Ok let me start by saying I know there allready reviews of this product, but I know I like to read all I can. My car is an 05 seabring S2K with 69k on it. Only mod before the test pipe was a invidia q300.

Installation: installation was strait forward and fitment was great. Just unbolt and rebolt the test pipe in place.

Sound: I love the sound of it with the exhaust. But it is very loud if that's not your thing. It made the exhaust sound more like that of my nsx when it had test pipe and exhaust. It may just be me, but vtec sounds more pronounced.

Power: Again may just be me but I seemed to feel more of a difference from the test pipe than the exhaust. It seems to feel better up top but I did not notice the power loss on bottom that some people talk about. Overall very happy.

Basically if you don't mind your car being loud, id definently say to purchase one of these. I have put around 25 miles on te car since with no cel. So for the price I'm very happy. And as always off road use only!

lol yes but some people insist on reading a hundred reviews of something before they purchase..even something as small as a testpipe

Normally I'd agree with the whole "Really? Review on a test pipe?" but the Invidia ones seem to not have a very reliable CEL 'fix'. I have a Berk 63.5mm TP and have had zero problems with the CEL coming on.

^^ thats one of the reasons that i read into them initially. Instead of getting the invidia to match my exhaust. So hey im just tryin to help out.

I had a invidia 70mm test pipe and q300 and the sound was stupid loud with lots of cracking and single cam rasp at 3k-3800 rpm. It is not how an s2000 f series should sound. After 4 days with the TP i ordered a berk 70mm HFC. Tonight i installed my berk 70mm HFC to my q300 and I love it. no more rasp. Just a deep tone throughout. There isnt any more or less drone from the test pipe. Exhaust is quiet on start up and DD's just fine. HFC > invidia TP all day.

( 06 CTSC s2000 )

side note: with the TP, i was so scared when a cop stopped next to me at a redlight because the car is so loud and cracks if i rev above 3k rpm. I was super sketch!
