I have a J's w/test pipe. For me it seemed to smooth out VTEC transition. I also have my car tuned with a VAFC. The main reason I like the test pipe tho, is that is sounds much better w/o the cat.

Did you ever have the J's exhaust without the test pipe?

I ran w/ the test pipe about a week and reset the ECU before I dyno'd it. As you can see, I lost a considerable amount of torque and hp before VTEC.

I reset it on a 2nd run and yielded the same results.

Yup, I still have it because:
1. It's 10lbs lighter than stock
2. It takes the drone out of my Spoon N1
3. I have some serious BTR High Output cams and springs now , and am hoping it will help out on my next dyno trip.
