I've seen a lot of S2Ks go single IMO looks better but your car is still hot.

Black is the best color but looks like yours been though a lot. Get it detailed!

what is the fart signature like?


(he posted he picked up the S2000- it was very nonchalant though- just a sidebar to another comment.)

isn't it pretty typical that you get 0 to a marginally meaningless more amount of hp unless you are moving a serious amount of air through there (ie fatty turbo)

fart cans indeed: picked up the s2k in detroit on labour day. we have no garage so... that's only after 2 wks of not getting a car wash.

i like the single out setup as well (less weight if no hp gains) and will probably try to take the left side out and get a connecting pipe made at a muffler shop. that said, i couldn't say no to the tanabe as it was only $130 used...

i don't hv the patience / equipment to do a thorough detail. preferably i can get some1 to do 10 coats of Zaino Z5 but... anyone got recs for a detail shop between SouthSide and O'hare?

Take the silencers out and are those just mufflers or is there a whole after-market exhaust on there

^ it's the whole Tanabe catback + a Berk Tech test pipe (for off road use only of course). i'm not taking the silencers out.. i put 'em in after i heard the finished install. sounded like a japanese lawn mower...

that said, i have muy swirls on my car. anyone know a good (reasonable) detailer? no patience to do waxing on my own... gotta get it done b4 winter..

I picked up a PC7424 with a set of pads and polishes. I cant believe professional detailers charge $100+ using the same stuff and seeing how easy it is to use.
