Judging by the smile on your face as you pulled back in you're well pleased with it! It sounds awesome, do you get much resonance in the cabin?

Sounds awesome!
Just a couple of questions,
1)is your numberplate ment to be "Leper"?
2) is that your afro in the corner of the screen?

No not Leper never thought of that no body parts fallen off or melted away yey a few close calls though
And not my afro or south american arm pit hair flapping around in the breeze, got a pro camera (Canon XLS1) so has a proper mic with furry wind sock. Although could be useful as a substitute for the furry mitten!

Finally the bespoken ebay exhaust caught on tape

The "Noise" is to Sharp...To loud...To rally cros?? I like more race sounds like the other exhausts lets say from Jim?
But I realy like the Video!! Thunderbirds are go haha wonderfully done the start!

Sounds FLERPING nice.... think it'd be too extreme for me and most people everyday though.... think I'll stick with my Larini.

Also, is that your MIL light I can see flashing on the dashboard? (I'm an 1 pilot and I have no such annoyances)

I found the look of it ok! the way the pipes look at the end...but also I noticed only one pipe was smoking(the right pipe, from cold I gues) so that could mean?? more flow in that pipe then the other...hm...how are the other brands do? when I have 2 pipes I like it to have 2 smoking barrels at the same amount...

Is this the 'race' version:



or the 'sports' version:



At the moment I have the 'race' version on my Honda S2 and it's a little (mind you, just a tad) mental

Once it kicks to the high cam it really goes bonkers and I am slowly going deaf..

Trying to obtain one of the Maidstone Honda S2 silencers, but it seems to take ages to get here..


Bye, Arno.

Nice!!! I have sent videos of the same exhaust, oval tip, decatted, to Tony H to edit a comparison with the gentlemanly Larini. Once its posted I will let you decide :-) Its not so socially acceptable!

Indeed not realy socially acceptabe! and you can't go on some tracks and your neighbours don't like it...early in the morning or late at night
I would never buy such thing(though nice for 5 min fun maybe) I would not dear to stamp on the throttle now what fun is that? and the sound is to raspy? no, its fun for a DB contest, and not more then that (at least for me)
There are way better sounding exhausts on the market and stil acceptable...also when people hear 1 or 2 such exhaust noise a day on their streets, it feels like 10 or more and then people complain by law and that way you ban other drivers too, because the sound for those people is scarry and looks like a aso to fast driving car...?

Strange it sounds more raspy when cold but sound changes when hot
