I think I got these from either Japanparts or Perfect run, was a long time ago. But I remember they were pretty cheap, under $400

JUN Instruction Manual

HKS Racing Single exit


Picked up the car this morning. Car definitely loves being in the higher RPM range. Power doesn't taper off as it used to in the higher revs. The single exit is LOUD

I put the HKS Spec-L back in as I couldn't stand the drone. I've since ordered a silencer for that, and longer exhaust hangars as the flange touches the HKS Kansai rear subframe bar.

I put back the RB rear as I don't have any track days for the next month of two or three :/
