I had a 70R-EM dual. Sold that last year.

Just picked up a single exit version this year. Have yet to install. I'll probably install it when I take it out of storage.

If you're just looking for more noise, the UK mod is cheap AF. I was gonna do it myself to my stock exhaust. But then I had a sandwich instead.

Not really concerned about gaining power. I get a pair of magnaflow mufflers installed for much less than 700

If I were to buy a system I'd go with milltek but why spend 1k+ for sound?

I'm shocked you didn't just do the UK mod, Dennis...$10 piece of pipe and it sounded great. If curiosity hadn't gotten the best of me...

Is there a distinct difference between your milltek and the UK mod?

Don't do it bro, that's not an OEM move

The quality and distinctness of sound is different from exhaust to exhaust. Quality of fitment and looks are also factors. Give your design a shot. You may like it. I'm pretty anus about that stuff so maybe I'm over thinking it.

I would UK mod first, though.

The UK mod is a little louder but I think it lacks the deep sound I am going for. Going to take measurements of the OEM mufflers when I get home and see how it compares to the magnaflows I got for the TL

Welp just ordered 2 sets of mufflers. I'll let my exhaust guy choose which one is best to use.

But a penguin with sensitive skin would be smart enough to buy anything but a convertible

We're a very smart species

At first I was like "man, those milltek exhaust tips likely will look fugly on the s2000..." at first I thought they were just this awkward shape that didn't compliment the rear of the s2000.

but seeing them installed now... daaaaaaaamn... they look like oem, but larger diameter. Loving it!!

I didn't wanna tint my S2000 because *IMO* it looks a little funny.

But 35% is a waste. My sedan came with 35%. People can still see up in my window when I'm playing my Gamecube Nintendo and dialing (281)330-8004.

M'lady's wagon is at 15%. This is what I like, bro. Way better.

^ Agree. Also, the tint does nothing when the top is down.
