I love the sound of ur exhaust system can you inbox me this video brother

[@chaychay7734]

dude this is a perfect video. u have the camera and the mic in the perfect place you can hear the car like your really there. keep up the nice work.

[@rcysiFg2]

Thanks, Appreciate that! I will for sure got lots more coming!

Your an idiot sounds like shit can’t hear the real quality

[@nbssms]

Best k20 video on KZbin that worth watching..repeatedly

[@rcysiFg2]

Thanks 👊🙏

[@josephbruno2356]

Thanks for the sound clips. Wasn’t sure which 3 inch exhaust to go with. Either K tuned or Full race. Looks like Full Race.... ftw!!!

[@rcysiFg2]

No problem! Ya it's a great exhaust, highly recommend it.

[@9nety1till]

Freaking awesome 👏🏽. I have Skunk2 CAÍ + Full Race on my FA5. I already have the skunk2 headers just waiting to be installed next month, since I’m replacing my clutch first

[@rcysiFg2]

Nice! Ya it's a great set up.

[@jxnguyen]

Thoughts before and after you installed the headers with the CAI and Full Race catback?

[@TheJMedia]

Sounds great! I have the skunk2 headers and will be installing the full race exhaust tomorrow. Can't wait

[@rcysiFg2]

Nice! Ya it's a great combination

@@rcysiFg2 Thank you! Excited to see how it sounds

[@billybadtouchpirate1264]

I love my full race exhaust. Bought the car with it and the k & n typhoon already installed.

sick, getting an 8th gen Si soon and now i know which exhaust im getting ! great video 👍

I'm rocking thermal r&d 3 inch same company that manufactures full race exhaust best investment I've ever did.

[@rcysiFg2]

Nice! Ya a nice exhaust is always worth the money imo.

[@tylerjones9600]

Sounds lovely. Been trying to figure out what header I want to put on my fg2 with full race exhaust. I think I'm convinced with the skunk2

[@rcysiFg2]

Thanks. Ya it's a great combo

[@BonzaiYT]

I think I found the setup I wanna go for. My old si had sk2 headers with sk2 catback it’s just wayyyy to loud literally just no point of having a civic that loud. The full race exhaust just gives it that perfect tone I love it. I’m super indecisive I wanna go with the full race but I’m thinking on the q300 too

[@Dougfunny37]

Okay you’ve convinced me. I’ll be going with the same That’s the EXACT sound I’ve been looking for

[@rcysiFg2]

😎 it's a good combo

[@yerizone6059]

rcysiFg2 I have a automatic Honda Civic 06 4doors with air intake. Can I get it to sound like yours if I get the same exhaust? Your exhaust sounds nice

[@Dougfunny37]

@@yerizone6059 sort of. It will have a similar sound but a lot of the brappppp you hear is shift range used for a manual transmission. It allows you to boost Rpm between each shift giving it that nice sound at around 5k rpm. In an automatic you just won’t have as much control and the speed upgrade won’t be quite as much of a jump. But it will still sound awesome!!

[@yerizone6059]

@@Dougfunny37 thanks for your replay. Do you recommend it for my car? I’m looking for a nice sound

[@rcysiFg2]

@@yerizone6059 like stevo said. You may get a similar sound. But also I have a skunk2 header in this video, which changes the sound quite a bit. and you have a different motor as well. K series has a specific sound, a bit different from an r18. But if you go with full race and header you may get somewhat of a similar sound.

Sounds awesome 👍👍👌👌

rcysiFg2 it hits rpm limiter on 4th gear about 235km/h...🤣🤣

Yes I do on my channel**.

Can I run a full race exhaust on my n/a fa5 or do I have to have flashpro to run a full race exhaust? Please let me know.

[@rcysiFg2]

Sorry for the late response!! But No you don't have to have fp for an exhaust.

[@cristiansblackfg2656]

Mannnnnn. I’m about to sell my skunk2 and get a full race 😂. The skunk2 is tooooooo raspy at times!

[@rcysiFg2]

Ya it's alittle more raspy. And the full race is loud enough for me lol and the skunk 2 is much louder, still a nice exhaust tho.

[@vonstrong92]

Skunk2 makes u shit your pants😂

Does any of you guys happen to no a good exhaust or cat back for a 8th gen sedan 2.4cant find nothing

[@ijpunzalan]

Did you ever dyno this specific setup when you were still tunes by e-Tunez?

