I'm lookin for instructions on how to install it when you remove the lower half of the oem bumper and replace it with the lip instead of having it go over the existing lower half..

YES, thats half the beauty of it. You don't need an ITR to attend ITR Expo. just a love of Hondas and a need for speed. I think we all have that here.

the SW is in rough shape but I'd love to have one in that condition for daily/track use.
Don't have to worry about the leather as much as you do suede, or at least for me anyways.
That or an fg360 would be nice if they didn't go for so much. I'd be happy with one w/o the sought after horn pad.

That's rarer than rare, that's the first time I've seen it installed! Now, since it's on, you need to make a short video of what it sounds like, it's required for all Mugen Sports Muffler owners.

photo is from 2004, that particular muffler has been since sold. i do have two more currently but are not installed. the muffler is alittle quieter than the mugen twin loop design, which unfortunately doesnt make any decent noise for any sound clips. hence why ive never made any. the design is actually a very poor design in respect to air flow.

ive shown these over the years but figured some have not seen this before. damaged muffler i brought over and opened to see what the inside looked like. uses real fiberglass fibers to baffle the muffler. (due to the fibers holding moisture as the air passes through it also in time leads to the rusting from the inside effect which leads to the inner outlet pipe rusting through which is common with these mufflers)

It does look rather restrictive, and ground clearance is bad, but it would be a great piece at a show, which isn't my cup of tea, but it's the only reason I can think of to sport this muffler. Although, if your daily commute can keep it scratch free then I don't see why not. Nevertheless, it's very cool to see it installed and not in a catalog. How much do they go for these days?

actually at that time in 2004 i had the muffler on and i was lowered 3" with no finger gab and never had any problems with scratches, although depending on certain speed bumps did become a problem.

and yea its not a muffler you would want to use to gain any respectable gains in hp.

back in 2004-2006 when i had 5 of these mufflers i sold them from $600-$850

the two that i was able to find recently were purchased over the $1,000 mark so its not for everyone but i have a certain mugen theme im going for so it wouldnt make sense not to have it, much less two of them. like i said its not for everyone and yea the money could be spent somewhere else. LOL ive seen other sellers selling them for $1,600+
