Yea it is supposed to be one of the quieter exhausts for the 240.

I had to take it to a shop cuz all the bolts were literally like fused to the flanges of the piping so I had no way of getting it off with the hand tools that I had. Most likely I will have it tomorrow and I will take pics.

I got it from www.revhighonline.com and I payed $382 + shipping.

I recommend getting it from www.optionimports.com however.

It took RevHigh 13 days just to ship the damn thing and it was in stock.

And Jynx, I would have gone for the 25th Anniversary Edition but I didn't want to pay like $200 or so more. It looks badass when its just sitting in my kitchen lol. I can't wait to see how it looks/sounds on the car.

I got the 65mm. The 85mm is a little more than 3.25in which is IMO way too big for a stock NA motor. I don't plan on going turbo any time soon due to money constraints, so this was the best choice for me.

Looks good man! Can't wait for the review.

One question though. Any idea why the S13 exhaust is so much more than s14?

The bolts on my stock exhaust were like fused to the flanges. There was no way I was gonna get it off with the tools I had. I had to take it to the shop.

I ended up having to torch the bolts in order to get them off. If I had tried to get them off with just a tool they would probably have broken off leaving me with a useless cat. It sounds awesome, almost silent when idling although it has a nice little rumble, and when you romp it, it sounds amazing. No fart can noises, just pure low growl. It really isn't even that loud but it sounds beautiful.


I will have installed pics and vids tomorrow (most likely).

I really don't know why the S13 version is so much more.

Maybe because it isn't as popular?? I dunno.
