Test pipes

[medusa]

I just installed the comptech test pipes on my car. I wanted to achieve a louder sound but it really hasn't changed. I am currently running a Rudora exhaust (which is the same as the one on that black nsx with the works wheels on the sos site) and what I have noticed especially when in vtec it just pulls you back into your seat.

Now the last step of the equation (for now) is to get some headers.
Has anyone installed headers themselves?
I've researched the gain (or lack of gain) with the headers and was also wondering which seems to be better? dc? comptech?
Anyone running Fujitsubo?
thanks

I think this is more of a an imagination than an actual feeling. There are no significant gains from this mod, ecexpt for a better sound and maybe 5hp. I have found that anything less than a 30hp gain is not noticeable. What you are probably feeling is a more responsive throttle.

But hey, if your car feels faster, the mod obviously has worked foryou.

I can't believe it isnt louder.Maybe from inside the car you don't apreciate it,have a friend drive by you.

I recommend the Comptech headers. Check out the brief FAQ here:
