Those are great looking pics of an already great looking car!

Who cares about his exhaust. To each their own.

Have fun!

Actually, I should gain a couple of horses. My friend has the same muffler and piping on his MY 2001 and it gained 6 rwhp on a dyno. If you think about it, with how high our motors rev they need quite a bit of flow out of the exhaust, and with switching from a dual outlet to a single you have quite a bit more exhaust trying to go through one muffler. I was going to get the NA Apexi N1, but after talking to my muffler guy, who is known as the best in town, he recommended I get the bigger one so I listened. Personally I don't think I've heard a better sounding exhaust on an S2K, and I'm not being biased. If anyone in Orlando wants to hear it or take a look at my car just pm me. Thanks.

That's what I was wondering ... Why you didn't get the Apexi N1 catback specially designed and made for the S2000 and instead got a universal turbo N1 muffler and decided to do the custom piping job. Then again, it's your car so it's your choice nevertheless at the end of the day. As long as you're happy with your ride ... We have nothing much to add.
