Do you have your resonator on?

yeh i know its straight thru, i have it on my car, i was asking if anyone has first hand experience with the two and how much quieter is the spec III

**Spoon DA9R** · 25-01-2007 08:52 AM

its only about 2-3 times louder with spec2..specially when vtec kicks in it'll blast! anyone behind ur car or next to ur car will be deaf, ppl'll be able to hear ur spec2 within about a 1 km range..if vtecing..properly up to 2km...i m only guessing about the kms but i've been told by friends they hear me coming about 5 mins before i get to their house...its fun to have spec 2 for a while..but overtime...i got sick of it..i can't hear SHXT in the car!!!! cant hear music, can't even hear myself talk...

i've used spec2 and spec3, now i have ProSpec3....spec2 had the best quality back then, and spec 3 is better for streets, and some track circuit or club track days won't allow u to use spec2 as they have restrictions on the sound level and prospec3 is crap..i m tempted to sell mine, the prospec have way too much bass than the original spec3...i think they'll have stock again in april....but then its really ur choice...

the spec II is shitloads louder then the spec III

from what i've seen the spec III is deeper sounding exhaust, while the spec II sounds really barky/tinny

Was looking for the Spec III but couldnt find it anywhere.
So I ended up getting the Pro.

You make it sound so crap.

so do u like the sound of the spec III pro Kazaf?

**Spoon DA9R** · 25-01-2007 12:54 PM

hahaha it just really disappointed me i was looking for spec3 too but they stop making them, but i heard they are coming back..not sure if its true or not....coz the spec3 sound so much better (without the silencer) the design of prospec3 and spec3 is different and prospec is heavy coz of the bigger resonator and muffler and thicker metal...honestly if it knew prospec3 is like this...i'd rather get a js racing even if it cost a bit more...a lotta ppl like my exhaust...but since i've used spec2 & 3 when it was still ALL MADE AND DESIGNED IN JAPAN so the quality is so much better, the prospec3 just doesn't have it anymore

So did you have the pro spec without the resonator/silencer?
