Not all singles are loud. Ive seen and heard singles. I want to get a single too. Im getting a single mandrel bent piping for my Apexi N1 muffler along with an unresonated test pipe. I just havent decided if I want to go 2.5 or 3 inch piping for my N/A S2K. Ive seen an impressive dyno from a N/A 3-inch single exhaust S2K! What ya'll think? Im also wondering why Amuse, T1R, Spugen, etc. didnt all go 3 inch as well? Why did they stay at 2.5? I wonder if 2.5 gains more than 3? But for the record, I have seen gains with a 3-inch single.

Yeah I know. I think in some countries, you can buy 8-bedroom houses for cheaper than an Amuse exhaust

I don't know why people don't like the look of a single. To be honest, the only part of the S2000 that I always thought looked silly was the fact that it had dual exhaust on a 4 cylinder. It's like one of those ugly Civics with fiberglass body kit with 2 mufflers welded on. It's just out of place. The single is much better looking imo. T1R is the cheapest and provides great gains. The straight back exit is much more refined and sleek looking too.

I have the apex-i n-1 single and it get's loud when your driving and hitting v-tec hard but with regular driving if you keep it at a normal rpm it will stay at a very low tone and sounds great. Also, it comes off to an angle and is definately way lighter than stock exhaust. Although, I haven't heard that many people give feedback on this exhaust making me think not that many people have this exhaust, not sure why? But I love the sound of that and the aem intake together, it's great!

Actually at first, i didn't like how it looks.....(T1R70mm). But after a while, it started to grow on me!! Looking from the back in another car, it actually looks pretty good.. Nice and shinning and it's well angle. I like the bends on the pipe from the midpipe back.
