Default S2000 Exhaust Systems

I am getting ready to purchase an exhaust system for my S2K but i seem to be stuck between a few. I am looking for something with a low rumble at idle and low RPM's but sounds mean at open throttle and comes with a good amount of Horse Power and Torque. I Prefer to get a dual Exhaust setup but will consider a single pipe. If anyone has any sound clips or pictures or some J's Racing exhaust systems i would appreciate it.


What system would you go with?


J's Racing FX Dual RS Exhaust (Dual Pipes)

J's Racing T1R Sparrow Dual Exhaust (Dual Tips)

J's Racing T1R 70RT Exhaust (Single Tip)

J's RAcing T1R 70R Version 3 (Single Tip)

Don't go with Invidia unless you don't mind it EXTREMELY loud (especially on long trips).

IMO- I order of preference.....
1. Direct bolt on with No mods what so ever.
2. Visual appearance- Might as well enjoy the LOOk.
3. Price- For me it's very hard to justify some prices for many of these systems.
4. Sound- Sound last because opinions are so varied. Unless you've already decided on a" must have" sound, this should be the the last and least important of the decision.
Other members here will re-rank my short list and a few will probably agree. So it goes in the world of opinions. Keep it reasonable.

I am still confused what to go with:

I was first set on the T1R 63mm v2.

Then, I read the T1R 70mm v2 would be much better for hp and tq gains and decided to go this route. But, I read that the 70mm is too loud with the testpipe and that it drones as well...

So, I am trying to see what duals may work that don't have the round canister

I am considering Fuji, tanable medallion touring and neuspeed, alhough they all have 60mm main pipes

Magnaflow seems to have a 63.5mm main pipe and dual 50mm like the Fuji and Neuspeed which features oval cans which may be worth it as well - People like Rick's Accessories swear by the quality and ifit.

So, I am stuck trying to figure out what to do.

I am not sure if this helps you any, but thought I'd share my predicament and my research findings.

Kchandra- Im sure your read plenty of pro and cons and now it's decision time. No part of your life should be disrupted over "pipe" . Choose the one you think will work the best for you then forget about it. If it's a direct bolt on, IT will work to your satisfaction just as it has to many other users of the same system.
Once installed, have no regrets. Your system will be the best just as others who have the same system will agree.

Jack - You are right and I know that. Its just that I hate to buy something and regret it later and be disappointed. I think I may get a dual of some sort. I want to be able to enjoy driving the car and I think the noise is something I want to really avoid! Thanks for the advice and I appreciate it!
