just curious... but what does everyone want to see a comparison between this exhaust and the greddy or berk for?? to see which is louder?
For power comparison. Berk is '3 and buddy is '2.5? idk. Berk is a headerback Buddy isnt. Berk is cheaper I believe. Sound is a good comparison. Looks they both look pretty sexy.
Buddy club is 70mm, which is 2.75". Don't think the power difference would be significant.

I purchased the spec2 a few weeks ago. Install was a breeze and I love the sound of this exhaust. Yes it is loud, but everyone asks me what exhaust I have and they love it.
The downshift sounds so throaty, the sound of this exhaust has a change in sound right when it hits 3k and then gets loud around 5k.
My s is a2005 with a previous 63 HFC installed. I decided on the spec 2 and aem v2 install the same time. After a few wot pulls this car has woken up. My butt is very happy with the results of these mods. Can't wait for this week of rain to be gone so I can cruise

CORRECT!!! but the buddyclub header has less resonator.. so i think the flow would be better than the others.

Yes ap1 has single hangars while ap2 are 2 hangars. I'm speaking of course of the rear section of the exhaust. Ap1 owners would have to get ap2 hangars for this exhaust, I'm sure ap1 hangars would still work but the exhaust will away from side to side...

Yeah you're right. It does still work but I just feel like it's not as secure. Well anyways it's a beautiful exhaust I'm thinking about posting a review of mine. I would recommend this exhaust to people who are looking for a loud racing exhaust. This exhaust sounds aggressive and mean like it is suppose to. It has a deep noise and nice pur. Buddy of mine has a video of mine with a test pipe on YouTube somewhere ill try to find.
