Buddy Club 2 Exhaust???
I have been gaining some little interest in this exhaust due to good reviews from here and there. Im just wondering if any of you have had any experience with this exhaust? Is it too noisy like some people say, are there any hp gains from it. If any of you have any info on this exhaust could you throw it my way.
Here is a link to password jdm who sells them:

Call me pragmatic. Call me a cheap bastard. But for that money I would probably just get a dynomax exhaust and have it built up. With a NA car with an engine our size you are not going to get a major hp gain from a cat back. But if you like the bling, it looks pretty. Don't know about its performance. I have an Apexi on my car but it came with it. It does sound real good but lots of the good sound is really coming from under the hood.

thats a straight through pipping design. On N/A, that exhuast eactually does wonders. It sounds good but yes...it is vary...vary...vary LOUD. If you have noise control in your neighborhood don't get it.

I love these. Very loud! They have no real muffler, it's pretty much tubing with 1 very small resonator

Im not getting it because its loud. Im getting it because im tired of seeing riced out exhausts and hearing people talk about them. I actually like the looks of this exhaust and have heard good things about it.

I like how mine's routed.

When i had a canister along the underside in the middle, i had all kinds of clearance problems. With this, i haven't had one. That does look real loud. Too bad it comes out the wrong side and you'll have an ugly looking, empty bumper cutout.

I have 4 friends with Spec II and one friend with a Spec I, they're all very loud even with the silencer... but oh my, how sweet they sound at 8000 rpm on the back straightaway.

With silencer installed:
Kevin
Tony (current Jtuned feature car)
Gil
Greg (BC spec I)

It sure beats losing exhaust velocity to unnecessary bends.
Function over fashion.
EDIT.
Yes, we are currently redesigning the rear section of the car, in the name of improving the aerodynamics of the undercar freestream. This picture is from when I first met him. Those mud guards and rear lips are HORRIBLE for aerodynamic function, but hopefully we'll solve that with our new setup.

depending on where you live, you won't pass inspection (it's a competition only) or you'll end up with a fix-it ticket.

Why's he getting rid of the spoiler and front lip? I loved those
I think they're aerodynamic? Heh

I hear from people that buy those end up selling em because its uncomfortably loud. Im just saying that i'd rather get like a Tanabe or something.
I dont think it looks very bling at all. That bitch doesnt even have a muffler!
