+1. i.e. tanabe/jic/stillen are the closest matching.

Last I checked, Only Honda owners, and idiots bought parts because of name brand, and not because of performance.

U obviously know nothing about the JIC exhaust for the VQ platform and your childish banter is laughable. What does one platform have to fo with the other? Absolutely nothing. Go party on some Honda forums troll.

The JIC exhaust (y pipe included) has been proven to be a power adder on G's and Z's and the y pipe is one of the most free flowing designs out there in addition to having adjustable flex sections.

I'm mocking you, and everyone else who buys Garbage based on Name alone. JIC is supposedly engineered for a specific car, but on the S2000, it looks like a bunch of welded pipes ending up losing power.

I'm sure you New exhaust looks nice, but you will never be under your car enough to "appreciate the craftsmanship" of it. If you buy things to show off, you get no respect from me.

Yea, the moving of the evap canister has me worried looking towards install--that and the price are the only negatives of this exhaust...I'll be sure to let you know what (if anything) myself or my trusted tech can come up with when it arrives.

If it's not working it's because it's hooked up wrong, or there is something else throwing a code. It's a piece of pipe, there isn't much that can go wrong, if it's connected correctly! Do you have all the parts I shipped out originally? You said you found the pics, make sure it's hooked up EXACTLY the same. Did you check for leaks? Did you seal all fittings with teflon tape (threaded) or hot glue (push-ons)? Each hose HAS to be connected just like it was on the OEM cannister, to the same solenoid, or it will throw a code after a couple of start-stop cycles. Check out the FSM if you don't know how it's suppose to work. For over a year and about 2k miles on my 35th, it only threw a code twice.
