Default Just installed RS*R ExMag street... (Update: Recordings)

Took about an hour to put in... it's pretty straight forward. It looks like the stock system, just with ceramic coated, larger piping. Sounds very nice and smooth, just a low hum that's barely audible at cruising speed. I do a lot of driving (hour commute, etc...) so quiet is just what I wanted. Seems to add some responsiveness to the midrange, hard to tell what it did up top. It's on my 02 Civic EX, but I'm sure enough of it carries over that this could be of some interest to you guys. If it does something to a D17, it's gotta do something more with a K20 on the other end. I'm pretty happy with it.
Couple pics... it got dark by the time I got it in. I'll try for some better ones tomorrow.

Ok... here's a few pics from far back...






And now what you've been waiting for... sounds...
(if you are on 56K, you will meet your doom)

Idling

Revving in the driveway - Hanging camera out window... enjoy looking at the Bimmer

Offramp fun

The WOT 0-80 Dash - Yes... I bogged the **** out of it.

Another full blast run

I was trying to drive and hold the record button at the same time... so enjoy looking at my knee.

I don't know if I'm number 1... but I've gotta be one of a few. This thing was royal pain to find. Only found it at 3 stores.

I'm surprised... its actually getting quieter as it runs out the junk. It still smells a little bit from what ever is inside there, but it's been getting quieter as it "breaks in". I'm a bit surprised... I though it would get a little louder. Oh well... even quieter is better yet.
