I'm afraid the test pipe will get me very noisy with the Dc cat back i remember you mentionning somewhat of a riceyer sound than that of mugens exhaust but i do wish to get a test pipe

 

well.....sometimes with speed comes sacrifice, but in this case, I'd agree with you, it will be a tad on the raspy side, but all things considered, it shouldn't be that bad, and actually if you go with a high flow cat, it probably won't be bad at all. Though I haven't had the DC cat back on my car to talk from experience. Though, one thing I can say is, dont run a Greddy Evo wtih no cat on your ITR, they sound mad raspy with no cat...

Any way, good luck what ever you decide..

Unless your exhaust is really trashed you can actually get some money for your used ITR exhaust manifold (call it a header) and cat back. It is a nice, cheap upgrade for GSR owners. Post it in the classifieds at Honda-tech.com. That is also a great place to look for a used jrsc and other items.

 

I found the solution to my problem, thanks everyone for ur advice, tips & tricks...and so on.

 

Take some of the 2000 and get yourself a light FW and nice clutch, I did and can't belive how good the car feels.

Also a set of cam gears then tune it on a dyno

Also a set of rims that are lighter and wider too.

Just a thought...

 

So what did you decide?

 

So what did you finally decide to do? Lat us know how it turns out.
