Default Buddy Club Racing Spec II

Anybody in SOCAL have it installed in their EF ? I know people say it's loud, but I want to hear it in person. But you have to have CAT installed otherwise it's just as loud as other straight pipe. I'll pay you $20 for your time, and I even come closer to your place so you don't have to drive far. Thx

The thing is, all the clip try to show how loud it is, what I want to hear the sound when it's idling and normal drive. The video clip doesn't lie, it just not gonna justify the real sound when different computer different speaker. So again... anybody ?

It's loud regardless. My buddy Devon has one on his sedan and it's STUPID loud. Regardless of if he's getting on it or babying it around town. There is absolutly NO way to quite down that exhaust.

I don't have my any more because it is too lound. I sold the muffler section because it is basiccaly a straight pipe. So, if you want to get a true replica of how lound it sound and if you have an aftermarket exhaust, just take off the axleback section and you have yourself a Buddy Club Racing Spec II.
Let me put it this way, if you have a slightest concern about the loundness of your exhaust, the Buddy Club Racing Spec II is NOT for you.

Ok it's loud, and how much it cost to make custom pipe with stainless pipe not aluminium one, anybody know ? I want to decide buy this thing and take it to muffler shop to make a custom connection so, I can using the piping with my HKS muffler on daily and The Buddy club muffler on track day, since the buddy club piping must be made by many dyno tune rather than muffler shop jut to fit it to the car, and the HKS piping it's heavy and small. So again anybody have it on their Hatch or crx ? now I want to see if can be made like I plan. Thank you

The muffler shop will be able to do any way you want them to as long as you pay. The reason I kept my BC Spec2 piping is beacause that thing is the lightest of all the piping I have owned up to date. I have a titanium axleback (weight like notthing) that I'll have the muffler shop mate it to the BC Spec2 piping for my cRx.

you need to check the sanctioning body regarding a noise ordinance then. It isn’t more so for the track, but the surrounding areas and officials do measure the db level of exhausts. If it’s too loud then you’ll have two option…add elbow on the end of the exhaust to help curb the noise or take it off and put on a different exhaust. But like I said, check the rules the organization you run with.
