I was looking back through the archives and I noticed some posts about J's Racing N1 exhaust. I saw the video here - http://www.jsracing.co.jp/movie/s2kn101.mpg and really fell in love with the sound. I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with it? The last I heard, only 1 member had it and I really didn't hear much about it. Can anyone comment on it?
Thanks,
-Brandon

Only thing I don't like is that it's a single, not dual exhaust.

Me too, but I would sacrafice that for the sound. Have you heard it....it sounds amazing!!! It sounds like a true race car. I really didnt want single, but for that sound and probably an improvement in performance, I would do it. I was thinking about fabricating some sort of dummy muffler to go on the other side so that it would look better, but I'm still not to sure about that. So does anyone have experience with this exhaust?
Thanks,

OMG OMG .. that sound brings TEARS to my eyes!!!!

I LOVE THAT EXHAUST I MUST HAVE IT

On a side note, how much does the HKS exhaust weigh?? It seems that a single exhaust would weigh alot less than a dual..

A single exhaust shoudl work fine for our engines..

Yeah, but I do think it sounds better than any other exhaust out there. In my opinion, the HKS sounds too raspy and high pitched, the nuespeed is not loud and racy enough, the RM(B&B) has a weird throaty sound to it and the Mugen is too subtle. Now I have nothing against any of these exhausts and they all sounds pretty good, they are just not what I am looking for. That is why I like the J' Racing N1 because it sounds so clean, yet so racy. If anyone has anymore info, please let me know.
Thanks,
-Brandon
