Default Interested in a F1 Sounding Exhaust for the S?

Just wanted to post this out there to see if there's any interest in a F1 sounding exhaust for the S2000.

Pride Exhaust currently makes a beautifully exotic sounding exhaust for the NSX and is one of the more popular options for the NSX. Welds and quality are exceptional, with all hardware included. In addition to exhausts, Pride also makes headers and test pipes as well.


This is the exhaust I have on my NSX, and it screams like crazy. I wouldn't trade it for any other exhaust, despite the Pride exhaust costing up to $3k less than some of the high end JDM pipes.

Some sound clips:

With sufficient interest, JS2k and Pride can make this exotic exhaust a reality for the S2000.

Feel free to let your opinions fly.

a. probable, but may vary depending on test pipe or HFC or stock cat. The owner and designer of Pride is also very aware of issues with drone and rasp.
b. most likely a good amount lighter
c. probable as well.

Interesting idea for sure. Looks like a rear section that could bolt to a variety of mid-pipes would be the way to go.

That nsx sounds the best I've heard to date. I'm concerned that our 4 banger won't be able to get a deep tone and rasp will over power. The deepest exhaust I've heard on rhe S is greddy tic. If it can be deeper growly like that I'm interested. Love exhaust and I've had many many.

That would be cool, I'd buy that and link it to a Gernpipe for sure!

s2000 will not have that kind of high pitching sound. keep in mind, AP2 even sounds deeper than AP1. arms engineering already tried it on AP1, and it only sounds a little bit high pitching at peak rpm. if pride exhaust can bring a different story, i will buy one without looking at the price.

also, extra piping is no good for hp/tq.

F1 engines sound the way they do because they rev to 18,000 RPM. That NSX sounds nice but I wouldn't call it anything close to F1.

If the exhaust looks and sounds good, while being offered at a decent price I would be all over it.
