Last weekend I installed an hks exhaust on my Silver Bullet. The sound is great, however, the VTEC transition is much less pronounced. I dont hear the roar I used to get in when VTECinc or the power surge. On my previous GSR, the exhaust woke up the car both in sound and surge.

Im sure the louder sound of the hks draws my attention to the rear of the car, but something "ain't rite".
Anyone else notice this.

I hear my "roar" each time with my HKS! You might want to check your oil level. Top it off and try again. It seems that our VTEC is very sensitive to oil levels.

Good luck!

Hey BB:

How hard/easy was it to install? I'm in the process of getting one myself so I was curious. Also I heard the tips are pretty small huh? ENJOY!
