from the looks from the back, Does the exhaust run under the gas tank, could we see a better pic of the area underneath the car. Oherwise it looks great and is something different that what everyone else has.

the sound of the RSR with the silencer is comparable to ES Oval with short resonator, without silencer it was rather loud in VTEC mode, when crusining it was fine, longest the silencer was kept on

the Kakimoto Fullmega N1 hyper2000, is extremely quiet a tad louder then a stock muffler more along the lines of Apex World Sport WS, it has nice deep sound but extremely quiet at the same time, without the silencer it sounds like a ES Oval and RSR with silencer (which is actually fairly quiet)

as far as clearance, I drove with the RSR for over a year and half, it has three scrapes and a tiny dent, I carried numerous things, such as trannies (2 b-series) one d-series, hoods, 8 wheels/tires, motors and much more in the car, meaning it was lower then what's shown on the pic (it has done over 45k km and 4 motors later
it has also been driven throught Canadian winters during the time, many times frozen and all cover with ice....

final words:
- RSR was good and one of a kind, made power 5-10whp on all motors, vs other aftermarket setups, but it was not SS nor it was very quiet

-Kakimoto, is only 4 days old so not much to comment on power gains, but the low down is; extremely quiet, good cleance, top notch work and SS, bottom end is superb the top end has suffered, without silencer its a good power but nowhere near the RSR without (but dyno can only tell)



to oreder look for Boom Plus Toys in BC (ask for Morris) for discounts look for Mat (aka: mafay2) he can hook you up, btw. the service was excellent and it took only 2 days to get my exhaust from B.C. to ON (5k km across Canada)

Nice pictures!! Good that you enjoy it, but why selling it so fast? Too quiet or you really want something that not run under the gas tank?

I have the apex n1 and its way too low. That exhaust seems to be about the same. You must have extreemly nice roads where you live or something. Anyway best of luck with it.

That's a whopping big can!

j/k man. Does the exhaust mount sideways (or should I say at an angle) already, or did you have to rdjust it somehow?
