Default Single Outlet Exhaust





Here are some pictures of an exhaust I built. I used 2 3/8" Stainless Steel straight and J-Bend Mandrel bent tubing from Burns Stainless. This is the exact size of the B-pipe before it splits into two. It is also the exact size that the stock exhaust tip slips onto. Using two bends, an offset Magnaflow Stainless Steel oval muffler, and a stock S2000 tip, I was able to build a nice light weight system for under $200. It took a few hours and dropped 25-30 lbs. I'm pretty happy with the sound. I kept the stock resonator and stub pipe which helps keep it quiet. It is a little louder than stock at idle. It is loudest at about 3500 rpm and once you hit VTEC, you only hear the intake. However, my intake is custom and fairly loud at VTEC.
It has a nice aggressive sound, a lot less weight, a clean look, and was a fun project.

Thanks,
I do have more pictures, I'll try to post them tonight.
I don't have "loud booms" but it is loudest at around 3500 rpm when decelerating. It's louder than stock but not enough to bother me.
I have noticed a little more residue on the tip than before. I am assuming that it's due to all of the exhaust exiting one tip rather than depositing half the total residue on each stock tip.

Looks like you did nice work but I like the look of duals better, gives the car a more balanced look.
