I've got the HKS myself, but I have to admit that the J's is nice. I'm not a huge fan of the curved down tip, but it looks good nonetheless. I can't believe that, for the price, the J's didn't come with the nuts either welded or loose, lol.

Nice muff bro. EXACT same one I was going to order but when I realized it's priced at the same price I got my entire Ti catback on my S2k, I kinda laughed!

Nice dude, thumb up here even if the blue does clash with your red wheels :P

It's not you...it does hang low compared to stock and to the HKS.

Here's a pic of the HKS...


I can live with the possibility of crunching up an HKS...and replacing it happily. Dunno about a low hanging Ti unit...I think my eyes would tear up

Doesn't sound much louder than the HKS...hard to say without a good long romp through the neighborhood and an "in cabin" sound clip...hint hint

For that much money you would think a couple bolts would have been included.

Trust me...it's a pain in the A$$ getting good audio from inside the cab. Took several tries to isolate where the majority of rattle was coming from before I got anything decent with the HKS (regarding audio/video).

Don't go gettin' into "neighbor" wars Nobody wins and everybody still ends up hating everybody... F**k em though if he can't take a little decible increase in the neighborhood! Rev that fugger!!!

Sounds nice. What was the cost if I may ask? Is there a video of a stock muffler to compare with somewhere I wonder.?

Incredibly quiet. Not sure if it'll fit the Mugen rear or if I should just stick with the Mugen exhaust too
