the more i read about it the more im interested. there isnt a model specific picture of it on jics site yet but the description said that the can and tip are titanium and the pipe is stainless steel. oh! if i didnt say it or if the link doesnt say it this is an axle back.

Looks like any other typical canister style. The JIC name is great.

I heard of a S2000 dynoing 130something WHP with the JIC when it was removed and another exhaust was added it made 219whp. heard similar on a integra as well.

wow that is a huge difference. do you think it might have been that they were using a larger exhaust than necessary for that type of car? like a ridiculously huge pipe diameter for a naturally aspirated motor?

theres no way an exhaust would make you loose 90 hp

Yea... that. Something was up with the dyno calibrations or somethin?
Maybe the traction control was on? Hehh

definitely wasnt the dyno calibration. The car was dyno'd many times and couldnt figure out why it was making so little HP. Finally when the exhaust was removied it went back to its normal HP. When the JIC was put back on, the HP went down again. Also this was on a AP1 no traction control. It was definitely the exhaust.
