Just some pics of the exhaust taken last week, pre and post install. Sorry about the sloppy, dark, crappy nighttime pics of the exhaust actually on the car, but I work nights 6 days a week, so that's the only time I get to do anything. I'll try to put up some decent daytime pics later this week.

Had the car since June; was inspired to buy a Honda by my best friend's now totalled '99 SH and present 2k1 S2000.

If anyone is from around the Richmond, VA area, who does your work? I'm looking for another shop.

The link to the pics is: www.geocities.com/h22pwr/

sweet exhaust man! I'm still saving for mine. I heard a Prelude with one a few months ago and that thing sounds AWESOME!! Maybe Santa will bring me one............ Can I ask where you got it and how much you paid? Nice plate too by the way!

 

wow ie been wanting to see a mugen exhaust. how does it sound? i heard they were one of the quieter one. i had a 240sx with a really loud exhaust on it before i got this car, and im sick of it. i dont want my prelude sounding like a weedwacker on steroids going down the street. i just want a quiet high performance exhaust, and i hear mugen is the way to go? do you agree? real nice looking though!!

 

BLING

 

I got it from King MS. It was $1038 ($975 + shipping). As for the sound, I have to admit I don't see a lot of Ludes around here, so I really don't know what other available exhausts sound like to compare it to, so....But to me it has a kind of strong, deep throaty sound to it. In lower gears it's like I can feel it more than hear it through the chassis, and when vtec kicks in, it sounds like a mix between a howl and a roar more than that annoying buzzing sound I hear so often. It does drown out what I thought was my loud CAI, so it ain't exactly quiet. I'm going to TRY and get a vid made, maybe next weekend 'cause I think it's the last time this season that the local track (VA Motorsports Park) will be open for "fun runs" on Saturday mornings (you'll all get to see me get my head handed to me by 2 of my friend's s2000's ; maybe I'll be able to put it up soon.

The Mugen exhaust sounds incredible! I am saving for the header and exhaust, damn it's a pretty penny!

 

I've been waiting for my mugen exhaust for months now, the more I wait the better it's going to be when I get it.

 

what diameter is the piping?

 

Love your exhaust man! Does anyone know if the Mugen exhaust would be good for a turbocharged prelude? Because I really really want the Mugen exhaust but I'm saving for a Greddy Turbo Kit w/ FMIC right now.

 

mugen headers are not great for guys who drop their cars over 1.50 inches....scrap like crazy....

 

I got a chance to put up some better quality daytime pics today. Anyway, according to the Mugen 2k2 catalog, the piping is 60.5 mm, just under 2.5 inches. From what I've heard that's too small for turbo applications...

 

sexxxxxxxxxy

 

yep that`s exactly like my baby hahaah ...

 

How hard was it to install? That thing looks awesome.

 

i guess i'm the only person who thinks its ugly oh well.

 

The install took less than 20 minutes, start to finish.

To each his own. Personally, I think you're completely and hopelessly insane, but that's IMHO. Even if you hated its' looks, the quality and workmanship are tight and hell, the sound alone would sell it. By the way, what kind of exhaust do you have?

Anyway, like I said earlier, to each his own. I'm not exactly feeling the RS kit, but hey, that's just me

 

I agree Mugen probably spent a lot of time with designing the exhaust system. I love the way it sounds. I heard it on a guy's SI on H-T. I used to have a Tanabe Racing Medallion but now I have a custom magnaflow 2.5'' exhaust. I like my kit, and you like your exhaust, Thats all that Matters!

 

the exhaust is awesome but the tailights just have to go!!!

 

hehe. I have to agree, but its his car.

 

Does anybody know if a 5th Gen exhaust (Mugen) would fit a 4th gen with little to no modification? cutting and welding is not a problem as long as its not a whole lot!

Thanks,
Jonesy

 

Hey hey hey people, lay off the tailights! Those were among the parts that we salvaged off of my friend's '99 SH when he totaled it last summer. He smacked a guardrail at about 130+ mph (he claims 140+) and cracked his Lude in half, but the tailights, emblems, strut brace, etc survived. I like 'em, they're different. Illegal, but different. And besides, if I see one more pair of Altezzas, I'll retch.

 

Yeah they are differnent alright. I've seen a mustang with the same kind before. The altezza thing is old hehe.

 

I'm pretty sure 2.5" is fine for turbo, depending on how much boost your pushing, and how big your turbo is!

 

thats beautiful
