Sounds soo good. I like the unsilenced look on the car better though. Thanks for taking the footages. Aj-racing.com all the way.

not quite what i meant, if i were to get this exhaust, i'd run it with the silencer on but i'd assume there would be a good deal more back pressure and a loss of higher end

Nope. Low end will be better from 1000-3000 ranges but the rest sucks.

My buddy with an RSX-S has the comptech. It sounds good but I think its too quiet. It could pass for a stock "sport" exhaust. At the top end it quiets down, its weird. I hear the 2.5 piping makes some good power tho.

Can we get some video of this Buddy Club Racing Spec III exhaust in action - from inside the car at WOT? What kind of HP gains are expected?

Am I seeing a British Columbia license plate on that silver DC5? Is that a genuine Type R or the body, badges, and wheels? I am not sure but I believe there is no Acura in Canada, right? If they sell real Type Rs in Canada I will have to get one and bring it down here.

That is actually a RSX-S with DC5-R front/rear lip, side skirts, rear spoiler, 17" R wheels, etc...
Love the RE01's...

For Canadian pricing, contact A&J Racing at 604.279.0329

It seems a lot of people are not satisfied with the sound. While much of that is subjective preference, I should say that compressing the video/sound into such a small file size does erode the sound quality. In real life, the Spec III has a very deep tone to it, it's not raspy at all, which some people have said after listening to the clip.

Man, that exhaust sounds really nice. I got the skunk2 which kind of sounds like it. Nice clean look with a deep tone to it.
