RS*R exhaust installed! vids pg.3

Finally got it on along with the cam gear (2 degree advance). It looks great although a bit close to the bumper. I don't think it will be a huge deal cause the outer chrome part doesn't get very hot. Overall I'd say its a great exhaust. No rattles so far, and its on my sedan. Sound wise, its pretty loud like any other exhaust, prolly cause I have pnp, intake, and header too. You can hear it loud and clear under 4k, then the intake takes over. Power gains, well with the cam gear I felt a difference. It gets up to 65mph faster and has good low end. Didn't lose any throttle response. Anyway here are pics.

If you want the two mpeg vids, send me an IM: Metarian

now that's a good looking exhaust. No fart can tip. You've convinced that that is the only exhaust I would ever consider.

Ya looks very silimar to stock lexus and acura exhaust with the muffler black. I kinda wish the tip was smaller, but still looks okay.

yup ... I LOVED this exhaust ... very sleeper! ... I was constantly polishing my tip though haha.

the muffler looks VERY VERY similar to the 05 type s/type r rsx exhaust ... minus the angle up.

camera is dumb but at least sound was okay. yes lights were on just the digicam sucks at taking video. I actually would have had the wsII if it wasn't on back order. I'm so glad I didn't get it. Too much canister look and I bet the tip would have stuck out.

well check the second vid again, you started accelerating at 2 seconds into the vid and reached 60 at 12 seconds into the vid. 10 seconds! try again then.

Nice clips, gearbox. That setup sounds really good. I had my xhaust narrowed down to the RS*R or the WS2, but I ended up ordering the WS2 (<$$). You may have just set me up for a big disappointment if it doesn't sound as good as yours does...

I almost wish I went with the wsii for sound reasons. the rsr with my setup is just too loud at times, but at least it quiets down on the interstate. But I like the rsr better for looks. And I thought the wsii was on national backorder for a few months now. You could prolly get a refund...if you really don't want it. I've heard the wsii and its not as loud as rsr.
