Blitz Nur-Spec Muffler Pictures
Here are some pictures of the Blitz Nur-Spec Mufflers on my SC400. The Blitz literature lists them as being be for the SC300 but they fit the SC400 perfectly. They are polished mirror stainless and quite heavy duty. Here ya go....

Awesome! Thanks for the pics!
My roomate has hookups from BlitzUSA. They're headquartered not too far from where I am. He had the Nur Spec exhaust on his Accord and it was VERY loud. Even after putting on that silencer and putting in an extra resonator, it was loud. After a month or so, he got a fix-it ticket. Sucks.
So exactly how loud is this exhaust? If I get an exhaust, I want a relatively quiet one. But I also like the sound of aftermarket exhausts. I had a GReddy on my old Accord. It sounded good, but it got annoying after a while...

Don't worry. You will NOT get a fix-it ticket for running the Blitz Nur-Specs. At idle it sounds like a nice smooth gurgle and blurb. During acceleration they are more noticable but not loud at all. They are most loud at decelleration in the 40 to 30 MPH range where the downshift occurs from the higher gear to lower gear.
When cruising on the highway they are quiet inside the cabin. I have not removed any of the cats, center single forward muffler or the two rear resonators. I do suspect that if you took some of them off then the system would become louder.
The Nur-Specs are civil, no more or less noisy than the Borla system however a different look than the Borla.

Congrats on your new pipes! They look great!
By how you describe your exhaust, they sound like mine. Looking at your pipes make me wish I would have had my pipes angled upward and pushed out more. Again, they look great.

A few months back, my roomie told me that his blitz friend said that the SC300 exhaust was a prototype or something. And they only had a handful and sold them all. I don't know if that's completely true, but it supposedly came from a guy who works at Blitz.
Well, I guess I'll consider getting that exhaust. It looks real nice! I'm just not sure about the sound issue becuase I've heard my roomate's Blitz. He ended up driving with earplugs for a while.
Do you have those silencers on?

What I would like to find is a performance stainless system that replaces all the stuff up from from the cats back to and including the rear resonators. This would have to be a custom thing today as I have not found a system for sale.
I do not have the rear bolt on silencers, they are not needed IMHO. The system is not obnioxious.

You still have stock piping, cat and resonators in there. Remember, you will not gain much with just mufflers in this system but DO NOT pull out those resonators and pipes till you have a replacement resonator or a damn good muffler. My car is LOUD, and I'm going to call up Flowmaster (based here in norcal) for exhaust system flow/noise advice. I may also go up there and have them build a mandrel system for me.

Hey Madmax:
that is good advice. Those tiny rear resonators do cut down that much on the noise eh? They look so small that you would never guess they do that much noise abatement.
The gent in the Austrailian Soarer Club has a keen website.
You know the one? THE BFI Intake site?
Well, he did us all a favor...
As he was tearing his exhaust system apart from the rear end forward, he taped the exhaust at each step.
So at his site you can hear the standard exhaust, then sans the rear mufflers, then another tape of san the rear mufflers and rear resonators, then another sans the middle muffler and so on...
His site is a gem for all of us in the SC400 and Soarer community. He is a real credit to our ranks.
