Because i want a nice sounding exhaust and i gave refferences what i wish it could sound like. Not saying i want them expecting it from a muffler deete or uk mod, but since i want that sound i should sell my car wow, smart

 

Sound is a personal thing. Its kinda like appearance. What looks good to one looks rice to the next, boring to one, classic to another.

He wants louder, he wants a racetrack soundtrack. Nothing wrong with that. How he is describing it maybe leaves something to he desired...

 

Lol alfa-hotel! Ha.

 

A deeper tone and what u want is keep stock header, get a solid quality test pipe. That's the thing some steels are very prone to rasp. It like pronounces the tone in its metal, but anything else is just too dang expensive but a good steel and straight through exhaust will help. Also being NA it's gonna be loud. But what I have noticed on others car is a universal straight through performance muffler with dual circle tips give it a nice off throttle and on throttle tone towards what ur looking for imo, that's the money maker right there, almost Everytime I hear an exh. And I just have to see what he's reppin it's a dual tip.

Only problem with that is and why I don't have one is 1 performance and 2 u want to keep dual exhaust. 3 there is no provision to really have it with the bottom of bumper being close to tip and being a single.

 

Thanks everyone for your input

 

Good luck and careful with the torch LOL

 

Refined. You aren't really using that word right. I understand wanting more sound from the car as it is pretty quite with all the OEM parts. But if you expected to get a good "refined" sound from hacking off pieces of the OEM exhaust and at test pipe you are going to be disappointed. You mentioned a few other cars that are all fundamentally different than the S2000. The BRZ, 370z and Mini all have very different engines that result in a different sound. Hell my Fiat 500 Abarth sounds meaner than a lot of cars but again totally different engine setup.

The S2000 is a high reving 4 cyl and will be higher pitched than any of the previously mentioned cars. You may want to take a little time and go ride in a few different S2000's that have different exhaust systems before you bother doing this and not getting the results you want.
