Default Need help ! !

I am in the process of buying a used or new Exhaust for my car.

First, i need your help in deciding wheather i should buy the following exhaust or pass it ?

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Honda-S2000-...035c24&vxp=mtr

secondly, whatever i purchase, what items should i be looking for within the pruchase, i mean should i be looking for a test pipe or stuff like that as well included with the exhaust ?

Last but not least, I found the following Intake as well off e-bay, Should i purchase it or look for something else.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Honda-S2000-...item564819ce4c

i hope im making sense.

Thank you guys for all your help.

Just keep in mind that the Tsudo is going to drone badly (according to owners on the forum).

I have the Tsudo exhaust. I am overall pleased with it. It is much lighter than the stock and it does drone loud but only at 3-4k RPMs. For the price you cannot beat it, I am not so sure about the ebay exhaust because you never know what it is going to sound like.

Good luck and lmk if you have any questions about the Tsudo ill be glad to give you more input.

*Just watched the video on eBay, seems rather quiet and does not sound very aggressive. If you are wanting an exhaust that is not loud stick with the ebay one.

Here is a video I found of the Tsudo and it sounds very similar to mine.

Thank you for your reply ...
i have been keen towards tsudo but ive also been told that its not worth it .. im just confused !! ! !
how bad is the drone if you take the RPM at 6000 ...
is your exhaust louder/quieter than q300 (Invidia)
did it increase your hp ?
do you have a intake as well ?

The drone is not able to be heard above 6k at all, when you get into vtec it does not sound too much different then with a stock exhaust except for a little bit more growl to it. You will hear some drone when accelerating up a hill if in low rpms but it is bearable. The drone is very easy to control with throttle though. I personally have not encountered anyone with the q300 to compare it to but off watching a video on youtube I would say it is pretty similar. Because the Tsudo exhaust is just a replica of the invidia exhaust (correct me if I am wrong). I cannot answer if it increased my hp since I have not put my car on a dyno before, but the throttle response foes seem a bit better and the exhaust is much lighter than the stock. No intake yet but I am in the process of getting a K&N FIPK.

Please note that I am 20 years old so my opinion may be different than an adult.

It looks like the one in the vid has oval mufflers but the one pictured has cans.
