I'm having a hard time choosing an exhaust for my car.

I like the J's Racing N1...but it is loud, and I'm trying to get the silencer for it. If not the J's Racing N1 (Japanese circuit look)...my favorites are the HKS (sporty look) and the Nippon (Porsche look).

I'm looking for a detail about the Nippon exhaust. Can anyone help me out? Do you have a picture of the bottom view of the Nippon exhaust...like this:
http://albums.photopoint.com/j/View?u=1553...5293&Sequence=0

If not...could you answer this question:

1. Is the Nippon tips welded to a pipe comming out of the muffler casing like this (tip is welded
to a pipe, the pipe is welded to the muffler; 2 welds.
Kind of like how the stock tips are bolted on to a muffler pipe, and then the muffler pipe is
a part of the exhaust case.

2. Or is the tip itself welded straight to the muffler case (1 weld)...like this...

Thanks!

This picture of the Nippon exhaust looks like the tips slim down and are welded to the muffler casing.

Unicrom,the only picture available is the one ftom our site.
I think Pancho from Belgium has one installed in his car and he might be able to take a picture.
I e-mailed also one of our customers in Italy ,but no reply as yet.
By the way if you are not in a hurry I will love to show our new exhaust in a couple of weeks.
If you want instead one of the exhaust above we can sell them also at very competitive prices.

Giampiero,

I am actually the guy talking to Sue about the J's Racing N1 (trying to find the "silencer") .

I e-mailed Pancho about the picture also.

I like the J's Racing N1...but it's kind of loud. I'm having a hard time deciding. Yes, I would like to see your exhaust before my final decision.

Thanks!

Here's a picture of what seems to be Nippon exhaust. My local Honda dealer obtained this model from http://www.tss-tuning.de when I asked him if there was an aftermarket exhaust for the Stook which isn't too loud. While I am quite satisfied with the quality and great looks of the product I have to admit that the exhaust doesn't sound too different compared to the stock system. There's also a racing version of this exhaust available which is supposed to be substantially louder while it looks exactly the same .
