Yeah, I would have prefered a bit smaller myself. Hopefuly the bodykit ideas I have will make it look a bit more proportional. I will be going to the Dyno on Saturday also to see if there were any gains made. Will scan the results as I just bought a all in one printer/scanner.

Soundclip sounds amazing!! This is the exhaust for me! Can't wait to hear about the dyno and also the drive-by soundclip. Thanks!

Here is the Tanabe "Hyper" option...a bit quieter and more understated.

I am very happy with the sound....nice low frequency in the lower rpm's and at VTec it's hard to tell if there is much of a difference. I really like the sound on the downshifts. I did have an inch and a half trimmed of the tips because they were sticking out too much for my liking (they are more like the stock length now).

Yeah, I will actualy be trimming the pipe behind the muffler to set it back some. I will have to move the hangars too, but it should set it back just right.

I don't think there is any other available dual S2000 exhaust on the market that conveys more of a "purpose" than the Tanabe. For this reason alone, I knew I wanted it. The fact that it delivers impressive gains (5-7hp) in addition to weighing 13-lbs less than stock was icing
on the cake. This exhaust makes every underpass or tunnel sound like you're a member of Team Green!

For the tanabe, i believe couple members have already trimmed it and shorten the distance of which the mufflers stick out...it looks pretty good. But personally I think Amuse and Mugen are relatively better for their dual outlets.
