Lightbulb Rate Your Exhaust

PLEASE - ONLY RATE THE EXHAUST IF YOU HAVE FIRST HAND EXPERIENCE WITH IT. Please help keep this thread the "go to" place for the important exhaust information and post questions elsewhere.

To rate the exhaust, reply to this thread, you can leave a category blank if you have no opinion. Include any comments you would like to make. If you have no comments and just want to silently rate your exhaust you can PM me at the bottom of this post or e-mail me: justin_ploof@yahoo.com

Fit 1 to 5: How well does it fit the car without cutting, making new hangers, etc. 1=fit like hell, all the way to, 5=fit tighter than stock without rattle.

Power 1 to 5: 1=less power than stock, 2=about the same as stock, 3=some gains, 4=very noticeable, 5=Feels like its been boosted

Loudness 1 to 5: Volume 1= Quieter than stock to 5= Loud, wakes the neighbors when you get on it.

After the name is the material: SS= Stainless Steel, PS= Stainless can only, AS= Aluminized Steel and then the pipe/tip diameter.

I saw this done on another websites forum and it seemed to work really well. I want this to be available to help newcomers, like myself, so they dont have to go digging through old threads one by one. It's really nice and effecient if it all works out. Oh and if a moderator could please make this a sticky temporarily so I could get as much feed back as possible, that would be awesome. Thanks to everyone that participates!

i've noticed that alot of people get gains off of n1 duals and nur spec's,rs-r's and all that .but i also noticed that the piping is meant for turbo (80mm instead of 60mm).and i was wondering if the 80mm piping still gives as much gains as the hks hi power (60mm) on an NA s13

Well i was just at the RS-R Sponsored Team at the Houston formula D show, and i asked them about the RS-R GT2 (80mm)and i was told i would loose some low end but gain it in the high end on the ka24de. They were running a carbon fibered s2k for the drift competition. ^_^

that i'm not sure, they only mention some low end lost, i'm considering getting the rs-r gt2 since a friend has a blitz nur spec on his 240sx fastback.

i've hear the nur spec it depends on which car it's on
i heard it on an rb20 powered 240 and it was kinda loud but then i heard it's not all that loud so im kinda confused too
