Default Fujitsubo Legalis R

Hey guys, wondering if anyone has a fujitsubo exhaust on their car. I'm 99% sure this is the exhaust I want but I'd love to hear it in person first. The youtube videos aren't very good and I know the exhaust is hard to come by. I'm looking for something a little louder than stock but not too loud.

Thanks

Scott

I have the fujitsubo exhaust. There are a few of us that have it. If you don't like loud exhausts then this is by far the best one IMO. I'm supercharged though so that makes it sound a little louder than NA.

I was under the understanding that this exhaust was no longer in production. If I was going to get an exhaust it would be this one but I thought they were no longer in production, even though Speedstar lists them on their website ?. Can someone confirm if it is out of production ?

Usually the other way around. Mine dropped 2dB after boost.

Mine seems louder than any S2000 that has the same exhaust NA. I guess it's an assumption that it's louder.

I thought SC makes exhausts louder. Turbos quiet them down though.

When I had my fuji it was quieter than Playa t9k's car

IMO I think you should try the UK exhaust mod instead of trying to hunt down the fuji.

Was thinking of the UK exhaust mod also....I've heard them online and noticed the exhaust note changes depending on the size of tubing used. Is there any performance gain from the UK exhaust mod ? I have a PLM header (not installed yet) and want to order a Berk 70mm HFC.

I used to have one. Didn't like it. Barely noticed much of a difference between stock and the fuji. Have an ASM 70mm now and it's quiet when I need it to be and has a nice grunt when I step on the peddle.

back to where you can find them, I thought you could still find them new outside the US

Having gone for a ride in Nick's car and having him pass me on the road that exhaust sounds awesome at the top end of the rpm range, almost motorcycle like. It might be too quiet for some people that want more sound out of their exhaust, it is quiet from inside the car but it sounds really nice outside at full song.
