This one will be located in the tunnel. This piece weighs approx 5 lbs.



This one will be located along side the gas tank as in the stock system. This piece weighs approx 3 lbs.



And together

 

Looks good. I'm anxious to see how the new system looks and performs.

 

For those of us not familiar with your old resonators, do you have any comparison pics? Also you mentioned weight - how much of a weight difference is there.

Also, out of curiousity why the design change. Your old system appeared to perform quite well, is the new system going to be better?

 

I used Magnaflow resonators, usually a 22" long one, like in the picture.



That resonator weighs 10-12 lbs

The new system will be bolt on. The old 2-1/2" system supported 230+ whp. I expect at least the same out of this. But I want to build the lightest and quietest system with out compromising performance. We should know shortly.

 

Are you still going to be using the same muffler?

 

I know the Manaflow resonators were aluminized.

Those new resonators look like they're stainless. Are they?

 

Capital.

I can't wait to get one.

 

Great stuff and it's going to be bolt-on too

Can't wait to see pics of the final product.

 

Being bolt-on open more possibilities for purchasing. More user friendly and people don't have to nescessarily got to the shop for welding and installing.

Good move!

 

is that resonator will fit mugen twin loop?

 

How soon do you expect to offer the bolt on kit? And, will the sounds be nice and quiet like your previous model?

Thanks,


Mike

 

I believe that he is looking for something that bolts up to Si twin loop, even though i told him it won't work.

 

Great, can't wait to see the new kit!

Thanks,
Victor

 

man... i gotta see this... i m not a big fan of that magnaflow muffler tho... i hope he uses a "cooler" looking muffler...

 

I notice that the shape of those resonators looks a little different; flat on one side and tapered on the other. Is that a better design for flow effeciency? Or is it that all resonators are that shape and I never noticed it

 

If you care about what your exhaust looks like, the SMSP isn't for you.

While it is a high quality system, it maintains a stealthy, stock-like appearance.

 

is the bolt-on only offered for ITR's or are there different applications? Im interested in one made for a EK coupe w/ b18c-r motor.

 

does the muffler come painted flat black? if so

 

I painted mine flat black.... to SMSP products!!

 

Which, in addition to its quietness, is exactly why I want one.

 

no.. i got a mugen twin loop for "ITR" and the resonator is little damaged.

 

Hey is this is my firts post, i am glad to be a member of honda-tech. I am interest on where i can buy the SMSP test pipe for my R. I have a Mugen twip loop and also a mugen header. Thanks

P.D. to SMSP products

 

welcome... IM SMSP for details

 

He can't - IM's are disabled for n00bs.

Just email Dave directly.
