also on a side note, just checked my oil and its black... :lipsrsealed:

service was in march...oil change as standard...i did use that oil stuff from redex to brake down any gunk...drove all the way up to scotland and back and was spot on, no rough idling, no smoke, i know my exhaust flexi has started to die, catch can produces the same off brown liquid, and there seems to be alot of mayo build up everywhere...?

any ideas?

I bought this system back in July and have had not problems with it!
Bough from jdmhondaparts for £220 delivered and it came it 5 days which included the weekend!
It's great quality and sounds awesome!
When it come to power gains the number 1 rule is flow=power
So any full 3" system will provided better power potential then a 2.5" one.
I think paying silly prices for miltek etc is just daft when you can get this one for £220!  :laugh:
