Fitted the Toda exhaust this morning, gave it a little test drive. It's so quiet!
Similar to stock standard :shock: In Vtec the Gruppe M's even louder than that. lol
The local garage complimented on the craftmenship of the exhuast and the welding skills on it
Overal im very happy with it, although i miss the N1 barking back it was nice to turn a new leaf after 4 years of owning a Spoons exhaust.
You also felt there was slightly more throttle responce compared with the spoon. The feeling is its more clean a crisp ( If that made any sense )

A few updates of the car.
bought some fogs a while back, never manage to hae time to fit them so decided to spend the whole afternoon fitting them.
Also source out a Buddyclub shortshifter which at first was a bitch to fit.
After driving around with the Toda exhaust with the OEM manifold ive found there was alot of vibrations coming from the bpipe area when i let go of the throttle. Luckly i only drive the car in the weekends and i quickly booked a slot at TGM to get the RBC / Toda Manifold fitted.
Tom was a top bloke and its nice to see a guy who takes alot of pride in his work and the passion he give in all the Type R's :smile: Couldnt fault him as he was so busy answering the phone and multi tasking between servicing a car and answering my questions.
Time was running short , so i had no time to get a fast road setup. Instead i got myself a J's Racing Throttle body :twisted:
After when all the gears fitted it feels so different. More responsive, more power and torque in the low/high ends.
The gruppe M sounds more louder and the mid pipe so :twisted:
More importantly the Toda manifold has cured the vibrations from the bpipe hitting the underside of the chasis.
Many thanks to Tom and Ken at TGM!
Mapping will be done At TDI north..... when i save enough money
Overal for the time being im very content of the power im its producing. Maybe il look into a LSD in the near future.

Mate that car is becoming something special.
Just need the geo done on it and a new map, are you still on the OEM map?
LSD would be a must if your a track guy a lot of people speak very highly of them.
If I was being picky the only thing im not keen on is the downpointing Toda, but other than that very very jealous of your pieces :smt047 .

I loved reading this thread. You created a track worthy none 'chav' Civic Type R.
I only wish other people followed suit.
Good luck with whatever you do next.
