unfortunately, sum of the jdm exhaust will not fit 100% with the usdm GE8's, but it's really on a case by case basis. PM for further detail/clarification if needed.

Kakimoto is OK... they are kind of loud....after the muffler packing inside the muffler wears out...( 3~8 months )... I had one on my GD1... took it off with a quickness after the buzzing in my ears on the Freeway was unbearable

ok just called HKS Usa and they said both exhaust are too short and can start to burn the bumper, the Racing Suction is throwing a CEL since the ecu's of the JDM spec are different.

the rep did say they finished R&D on the a Hi-Power Exhaust for the US Fit and Suspenion Parts as well. Eta on the suspension is 6-8 weeks and the exhaust should be coming out soon

hope that helps

Most of the stuff are for the GE8, only a few for the GE6. I have to change my rear bumper to accomodate GE8 muffs I guess.

APEXi ( ax-back )
AXIS ( ax-back )
Moore Racing ( ax-back )
Noblesse ( ax-back )
J's Racing ( full )

and I'm sure there are a few that I have forgot... there should also be a few Stateside companies doing something for the USDM Fit... here shortly...
In case anyone is wondering about the loudness...

Noblesse's Type I is probably the quietest at 80dB

AXIS makes the fart can systems, loud at 96-98dB

J's Racing has the nice Titanium system weighing in at 2.4kg for the rear piece, it's 96dB and around 91dB with the silencer.

I'm leaning towards the Noblesse Type I, though I'd be curious to see if I can see any gains from it.

I really appreciate the loudness comparisons you have here...please keep it updated for us and/or start your own thread with it some day when there are more models to compare; this is really good info! I would choose the quietest model as well, as long as the gains are similar to the louder models..Thanks again!
