One link: B-Pipe

They usually say 'Spoon B Pipe and N1 muffler'. I'm hoping they are not referencing the GK5 with the K20.
The post is a little misleading. B-Pipe and N1 Muffler is planned but not out yet.

Special thanks to Signature Autobody in Orange, CA for getting the car painted (then re-painted) super quick! We're all buttoned up now and off to SEMA soon. Stay tuned for a full set of photos next week!

I see you guys are keeping the a/c on the car. Is this just a sema car or will it eventually make its way onto the track?

The car is built for endurance racing in mind and last year at the 25 Hrs of Thunderhill the drivers were begging us to keep the heater in the car because they were freezing and losing sensation in their extremities. We were also having issues with window condensation so it helps to have the defroster still working. Driver fatigue is big issue when you've been driving for 4 hours and it's 3am and you're freezing.

Well, that's one way to keep them awake and focused.

I'm sorry but the heaters have been replaced by lightweight dry ice. Keep up the good work buddy.
Looking forward to the end result of your build as are many others.

We accidentally chose the wrong blue color for the front. The entire front end was repainted within hours.

I really like the Bisimoto Fit it's very well pieced together and I can't wait to see a turbo kit or even a supercharger for the Gk.

Spoon Sports B Pipe



'Tail Silencer [N1 Type] the ideal exhaust efficiency and torque, the power-up can be achieved by combining, you can achieve the maximum performance. Main pipe diameter 45Φ combination with genuine tail silencer Since you are using a flange of genuine same criteria is also possible.'


Tail Silencer [N1]


'L15B engine around also comfortably to high rotation while 1500cc, it is the name machine is reminiscent of the B16A engine that exhibits high output.
Torque, so that it can maximize the power, the pipe diameter ExhaustPipe-B is 45φ, silencer and be to a 50φ and megaphone,
without sacrificing the torque of the low-speed range, a sharp blow up the medium and high speed range output I've realize improvement. Adopts SUS436 pipe 50Φ of 1.2mm thickness, and finished strength in lightweight while sufficient. The combination of a genuine intermediate pipe Since you are using a flange of genuine same criteria is also possible. Exit diameter 65Φ sub silencer will fit SPP-18030-000. '

It's chromoly and was designed, cut, and bent in Japan using CAD. Therefore all the gussets and bends were done by laser and machine.
