there is an RS-R thread started at least once every two weeks . . .please search next time

anyways, they don't make one for an SH. you'll need to get one for a base model and have an exhaust shop cut ~6 inches of pipe at the end and reweld the flange - not a big deal really.

and currently you can't get a new RS-R anywhere - they're redesigning it and it could be a few months yet before it goes on sale again. Rumor is that it's going to be all 304 stainless steel this time around, not the cheaper 409 and that it will not be painted black. Sound should be the same and price should be a little lower. Maybe they'll do an SH version this time around.

 

RSR never made one for the SH model as far as I could find. You can make it work by cutting down the base model and welding on the flange. I'm not sure how much longer the base is you might want to check how the EVO2 is set up and measure the "adapter" they have which makes the base and SH interchangeable.

 

they need to hurry and make them again. i want one and i hope they dont shy from the all black approach thats one reason i liked it lol.

 

The exhaust should only be a couple months away, maybe 2 months

They said the same thing last time I called, 2 months ago

 

Andy's Autosport still has them for like $439. Couldn't find them anywhere else.

 

well if it is 2 months then that works out fine with me need a lil while to save up now that im buying another lude

 

they're no longer making the exhaust coated in black, it's going to be stainless steel.

 

how can i contact them????

 

dont know if they have started to update the site. but it dosent list the prelude under applications for exmag. http://www.rs-r.com/products/exhaust/exmag.php

hope they are not doing away with us

 

bump. b/c there isnt a prelude exhaust on their site im gunna be pissed if they took us off the production line.

 

Alright, Just called the other day The New exhaust is expected in Mid November it will be all stainles steel. 304 insted of 409.

 

will there be a 4th gen prelude app?

 

*BUMP*

Does anyone knows more when and if it will be coming for the prelude?

On the Modacar.com site the give us a picture from a new exmag in fully stainless steel and not the old black one, but not on the RS*R site. Very strange

I hope it will have the same sound as the old one but a straight piping this time for a better flow as many other exhaust.

The reason why it sounds decent is because it is not a straight through exhaust. If it was straight through it would be loud droney and farty like all the rest of them.

 

yeah this site has them too http://www.hopupracing.com/rsrexexhoprf.html but they dont make it for the sh

I thought RS*R's signiture was stright through design? Well the GT2 is. One thing i find weird is most aftermarket headers and exhaust's are small (IE DC for one), 2" at the collector right? If this is so, most people set up to a 2.5" collector for more power. This being said, Wouldn't you want something with bigger piping and not small like the 60MM ~2.362" piping? You might aswell just get custom made piping along with a bigger muffler unless RS*R is going to up the piping size aswell. Right?

 

The Exmag on Hondas is a chambered design, and it ends up being pretty reasonable. The Exmag GT series a typical JDM coffee can with very straight piping.

Of course, a friend of mine put it something like this: Why pay $(large number) for an exhaust that sounds like stock and doesn't give any real performace benefit?

60mm is pretty typical NA Honda exhaust sizing. Which, especially for bigger engines like the H22 could be improved upon.

 

exactly, typical honda exhausts are below the 2lt range. if you want performance, might as well go with bigger piping than the aftermarket places supply. and get the muffler of your choice

 

The new site from RS*R is released but now Exmag for the Prelude on there site.

I send them an email. Hope they would give some good answers. I will put it here after
