped some quick pictures this morning with my Camera Phone, so they're not the clearest pics, but not bad.

@AP2_S2K
With this setup you cant go wrong!

Check MY J's RACING S2000 PROJECT! which is under development! The only thing pending is to fit the J's Racing ECU. I will collect it on Tuesday and test drive it all night long.

I will dyno my setup as well!

Please dyno it. Inquiring minds want to know. Your car looks really tasteful with the mods.

Is the exhaust raspy when not pushing it hard? So far i've heard a B series Honda and an Evo and both sounded raaspy at startup and near idle. WOT they sound great though.

No its not raspy at all. It just has Bass... and more bass. Above 4000 rpm its fine but is missing an audible exhaust "note". I'm very interested to see what the test pipe is going to do for me. I spoke with Gif (forgive my spelling if this is wrong) from Bulletproof last week and he gave me the pleasure of hearing his AP1 with J's header and 70RR... it was loud but simply awesome sounding.... with no real drone that I could hear from the little that I heard it. So... I'm very very much hoping that the test pipe will remove the drone and give it a little of the great sound that his car had, but not as loud hopefully due to my DUAL 60RS.

By the way, I installed my Bride Straida today... the quality of this seat is simply awesome. I'm gonna see how it does for a couple of days, I am afraid however that it might be a little tight on me, I'm 6'3" / 195, not thin by any means, but it is a bit of a squeeze.

It looks freaking great in the car though!





... on a seperate note. When I started posting pictures in this thread they were the size that I wanted them to be, but now when I post them they're like half the size that I make them. Like the dyno plot at the top of this thread is huge, but these seat pics are half the resolution that they really are when I uploaded them to photobucket. Is there a posting limit or something? Thanks guys.
