I did not realize this thread was still active. I have sold my EVO about half a year ago and I definitely miss her.
Quiet, quiet, quiet. I am very picky about having a loud exhaust. The first exhaust I got for my Evo was the AVO (everyone said it was very quiet) and it had a very deep base sound. I sold that after two days because I could not stand it. The Fujitsubo Legalis-R sounds very similiar to the stock exhaust but loud enough under throttle to know it is not stock. I would buy this exhaust again if I were to get an Evo again.
I was running the JDM MR metal diverter valve. I got the pipe flanged for the stock diverter valve.
Unfortunetely, I never got a chance to run them on the track but on the street, they were very quiet. I would definitely recommend them.

Here is my basic summary of mods that I got last year but never posted any pics up. I am going to do a write up on the Fujitsubo Legalis-R exhaust pretty soon and hopefully get some video/sound clips in. To me, an exhaust is quiet if you are just cruising around the city/downshifting/accelerating normally from a stop and the engine and drivetrain noise is louder than the exhaust. The Legalis-R passes all of the above.

Thank you. I am currently driving an NSX.
My EVO was dropped on Works springs, which lowered roughly 1.5" if I recall correctly. You will need to roll/shave the rear fender for this particular offset wheel to fit without rubbing.