[@rcysiFg2]

I didn't. Definitely somewhere around 220-225whp I'm sure.

[@MsDejavue]

When you installed the j35 with the p2r spacer, did you had to get it tuned? I have the exact same set up with a basemap calibration, but my j35 fluctuate up to 3k.

[@rcysiFg2]

You don't have to have the tune adjusted for it no, may run a TAD leaner. Probobly need to do the relearn procedure to stop the fluctuation

[@MsDejavue]

@@rcysiFg2 I'll go check that out! Thank you!

[@henrymarocchi7844]

Do you need a cat to pass inspection in your state? Is there any way to run a test pipe with alpha header + full race exhast? I'm just scared of getting pulled over and not having a cat. I have good inspection so that's not an issue but I want to be able to easily put a cat in for the future. Sorry any information you can share about this would help me a lot.

[@rcysiFg2]

No I don't. Ya I would think so. If not I'm sure an exhaust shop could fab you up a midpipe with a cat in it.

[@henrymarocchi7844]

@@rcysiFg2 thanks for the reply. I'll call around and see the possibilities. I know k series makes headers with a test pipe but I don't think they are as good as the alpha. I may settle and do that because that'd be the easiest I think.

[@rcysiFg2]

@@henrymarocchi7844 well the full race connects to the alpha header with a midpipe so you could definitely do something.

[@ianburton4795]

I just bought my fa5 this weekend (08 w/102k) I'm looking at this exhaust. Did you had to buy an 2.5" to 3" reducer?

[@rcysiFg2]

No. I have a skunk 2 header so it's 3in to 3in. But if you're gonna put it on a stock header full race will give you the option for a mid pipe to fit a stock or aftermarket header.

[@ianburton4795]

@@rcysiFg2 thanks for the info

[@uwkcal]

How did u go about the headers fitment? Rear post mount is needed and what else?

[@rcysiFg2]

Was pretty straight forward easy install. Ya replace the rear lowet mount with a solid one or the header will hit the firewall when shifting hard.

[@uwkcal]

@@rcysiFg2 so no spacers needed? Or washers? Im thinking about a hasport mount kit tbh worth the upgrade?

[@rcysiFg2]

@@uwkcal Ya, thats what I run Is a hasport rear mount. Nope, header fit on perfectly. only thing I did was replace the header gasket on the head, and got a s2000 donut gasket for the downpipe.

i plan on switching from skunk2 to the full race. I hate hate hate the skunk2 drone and being so loud.

[@markrubio747]

do u need hondata after installing skunk 2 header with full race catback?

[@rcysiFg2]

No. You don't have to have it for just H/E. Tbo tho for the price of the skunk2 header and Full race exhaust. Your money would be better spent on a good 3.5"CAI and flashpro, IF overall power is the goal.

[@yungcesarpaterson6529]

@ Mark Rubio Dude probably lost power. N/a engines need some back pressure. Yes you need hondata if you want to make power. If you just want to make a lotta noise don’t get a tune. Also you’re air fuel ratios would be f’d. And engine will run like crap.

[@ben-7403]

With both header and exhaust you'll need Flashpro. You can get by without Flashpro with just a catback but it isn't ideal. Just good for sound. I ran a Full Race catback for a bit over 10k miles without Flashpro and datalogged my air/fuel prior to tuning, and while the fuel trims were all over the place, the A/F wasn't dangerous at any point in time. No knocks or anything, probably just lost power in the low end. When I put Flashpro on it felt like a completely different car. Mid-range torque is much smoother and it doesn't bog down below 3k rpm nearly as much, on top of the obvious WOT power increases and elimination of rev hang. High RPM shifts feel much faster and more precise, no more shifting into 2nd as the tachometer hangs at 8k for an eternity.

[@ezcoreg759]

No matter what exhaust for the k20-24 set up I just cant get into this sound. To raspy for me. Shame because the K swap for the miata is what I was thinking on doing but now I think I'll do something else. P.S while writing this comment I had to mute the sound because it got to obnoxious for me. Shame, I really wanted to like this engine but there is no exhaust that makes it deep sounding instead it's all raspy and iconic Honda rice fart cannon sound. Thanks for the upload I left a like for you taking the time to post.

@@ezcoreg759 might be the header brother. I have an Invidia header with this exhaust and it sounds completely different. No rasp at all. Or it could be the camera making it more high pitched
