If your worrying about it looking saggy, even the Silent HKS Hi Power sag the same way and that exhaust cost 120,000 yen roughly 1200 USD. Saggy fart cans seems to be the new JDM style over there.

Got mine on and so far so good! The non-fouler trick didn't work for me but I will be purchasing tuning hardware/software to disable the code. I do like the sound, not too loud and annoying.

How's the catback affecting the cat's fouler plug? I though the exhaust affects only what comes out after the cat.

Oh yeah I failed to mention...........I have a AMS Test Pipe.

And still sounds good, not loud and annoying like the Honda Civic sedan that is in my apartment complex, that loves riding around there making sure everyone here's his exhaust 3 states away.

LOL, now you know you have a true ricer living by you. I swear there should be only 3 types of cars allowed to have an loud and obnoxious exhaust.
1. Supercars
2. Muscle cars
3. Turbo charged cars.

Did you try getting that I think it was Touge's anti-fouler fitting to get rid of the CEL caused by the Test pipe.

LOL, I agree!

No I went with that Spark Plug Non-Fouler (http://www.autozone.com/az/cds/en_us...rInfoPages.htm) from Autozone to get rid of the CEL. Even put 2 in and still threw CEL.

Just put the exhaust on today and let me say wow what a difference... the sound is absolutely everything you would want it to be even with only a cat back.

Very deep growl with not much drone at high rpm at all... overall very good system the only thing i dont like is the saggy cans... they really do hang low.

I will upload some pics and sound clips tomorrow.
