Three weeks ago I had surgery to attempt ot fix a hearing loss I have had for 15 years. Yesterday the Dr. unplugged it nad I could hear perfectly. The first thing I did when I left was start my S. Three bars later I heard the sound of VTEC for the first time. WOW!! The car sounds awsome. I am so thrilled about hearing all the worlds noises but the S is the best part. Just wanted to share my joy. I year old and I love it more each day.

Get a HKS exhaust and you'll start thinking your S is a supercar. Congrats on the operation and have fun with all of the beautiful sounds this world has to offer. Just stay away from those kids with the 8 inch exhausts on thier rice-rockets. Latez!

Aw dude, you left before we ran the Comptech! If you had only stayed another 30-40 minutes...Check out the thread on the Dyno day. I made a little list.

Short version:

HKS - Higher pitched, motocycle like
Comptech - lower rumble

Isn't this a great time to be alive. We have so many advances in technology not possible even 10 years ago. Congradulations!
My wife had Lasik done 6 months ago. Walked in the docs office with glasses. Walked out without them and 20-30 vision. Woke up the next morning crying with better than 20-20. She was crying cause in 18 years she's never seen me in the morning.
Now we have a state of the art car to enjoy. Oh well, some day. Mine isn't here yet.
