But you can hear the beautiful sound (for me) that the Spec-L can provide, not ricey for street.

The deceleration sound is just as important as the acceleration IMO, mayne you can catch that on your next video.

Looks good. I like the carbon fiber tips better than my HKS stainless.

Hi Diablo, those videos were made to send over to Hks Europe and Japan, because the central muffler has somekind of problem, and the noise of the exhaust changed drastic, something went wrong inside the center muffler, it creates a raspy sound in bettwen 3000-5000 rpm´s like open header sound, but soon the vtec kicks in it quietes, and stays normal till the 9000k... The great costumer service from Hendyperformance UK & HKS Europe/Japan will send over a new central piece of exhaust to replace mine.

yeah, I was wondering how it sounds so weird. although it's recorded by a different camera compared to official hks video, it sounds completely different. let us know how it sounds after replacement.

by the way, nice spoon mirrors. we will see how your car looks like after new s tai bumper.

So want to thanks to HKS Japan, HKS Europe and Hendy performace, by the fast way to handle this process! In two weeks they sent me another new "center piece" to replace the faulty one, now the great sound of Spec L is back!
