For the amount of money an RS*R exhaust cost, I would think it should be perfect. I have dealt with 3 RS*R catback systems, and on everyone the flanges were warped, and they don't include the ball type flange, so it will leak if you just simply bolt it up.

i was gonna say the HKS was the best looking.. but im really feeling the all stainless.. MAN, those tips look good..

shit man, they make that system for a hatch too??

Yes, they do make it for the hatch as well... Scorpion is out of the UK, these have to be ordered from there, or brought in by a shop who deals with them. The quality is really, really high.

88civhatch · 08-15-2005, 04:55 PM

is that a bad loud?

Its a deep loud, but it is very loud

I think the thermal looks too blinged out and the same with the scorpion. The sp2 has a huge looking tip and so does the tanabe. I have never heard anything bad about the RS*R everyone votes it awesome but no one can produce any pictures besides that yellow crx on the rsr website. If someone can post a few good pics of the RSR im ordering that biatch tonight. I found a website that carries them for 510 shipped

Read what I put, I have dealt with 3 of them, and all had warped flanges that did not seal correctly

crexer · 08-15-2005, 06:05 PM

i read your post and I believe you but I have also heard about 20 people saying the rsr system is the best one to have. I would go for the hks but its only 50mm piping vs. rsr and a lot of others that are 60mm. So yours were warped at the flanges and came without some gaskets?

CaliforniaHighwayPatrol · 08-15-2005, 06:29 PM

I am going for the sleeper look, so any suggestions on exhaust???

crexer · 08-15-2005, 06:31 PM

hks

There was a thread awhile back ago, about the rs*r catback systems rusting pretty bad, after about a year or two. I can't see to find the thread, it might of got deleated. I'm not the only one that thinks rs*r is way over rated. And it came with no gasket for the rear section.

I can tell you this, if you don't want to be heard then no, if you don't mind it be loud, and the neighbors won't call the police, yes.

CaliforniaHighwayPatrol · 08-15-2005, 08:44 PM

I know Skunk2 makes great products, but I hear there exhaust sucks

stevescivic · 08-15-2005, 08:49 PM

so given the choice between the rs*r and the greddy sp2 you guys would take an rs*r?

I want an exhaust on my car but my fear of the rs*r and its black powder coat that over time it will chip off and look crappy.

Thanks

fat-tony44 · 08-15-2005, 09:23 PM

actually one thats not on the list is the alphawerks full catback system i love the one on my hatch, stainless, tig welded, perfect fit,
2.5", and i doesnt have that cheap fartcan sound, i love it!
nexusindustry.com check it out. a bit expensive but i got mine bout 2 months ago on ebay for $315 w/shipping

EH3USDM · 08-15-2005, 10:04 PM

HKS and Greddy both make great exhaust systems, they may be a little spendy but you pay for what you get.
