Default Best S2000 Test Pipe?

For fitment and quality, who makes the best straight pipe for the S2000?

Spoon?
Comptech?
Anyone else make them?

Do they sound nice when using the stock exhaust?

Thanks!

Take it to a local shop and have them do it.

Also, try researching for some of the stuff you want, these companies have websites.

Are there any gains to running a test pipe with few other mods? Say intake and exhaust.

Just the test pipe alone will give you more horsepower and torque.

Better flow = better power.

it will give you a CEL, as well as harm the enviroment.

test pipes make you stink at stoplights.

there are other ways to gain power.

Spoon, T1R and Comptech makes a test pipe.

I sold my Spoon test pipe that came with my exhaust. I think it's useless.

Spoon test pipe is the best! Of course I am being bias because it is on my car. Now Thizzle, I wouldn't want to say that it doesn't do anything. I certainly feel more mid-range and top-end. By the way, thanks for selling it to me . How's the toda header and how much did you buy it off of the Euro dude? I'll be back with you guys in the touges (mountain runs) as soon as my JDM moter comes through. Latez!

Cliff, what's up man? A bunch of people were telling me the test pipe doesn't do much and triggers the CEL. Also, I didn't want to risk getting pulled over and fined a huge amount for having no cat. Did you get the device that doesn't let the CEL engage? Glad you're happy with it.

The TODA header is great. I haven't had a chance to dyno yet because I'm waiting to get a V-AFC and tune it. I'm just hoping to make between 215-220rwhp. VTEC engagement is much smoother. Mid-range and high-end has definitely improved.

JDM motor?!?! What's the difference? We've been doing quite a few mountain runs lately. PM me when your car is ready to run!
