The new set up
3-inch piping
3-inch HKS exhaust

Before install

After install

Now im only waiting on the rear bumper valance from the non-s (R50) to be completed.

Very satisfied with the install overall especially with how the car sounds. Ill post some sound clips later.
Many people thought the exhaust wouldn't fit saying it was too big or it would hang down too much, but after removing the stock exhaust, it fit just right.

 

Nice. Personally, I do not prefer the angle out, prefer it flush with bumper. Looks good though, HKS is a good brand exhaust. A sound clip and dyno run would be fun to see.

BTW: you might want to get some new tires. Don't know how the front are, but if they look like the rear you don't want to get on a dyno with them that bald.

 

Those look like slicks to me. :D

 

Looks nice

 

I really like that exhaust. Looks loud.

no resonator?

 

also where did you buy that? i cant find it anywhere

 

No resonator. I also thought it would have been loud but I would say its in the same range as the Milltek and Magnaflow exhaust. It has a deep tone to it and it doesn't sound like a loud can when you press like some of these honda kids.

The shop I go to already had 3-inch piping made for the car so I just bought the pan from HKS and put the two together.

I should have the sound clips up tomorrow.

 

yea that tire is gone...just put on a used tire since my run-flat actually went flat

 

Crappy about the tire.

Possible pic of the rear with the vehicle on the ground?

 

I'm surprised that more people don't go this route instead of the straight through/battery relocate route. Seems to be similar weight and performance gains.

 

I was going to do this! So glad someone did it! Sound clip? Still am going to do it. But was thinking about using a Invidia.

 

Video is a must!

 

here's the video

can look at the video

 

Interesting install. I'm actually contemplating on making an exhaust system like that but with a chambered muffler & OEM size piping to keep it near OEM exhaust sound levels. Possible or not?

 

That is Badass!

 

Its possible depending on the size of the exhaust which probably wont be bigger than the HKS I have here. At first I thought the HKS would have been too big but after removing the stock exhaust we had quite enough space.
