I have the Gotuning GReddy SE Dual exhaust on my 07 AP2. Get ready to buy some ear plugs! That thing is loud and annoying! It's get real bad on the highway from 3-4k rpm at 65-70mph that thing start humming until your ears pop! I just bought the Berk 70mm HFC so hopefully it would take the humming noise away or else I'm going back to stock. I LOVE the way the GReddy SE looks tho! Too bad the noise is too crazy for me. good luck
Hey, just put on a 70mm test pipe and it tones down the brain scrambling drone. Local member also has same set up and it makes a big difference.

Not going to lie. At first I wanted to get rid of the exhuast but, a week later I've gotten use to the drone then contemplated weather or not I should get a test pipe. Until I rode along in a local members S with SE paired with a 70mm testpipe. Like I said made a difference in a good way.
Yeah that's what I keep hearing/read about adding a test pipe/ High Flow Cat would help with the tone and drone noise. Don't get me wrong, I always love GReddy Exhaust. I've had them on my previous cars (integra gsr with the GReddy SP and RSX Type S with the GReddy EVO)Both of them sounded real nice.thats why I chose the GReddy SE Dual for my s2000 too but I'm not going to lie, I'm kinda disappointed with this system. loud,boommy and makes the car vibrate a lot.

I'm installing the Berk 70mm HFC this weekend so hopefully that would help like everybody is saying But I'm also worried about having a CEL coming on.(I know about the anti-fouler trick)

I have the Berk 70mm HFC with the SE and the deep drone is still there. Real annoying!

Ouch! But then again don't you have the Single GReddy SE exhaust system? I heard that's more loud than the Dual? The looks of the GReddy SE just wins my heart!

Also, I believe a rep @ berk mentioning the tp may quiet down the exhaust drone more than the hfc. Not sure if that is true or not.

Trust me, you'll keep the exhaust after the hfc. 10 seconds into the drive in my friends S and I was already on the phone ordering the 70mm test pipe.

Thanks. Just the kind of feedback I need as this is the combo I'm going with. Emissions be damned!

Wow I wouldn't have a problem buying a test-pipe because it was way cheaper than the High flow cat. I could of save some $$$ oh well. thanks for the heads up
