Which B-Pipe

With quite a few B-Pipes around such as Spoon, T1R and Megan, i'm having trouble as to which B-Pipe would be suitable with my Tanabe Concept G Exhaust.

As far as i'm concerned, the only b-pipes i know of are mentioned above including Aspec, but which in your opinions, would be the best?

I have been looking at Spoon's but i'm unsure regarding this one as where-ever i look, the description always says, 'Designed specifically/works best with the N1 Muffler.'

Does that mean, the Spoon variant only works if you have the N1, or can you use other manufacturers (Tanabe/HSK/BC/T1R) with the Spoon pipe?


Guidance appreciated.

the spoon b- pipe will work with any axle back exhaust that bolts up to the stock b-pipe. i would recommend the j's racing b-pipe cause there is no resinator so it flows exhaust more freely. if you are concerned with cost i would go with the t1r.

I second the J's; I've had mine for about a year and a half and it's truly excellent. I couldn't imagine being as satisfied with any other.

For b-pipes without resonators, it would increase in a more free flow, gaining some ponies, but by doing so, wouldn't you lose some torque?

I also plan to get a b-pipe. I would think that the spoon increases compression of the air, so there's more torque.

As I have a HKS Hi-Power axleback, the day I installed it, it felt as if a little torque was lost with the freeflowing type muffler. So i would believe adding some more a b-pipe with a resonator like Spoon's B-pipe, would increase in low end power? Especially with freeflowing exhausts like the HKS, Spoon N1, and those types?

Whatever the b-pipe though, they all have performance, but probably in certain points. This one is more torque, that one is more horsepower, some is mixed.

I got Aspecs but I still need to install. I'll post what I think when I do.
