I'm putting it on tomorrow, so full pics of it on a white 2Gb will follow soon.
and yeah i'll use a better camera (brother has one) when its done.

Looks good. I want one too. I hope the neckdown joint is the same length as the A'pexi one so I dont have to cut on my test pipe, I mean cat pipe.

It will definitely look the best on a white 2Gb.

the verdict - easy to install, excellent, rumbly sound esp. at idle. haven't tried the silencer yet but i will this afternoon

Silencers are for wusses. Looks really good, never heard of the brand but it looks better than my apexi dunk.

It does look very nice.

I just put this exhaust on my gst. simply amazing with a great deep tone.

 

[GPTourer]

It looks like it has more of an angle then the N-1 and a slightly smaller cannister, maybe?

i was thinking the same thing when i was looking at it. But i hear it out flows the N1. It looks really goood and iam dying to hear how it sounds b/c i hear good thing about this exhaust , so sound clips are a must

 

[thefunkpig]

sound clip will be up tomorrow

 

[thefunkpig]

here's an audio wav file of it idling:

i need someone to host a video version that has idle, revving, and a trip up and down the street.

Once i get that up a full review will be posted in the tech article / review section of the board.

Dingum.... That looks good (on a white 2g, of course! ). Seeing those pics makes me really anxious to get mine. I am ordering mine tomorrow! Ummmm.... just don't know from who yet. Either RRE for $490+$45 shipping or from some ebay seller that will give it to me for $490 and FREE shipping. I just trust RRE more. What would you do??? Anyways, I am bummed. I can't get the sound byte because I got a freakin' Mac. Any help there??

Well... looks good bro. Just can't wait to get mine...

 

[vkalloo]

good buy, looks really nice

 

[Turbo Talon DL]

Sounds pretty decent to me Just wait till you get some big cams with that Its really crisp, not quite as smooth as mine, but it is deep How does it sound above idle and such? With and without silencer?

 

[WatchItExplode]

is the neckdown for connecting to the stock cat?

YES.

 

[Microrcdude]

that thing looks SICK! Has a good angle to it. Looks better than the old one

 

[speedy13]

nice,how many organs did you have to donate to get it? J/K,anyhow,sounds great and thanks for the clip,it's now my windows startup sound.

 

[HIGHWAY]

it does have a nice rumble sound i bet it really sounds mean a WOT.

If you are saving $45 then just go with Ebay. Check the seller, if he has sold a lot of parts and he has a good rating then why spend so much on shipping. You are getting the same piece, who cares if you trust one person over the other. I think this exhaust looks awesome, it's really too bad they only make it for FWD 2G's.

[Zmann42087]

Yea.... but I decided to go with RRE anyway, becuase I am also getting RRE's front strut bar, so I needed to pay shipping for that anyway.

The Espelir exhaust is not just for the gst! They have it for the RS/GS too, and one for the 2g GSX is coming out soon!

did he ever get the video up anywhere?? just wondering if i missed it some where.

 

[VRMAN]

That is in my Top 3 best exhaust systems, hands down. Great look and great sound.

since we are on the exhaust topic, I thought i would post a link to my new PIT 3" SS catback.

It sounds quiter and a little less rumbly than thefunkpig's exhaust. BTW, that espelir is a nice exhaust indeed. nice pics.
