Have any of you Upper Mid-Westerners done this mod? Thinking about doing this to my stock AP2 and would love to hear one in person. Seems like a cool & inexpensive mod if you want a little louder/sportier exhaust note without going aftermarket. It doesn't sound ricey to me and apparently doesn't drone.

Here is a thread with sound clips https://www.s2ki.com/s2000/topic/977...mod-on-my-ap1/

And here's the original thread from the UK forum https://www.s2ki.com/s2000/topic/944056-exhaust-mod/

I have also been debating doing this. I have yet to go aftermarket due to ground clearence and would like to have a little more sound from my 02'.

I just had my resonator chopped out. Cost $40 at an exhaust shop. Not a mind blowing change, but a cheap way to add a little noise.

I've since added a Berk HFC and am very happy with the sound.

I did this as well and was pleased with the results for the money. Maybe the two in combination would produce really sweet results for cheap?

Not a bad idea! Although the puping size is still pretty small

Yeah, but you still have the factory routing, too, so I doubt it's any worse flow than OEM. That far back, I don't think additional turbulence in the flow would affect performance.

You gutted a CR. Muffler before didn't you? How did that sound? I imagine it would sound very similar.

i was about to do it before I picked up a great deal on a full cat-back.

sounds pretty good in this clip.

Out of all the videos I've watched, the 38mm pipe sounds the best to me. 44mm sounds to raspy/rattley. Smaller than 38mm just isn't loud enough. Personal preference though.
