I've been driving around with this exaust for about a week now and though I would give all you a review :)

Key features:- 2 peice design- powdercoated steel- 3 inch strait through with 3 inch tip- no resonator- Non-canister muffler

Let me say I love this exhaust, its classy, low key, and simply the quietest 3 inch exhaust system I have ever heard. My car has a full exhaust system (turbo manifold with 1 inch runners, turbo extention, 3 inch downpipe, high flow catalyser) which generally makes most turbo motors wickedly loud, and even though it lacks a resonator, this exhaust keeps things on the down-low. It has awesome tone and sound great when you romp on it.

And now for pictures:



I have some other reviews of stuff on my cardomain site too http://www.cardomain.com/id/fiss240

Well its always good to have something quiet so the cops dont stop you it would be worse if you also had a sr20, anything to keep the cops away.

Pennsylvania cops dont care about the motor, all they care about is inspection stickers, liscense and registration.

Nice review. I prefer the non-canister type too cuz it draws less attention. ;)

I'd really like to hear a sound clip too.

another PA resident, anyway i have the GT-II system that RS*R makes and i must say that their quality is amazing. fits on the hangers perfectly and not rattles or anything to disapoint. the GT-II is a bit loud for N/A but hopefully ill get it to quiet down a bit when i install the turbo in a couple weeks.

also, j-spec: do you have any problems trying to pass inspection with your SR?

If someone can tell me how, I will take some video-audio clips and post them. I have a 8mm camera and can get it on my computer, but dont know where to host.

I dunno if its state wide, they didnt ask for any proof, I guess they just have it on file or something.
