Thanks man! I only do it when I know I’ll be spending a lot of time under the car. Someone on one of my older videos commentednted saying she found her husband pinned under the car when she got home. I still can’t seem to shake off that fear so it’s better to be safe.
Great video! I’m looking for an oem plus dual exit exhaust. This one seems to fit the bill. Now that you’ve had it a while and it’s broken in. Would you recommend this exhaust? Did you add a test pipe and or cold air intake?
Thanks! Yes, I’m still happy with the exhaust. Sounds good every time you get on it. No test pipe but I did add a AFE Takeda Intake which opened it up a bit!
Great video. I just ordered this for my AP1. You sealed it for me towards the end! Just a little advice: You may want to blur out your speedometer. It doesn't add to the video and it only exposes you to Karens.
Yeah, it took a lot of adjustments but it’s as even as it’s gonna get. I had to use some aftermarket exhaust hangers in combination of the stock ones. S2000 Exhaust Hangers: amzn.to/3WtGu1W
@@DJJASProductions thank you! I had just the stock exhaust before this. My top choice was the Fujitsubo Legalis R but it was a bit out of my price range.
How is the decel resonance on this? I have an HKS dual and it’s so loud on decel it vibrates my brain. Looking to get rid of that. Drone is pretty livable?
It got a little louder as I predicted. The drone is there but it’s definitely livable. I looked at the HKS too but reading about how loud it was deterred me from getting it. Still happy with my choice.
I used the 5000tlx to lift the s2000 in this video but I’m going to say no since I found out I was lifting it not at the lift points. The 5000tlx is too long. It works if you remove the back wheels and jack up the rear before lifting with the quick jacks. It’s a hassle though.
@@ronfromportland thanks for the quick reply! I'm having that exact same issue since I was trying to buy a quickjack to accommodate both my s2000 and model 3. In retrospect, I probably should have gone with the 5000TL and get extension frames.
Yeah, I had to use different exhaust hangers. It took a while to adjust and it’s not perfect but it looks better than how it was right after installing amzn.to/3TLFJRg
@@ronfromportlandtwo more questions. Would you have chosen the Fujitsubo exhaust over this one? If so why? I quite like the exhaust note on the revel! Did you ever get the exhaust pipes to hang evenly?
@@frorider007 yes, only because it seems quieter than the Revel. I can’t confirm though since I haven’t heard it in person. Fujitsubo was always my first choice. The price difference between the two was pretty significant. The exhaust tips are pretty even now. I had to use some aftermarket exhaust hangers in addition to the OEM hangers to get them even. Took a few hours but it was worth it. amzn.to/3S2mbXf
@@ronfromportland Hey bud, I purchased a Revel Medallion exhaust for my Lexus GS350 (I know it's a different cat, different engine). I haven't driven it much yet, but I've noticed that at low RPMs (under 2200) there is some annoying drone. Did you ever experience that? Did the sound change in any way after the so called break in period ?
Bro i literally have the same issue as you, installed mine like 1 week ago, my left muffler is still sitting lower than my right even after buying a shorter aftermarket exhaust hanger, what did you do to fix it?
I had to replace all hangers and spent a lot of time re-adjusting. So far it’s good enough. It still shifts a little when it gets hot but it goes back into place.
nice! I love this exhaust as well I was going to buy a greddy for my s2k but someone put a tanabe medallion on offersup for almost half the price of a brand new one and barely used so I went bought them and they were perfect!🥰🤍
Sounds great!!! Love that it’s not overly loud in the car top up or down.
Thanks! This is exactly the sound I was going for!
Damn it sounds good as hell! And that cold start was on point too!

The only video to actually do some drive by type videos of the exhaust. Hood to hear it woth the engine warmed up too. Nice job 👍🏻
Thanks a bunch! 🙏
Looks nice and it's not obnoxious sounding.
Thanks man. This is what I was going for!
Awesome video as always!
Thanks man!
Very smart for using jack stands as a fail safe!

Thanks man, you’ll love it! Yeah, I always worry about the speedometer being exposed. Luckily I didn’t go over 40 😃
did you ever fix the left side to be even with right?? I had same issue with mine 4 years ago

Sounds great! What exhaust did you have before? Considering this one, LHT, or the Ballade dual.
@@DJJASProductions thank you! I had just the stock exhaust before this. My top choice was the Fujitsubo Legalis R but it was a bit out of my price range.
@@ronfromportland Gotcha! Was there any others were you even looking into?
@@DJJASProductions aside from the Fujitsubo, I also looked at HKS and Skunk2 but they seemed too loud for my preference.

Does your 5000tlx work on the s2000?

@@Winrichly ah yeah, so you feel my pain. I even tried lifting the s2000 sideways (parallel to the f/r) and it wouldn’t lift properly so I gave up!
Were you able to adjust the tips? If so, how?
Yeah, I had to use different exhaust hangers. It took a while to adjust and it’s not perfect but it looks better than how it was right after installing amzn.to/3TLFJRg
What mods other than this exhaust did you make to your car?
I'm in the same boat want something slightly louder than oem.
Completely stock. I don’t remember if I did the intake mod with the K&N filter in this video but it didn’t really impact the sound.

I have the same problem with my 2005 s2000
I got them to where they’re “good enough”. I spent a bunch of time adjusting them using these a.co/d/eh2XTOv

Are you close to Campbell University. I close to it we should link up sometime.
That looks to be in NC. I’m all the way in Portland, OR 😅

It’s so nice on the ears!
OEM sounds better
