Sounds awesome on my 02 base with everything else stock. Don't let the youtube videos fool you, it sounds better than that, very deep and tame with the catalytic converter on especially. The fit hugs the bumper perfectly, its got a decent upwards angle and hella side angle, and the silencer insert even looks better than most. The only flaw though that cost it one star is because of the cool huge tip and upwards angle, a decent amount of rain water will get inside the muffler when parked and HKS hasn't put any kind of drainage for that, so you'd either have to cover the tip with something, or maybe drill a little hole for drainage. Also, although the silencer itself looks nice, the two bolts on the side to hold it look a little funny.

Just installed this exhaust system today and I love the way it sounds with or without the silencer (currently keeping it off). Fast shipping from Kseries

I had a different exhaust on before, once I put this on it sounds amazing I absolutely love this exhaust. you can feel some power gains too! Highly recommend best bang for the buck

i bought this product for my 02 base rsx and have no regrets. sounds amazing, nice deep tone and not annoying.

I have DC Sports race header, and was worried about this exhaust being too loud. It has a very low tone while idling and driving normally, but lets everyone know how awesome it is when you step on it. It's also very sexy with it being angled out the back. Very satisfied! On a side note, I've seen people with pictures of the exhaust burning their bumper, but I have a 2002 and it seems to give plenty of clearance.
