Hello from the US! 
Lloyd Six, was happy to find your forum and exhaust info on Magnaflow Cat-Back.
I have been searching the US forums for well over a month and unfortunately have NOT found a single photo of the Magnaflow cat-back system installed or ANY sound clips, only the engineering drawing on their site. Many S2000 owners have installed the Magnaflow 14325 stainless mufflers on their stock exhaust and are very happy with the sound, deep but not TOO loud, and NO droning due to retaining the hemholz resonator (6" 90 degree pipe). Many other systems have regulator resonator but have read & heard droning complaints.
I have found pictures and sound clips of just about everthing else available but didn't like the "look" of some (Tips like coffee cans, UGH! just my opinion).
Supersprint sounds & looks great but at some cost (at least over here).
I ordered my Magnaflow Cat-Back system just last Thursday after much deliberation and cannot wait to put it on. In the meantime be looking forward to seeing pics and more of your car.

Call Magnaflow, ask for Brian Vandyke, tell him you have been chatting to Lloyd from the UK, if you are not happy with the tails (nor am i) get him to change them for something nicer... like 35177 4" angle tips.

Hmmmm.... It all becomes clear, and I suspected as much!
Honesty prevailed in the end though
Get some pics up. I imagine you are infringing some forum rules though
The one on the Integra that was in banzai / jap car some time ago did look like a good piece of kit though.

Do you make decat pipes, if so how much and do you sell the anti fouler fitting?

The S2000 is OEBD-II so not to wise to go de-cat, so im looking at producing a high-flow cat, standard = 400cfm, im considering 200cfm or even 100cfm really it depends on the diagnostic probe (rear Lambda) picking it up and giving a trouble code.
200cfm is a 50% increase in flow, 100cfm is 75%.
De-cat is 100% but trouble code P0430 will keep appearing in ECU`s data putting the EML on every other day.
I can let you know when i have these available?

This has been dealt with on the S2000 via 2 methods. One is a spacer / adapter which brings the secondary lambda out of the exhaust flow a little (ok as it has no fuelling control) or some do it via an electrical fix (which I dont like)
Its called an anti fouler and quite easy to get hold of. Just a threaded adapter. many on here use it.
Keep us posted!
