This is easy. Find the part number and order it online from a vendor. Be careful buying parts from other markets as there is a chance the part doesn't fit, doesn't fit well, or you lose standard functionality.
I reviewed this system a couple years back, check my post history. I would absolutely buy it again. If you're looking for a loud(er) system, look elsewhere.
As for slip joint vs. flange, it's been sensationalized on this forum. It's a non-issue. From the turbo back there are four connections...
Congrats! Glad you picked up a crispy S2000, but sad to see you defected as one of the OG FL5 owners. No photos, no details? Would love to learn more about the car.
Their "Master Detailer" is probably the youth out back with the water hose that provides courtesy washes after service. This is a waste of your time and theirs. Just pass, have them order you the lower portion of the seat so you can move on. You may need the cushion/pad AND the cover since it...
This is all too common. Here's the starter pack to rest easy(ier).

Makes sense. In GA, they don't do any of that. There's an OBD scan to search for DTCs. If there are no codes, you're good. The two visual inspections are for catalytic converter and fuel cap inspection, which the inspector never performed. I was in and out in about 90 seconds.
It's difficult to say because each state approaches inspections and emissions testing differently. I'm tuned and didn't have an issue in the state of Georgia.
Get the recall done. I would be less concerned about the change in steering feel and more concerned about them damaging my car while performing the work. I suggest taking photos and videos, and conducting a walkthrough with the service advisor to document the condition of your vehicle...
Super helpful. Might be good to provide that feedback to COBB Tuning to add that clarifying point to the installation instructions. It sounds like this discovery is worth either separate instructions for the FL5 or at least a call out. There are some customers who are not interested in cutting...
