Hope you didnt pay much for those wheels
and nice work with the gli taco cluster :thumbsup:
Nice one! Aye is Hondworld like a pick and pay thing or do you have to ask them for the parts?
You have to ask,
sometimes if theyre in nice mood youre allowed to browse around and check stuff but not often
the experience and prices with that place is very dependent on the owners daily mood ;)
That is starting to look like my EK!
$150 for a set of 4 with brand new tyres all round :)Quote:

Nah I'm not depending on anything, it's just great cause they're all roadworthy. When I have enough $$ for some decent 15x8's I'll get some good sticky tyres to go with. And I'm always careful in the rain :)Quote:

It's a 2.5" tip. It has a 3" inlet on the rearQuote:

I quite like the sound. It's quieter than stock at idle, sounds great in the low end too.
obx brand? where did you buy it and how much if you don't mind me askingQuote:

Let the fun times begin :)
Just waiting on f7's type R LCA's to arrive then installation!
Likely to be the camera, doesn't sound at all raspy to me, at least not when I'm driving. The intake might interfere too.Quote:

lol some people are on a budget hahaha, mugen twin loop are good but pricey, i might as well look for a dc2r muffler when mines gone if not maybe xforce twin loop.
800 for a new x force twin loop is not on a budget
price was listed from a member on here
i thought they go off for about 500ish?Quote:

Anyways, forget twin loop, get a good JDM cat back, like Fujitsubo, kakimoto or Vision N1, they are just as quite if not slightly louder, all comes down to the muffler canister design, the center muffler an resonators, just cause its a cannon design doesnt mean it would b loud, food for thought!
yeah i would buy new fake copy parts over quality second hand parts, every one has eyes and a brain to work out if the used part is still good or not
all the exhaust you mention are still loud
best exhaust would be a ek9 cat back
I would've got the real thing if I wasn't an apprentice making $7.80 an hour lol..Quote:

Mmmmmm. Dp want ek9 catback. Only have the axle back so far
i wouldnt know what fake parts go forQuote:

fuuknnn LOLOLOL......for the money of twin loop, U can buy a new cat back from the US LOL, and anyways, if ya do ur research u would know mugens twin loop are restrictive Hence why none of the Ek9 boys in europe use em and also in the USA none of the ek/dc guys use em, an waste of money on a performance pov.... IF i remember awhile ago in a Honda magzine, the power gain was pretty much similar to oem vs say a straight flow cat back with a good oval muffler which had a power gain of 5 - 10 hp back to back on a hub dyno
Heres a few names for around $1000 - $800, Apexi WS2, DC Sports, and Magna flow just to name a few.... and forget mugen, just cause its from japan doesnt mean squat nowadays, better off getting a new cat back, would u rather a 5 - 10 year 2nd hand cat back or new cat back for same money?
Bam! haha :thumbsup:Quote:

so it makes it inferior to the examples you mentioned
Honestly from my previous mugen twin loop (axle back) compared to my twin loop by xforce (axle back aswell) the xforce came out Much quieter for some unknown reason.
This is with an oem ek9 b pipe with decat
I'm uploading the video now of the xforce for you to have a listen
But the xforce I own is alot quieter then most people's, unknown reason...
2.5" straight pipe whole way guys
what engine? , got a video of sound?Quote:

i stuck with this exhaust because i got defected for my previous cannon muffler (Vision N1)
this muffler whilst driving its really un-noticable, only time it really becomes alive is when i'm coasting in a high gear or rev towards rev limit.
PHO might have a few opinions on it, he took my car for a drive a few times and no ones ever complained LOL
Dont just assume non of us have ever owned a jap spec cat back ;)... Ive already gone through 2 setups, 5zigen cat back and Vision N1 cat back which i have atm... Quality is top notch, welds are exceptional! BUT those were built only 10 - 5 yrs ago, fastward now, u can pickup a new cat back for lesser price $500 - $800 vs $1500 for a jdm cat back minus the shipping an taxesQuote:

so who would pay 1500-1800 for a 2nd hand exhaust ?
so have you owned a mugen twin loop is the question not owning a jdm exhaust ?
so why have you got a jdm exhaust when you reackon jdm is shit as mentioned earlier
what do you think the vision exhaust would of cost if you had to buy it new from japan .........
the original topic of discussion was between a $800 x force twin loop and a used twin loop for about the same amount the money
you must have a massive price tag exhaust too, because vision went bust too if you didnt know
wtf, how do you justify buying fake exhausts, look at the replica N1 compared to the real N1 , the difference of noise is unbelieveable.. If your going to go an exhuast for a jap car, source it directly from japan.. Like everyone always goes on about X-FORCE, next minute 10,000 complaints upon the forum regarding their headers cracking and problems with their e systems,
Work up the money and spend the bit extra and get something that will make the difference. Everyone's opinion to their own i guess.
I have custom exhaust that should fit your car matt if your looking at changing the system.
After going with a jasma approved spoon b-pipe and spoon n1 axle back, There is not a chance that i would go anything else , not even mugen.. next thing is toda headers which are on hold for me!

Where did i ever mention JDM is shit? i must be blind cause All i said was Mugen twin loop is a crap house design thats over priced that wont net u any real world performance gains!! hahaha
I can tell u right now Given the rough estimate, $1500 easy! for most jap spec cat backs new so vision much like any in-house Japanese company
And for argument sake the X-force would be the better one to buy
a) its new!
b) IT flows better an will perform better as its a true 60mm exhaust all the way from cat to muffler canister and the piping that snakes into the canister
c) Its local and will fit on our ADM vehicles with no mods
d) If any problems will arise xforce has warranty
this mugen tissue box way better quality than those cheapo ones,lightweight but strong and also has brag power too
http://s16.postimage.org/8n5oc4b3p/C...r_Staff_01.jpg
Their is nothing to brag about , and yes the tissues might come out eaiser due to the aero dynamics of the box.
