Install time on JUNB.L exhaust 5-10 mins. It might take longer to get your stock cat-back off.

Well, I meant the whole evolution. Obviously I had to take the stock one off before I put the new one on.

heres the thing that i dont like about both Exhuast, well 3 acutally.

Jun BL is a 3 in they claim, but it necks from a 3in to a 2.5 in adpt to the stock cat.
+ Clamps are nice touch, very easy to install, however im a skeptic when i comes to the quality on the seal. I Sense exhuast leak!

Hks Carbon Ti 2.75 piping is mint, Looks nasty sounds Great, 1st class product and not tooo loud.

Hks/RNR Carbon Ti. Full 3in piping. Passes Als Beer can test. Quality of down pipe and cat delete or Amazing. BUT cat back bends are not to great, i have heard some serious Issues with these exhuast,however i am currently sporting on on my car If i could do it again, I would have went All Megan im convinced that for the money 350 shipped!!!! that you cant go wrong, still has burnt tip. For quality, I would have went BR. For Wieght i would have went with Greddy Ti Nastyyy Exhuast LOUD as ever though!

spooldyou, I have the jun bl and there is no taper what so ever. As far as leaks, Have you seen how a v-band clamp works? It seals around a 1/8 '' bead on the exhaust. So it is not a slip fit, I can assure you no leaks. Hey if you would ever like to see it I am in Mass too and would'nt mind showing you, another awesome thing about this exhaus on or off in 10 mins.

Great that it comes off that easy, But aside from making install easier for the do it yourselfer. there is really no point.

As far as i knew when EVO dave was selling them. he said something about it necking down, BUT i could be mistaken. So!


And as far as the clamps go, RNR uses a slip clamp. That terrible to work with.

Id say get the RNR turbo back with Hks Carbon TI muffler. Looks amazing, and sounds even better.

well, its still 50/50 even with this post. I guess I can't go wrong with either cat-backs. Does anyone know what is the weight difference between the two catbacks?

Okay, I have my JUN BL cat back for about 5-6 mos now. I got the exhaust when it was first introduced to this forum. It fits perfect on my EVO IX. Once you get this exhaust, you will appreciate the quality and the sound of it. No regrets~~

However, if you are planning to upgrade your exahust system to full turbo back, make sure you get the adapter or consider other brands.
