XclusiveAutosports- How about a soundclip?
Folex, np man, i'll try to shoot one today if my bro gets home from work early enough. What are you looking for, driving past the camera or from behind the car? BTW, did you finish installing your turbo yet?

I haven't noticed anything as far as power, but love the way it looks and sounds.

Thanx! Is the first canister on the hks a resonator or is it an actual muffler?

No problem, the first canister is a resonator on the HKS. So how is your LoveFab setup coming along?

Slowly due to lack of tuning funds

Here's what I'm going to do:
Buy 2 HKS hi-power mufflers (2.5in just like the s2000 application) and run the 2.5in into a Y (2x 2.5in in 1x 3in out) and then run a 3in resonator from ebay onto there. I don't know if you follow that but I hope it will sound like that!

I follow what you're trying to do . Keep in mind that my car is still NA right now, i'm still waiting on my LoveFab kit to come in. I'm not sure how soon you are planning on doing all of that, but I will post up a clip as soon as I get my turbo installed. Keep in mind that the exhaust note will probably change (I don't want it too though ) once I put on the turbo. I think it will quiet it down a little bit with the turbo. I also have a y-pipe welded into my new testpipe with an exhaust cutout (I think you recommended it to me) for a little extra sound . We'll see how it all turns out soon. Good luck with finishing your project.

Ya I was going to do the Y-pipe with a cut-out but I chickened out after seeing some of the flames that can shoot out of those. I'll still probably do it though I'm going to post what I plan on doing in the FI forum to get some input. Your car sounds so awesome now but the turbo will definitely change that tone.
