Did you notice any difference in low end power with the larger piping? A friend of mine had the Apex'i GT Spec (goes from 3in-3.75in) on his 240 and i noticed a little loss on the bottom end due to the reduced back pressure, but he would pick up on the top end.

sound clip? I still don't know what exhaust I want- there are enough silly hondas around that sound like weed-eaters that I don't even want to sound anything like them- The stock rear spoiler is almost as big as some I have seen but if I sounded like any of them I would shoot myself in the kneecap

I couldn't tell you honestly if I lost any low end power with the ETS 3.5" Exhaust because I put the ETS 57 trim kit on at the SAME time and a BUNCH of other ETS QUALITY products.. but my torque feels great with that mid-sized turbo

Thanks for the info! I was wanting to get the 3.5 in. ETS exhaust to replace my Buschur racing TBE. Do you have pics of the exhaust on the car? Also theres a sound clip of the exhaust on ETS's website, but id also like to hear more of it.

Awesome looking setup!!
How is the ground clearance with this ETS system? If possible, can you get pictures the following:
Rear shot of the car
Side shot of the car ( to see how low it hangs)
Im sure other were curious of these as well.
Also, would this be easy to mod to fit the JDM rear?
Soud clip!!
congrats on the exhaust.

Anyone have pics of the ETS exhaust with a JDM bumper. Not a fan of the can type mufflers but Ive heard the clips and this exhaust sounds sick. All I know is I need an exhaust quick haha

I am gonna go home now that I am out of class and take some pics of it so everyone can see and maybe take an idle vid too. The clearance is like stock. I have never ever scraped and I have coilovers too and before them I had Tein springs on stock struts, unfortunately, and never scraped then either. Hope that answers clearance issues?

I'll get pictures soon as well.. and in the next week I'm going to be getting a JDM rear bumper... so I will also have pictures of it when I get that.. and let you know what I had to do in order to get it to look "right" on the car.
I'm not sure if I can get any videos because I don't have a camera.. but I will try my best ( :
There is no problems with it scraping .. it fits really good underneath the car too!

We have two versions of all of our exhaust systems with one for the USDM rear and the other for the JDM rear bumper. Just specify when ordering and it will sit flush regardless of which bumper you have on your EVO

I have heard the 3.5" system on a stroker motor here in town I couldnt believe how loud a deep it was. It was a beautifull sound and perhaps a little too loud but perfect and deep. I should have bought that car.

I just took video of mine and it sounds like trash cause of the camera, but here are some pics of it. I bought mine from an evo that had it on a 35R kit and so mine doesnt sit exactly how it should cause its a catback and not a DP back. I also had to make a test pipe for it , but I love the aggressive angle and dont mind occasional carbon on my bumper. I have BR dp that was on that car when i bought it and a test pipe, both 3". This exhaust will eventually become a 3.5" TBE, but for now its a catback and I love it.
