Default Finally Got My J's Racing 70RR Ti Headerback Exh

I was skeptical before I installed this thing, after reading some reviews about how loud it was. Also, one of the soundclips going online makes this sound high-pitched and nasty. Then, people say it drones and all kinds of weird BS, but I didn't experience any of these above rumors. The O2 sensor fit in, everything mounted in less than 5 minutes after I got the stock exhaust/cat out.

The exhaust is deep and throaty, loud (obviously, since there's no resonator) but not as loud as I thought it'd be, and doesn't drone (freeway, 40mph or anytime, from what I've experienced). At idle, it's pretty quiet, but if you put your hand up to the tip, it feels like a blow dryer is pulsing. I love the fact that it's header-back, so I don't need a testpipe since it bolts directly up to the header. I will try to get a soundclip from inside and outside the car. Feels great and this is the best $1450 I've spent in a long time. 9.5 lbs, 70mm and that look... enough said.

I'll be glad to answer questions.

Here are some pics, more to come:


This poor-quality pic was taken with my phone.

This is header-back, so there is no cat. It attaches straight to the header.

I am running an OEM header (for now). I'll post when I get my header and everything else.

Yeah, I should've used more jackstands. Luckily i was only under there for a couple minutes after I removed the stock exhaust, 'cause the J's only took me about 5 minutes to install/bolt-up.

Yes, the builit-in O2 bung fit the O2 sensor perfectly. It's a few inches down from where the stock cat's O2 bung is, but I just got more slack by pulling slightly.
