Default JiC bullet exhaust

does anyone have any dyno numbers for the JIC Bullet (Stainlees w/ Ti muffler) and pics of it on an s2000? I am thinking about buying one this week. Looks good for the money....

Find something else, JIC is complete trash. Friend had one on the S2000 and one on his integra. The welds broke on both and the exhaust fell off while driving.

I know this...I was just thinking if the JIC was good, I would try since it is cheaper.

I am going with the J's... the 60 RS is full Ti , and not just a Ti muffler right?

I had the JIC Magic and liked it at first. I lost a lot of top end with it and it was loud. Very loud. I was so happy getting rid of it.

the j's is full titanium, unlike the jic which really isn't (but i didn't say that). amuse would be a great exhaust as well, i would rate that over the j's but the cost is significant. ever since amuse usa closed we have been hit with higher costs and longer shipping times. for example we have one of the amuse widebody gt kits in stock, that will be the last one that we will ever have in stock into the u.s. unless amuse changes their policies. so expect prices to rise but at the same time we're going to try and actually hold a little more inventory of some of the exhausts then before. one thing that i've recommended to some who are looking for lightweight exhausts that are a good value is the buddy club spec 3. it's very lightweight stainless steel and it retails for less then half the cost of a j's exhaust. this leaves money to be devoted to other mods. only drawback to the buddy club is that it is definitely loud, but performance wise it's very nice...as for the j's 60rs, it will be much quieter and if your budget affords it...i don't think you'll find one that is better overall. i'm hoping we get some in soon because there has been quite a demand since the beginning of the year, lots of people don't like to do the order and wait stuff.

I don't know why I keep looking at other exhausts....everything keeps pointing to the J's. I get bothered by kids who want cheap mods for their S... I mean everyone would like to save money, but this **** ain't a civic. I am just going to wait and get the J's. ... I did see the buddy club, but I don't want a super loud car this time around....

You dont have to jump on the wagon with everyone else ****, the JIC is a very nice piece. Their were only a few out of hundreds that broke, that tells you something. Either shitty drivers or dumbass people.





JIC. JIC + TESTPIPE

I agree... and the JIC sounds good too..... the only major problem JIC has is Customer Service.... but i'd take a JIC over Spugen any day.. but i would take J's or Amuse over all....

but either way... every exhaust you get regardless of who you get it from.. custom, amuse, j's, JIC.. doesn't matter.. eventually it'll break... the constant heating up and cooling down of the metal makes it gradually get weaker.... and will eventually need replacement..

Thanks for the pics Hondas2000laguna blue. Have you done any dyno testing with it? People say the JIC Loses noticable power up top....Did you notice this? It look really nice. Do you have any more shots from the rear...just wondering how much of an angle it comes out at?

I read that spugen makes power gains.

eitherway T1R or J's Racing. </TD></TR></TABLE>

spugen power comes from the piping... but the material they use is junkyard trash. it's not even s/s. and the way it's weld... well... feels like looking @ old greddy exhaust w/ rust.

t1r... well... never really saw 1 on s2k... so.. no comment on that.
