I love this Exhaust...
It is JASMA approved
I don't know if this applies to all the exhaust, but mine also has a serial number embedded to the exhaust it looks neat, since the first two letters are black while the numbers are all polished.
When I first got it and compared to my stock exhaust, the weight between the two was a big difference... The stock one was way way heavier.
Another thing I noticed that the brackets that holds the exhaust up are hollow.
Just one problem though... the exhaust was a tad bit longer than the stock one, I don't know why it was about 1" longer. So have a muffler shop to cut an inch off the pipe.
After installation, the sound of the exhaust was near stock. One Note I want to emphasize is that, an exhaust does not need to sound loud to give any performance gain. At high rpms the exhaust was not too loud nor sounded like a rice rocket.
After driving around for a while with this system, my car feels smoother. The vtec crossover was smooth as well. When I was in 4th gear @ 4000rpm and wanted to pass someone, I did not need to down shift to third and do a rapid change lane, I just opened the throttle more and the car picked up SMOOTHLY with no problems.
My MPG has gone up as well.
I do not have any sound clips at the moment, but I have a few pictures...
