What if you were to just upgrade the piping to 2.25" and keep the stock mufflers and cats on? Would it be just a bit louder? The stock muffler is what really kills the volume on the exhaust. It has to be one of the most muffling mufflers I've ever heard. ![]() Anyone used them cheap obx mufflers before? I've heard them on my cousins civic before and it sounds pretty nice. Not raspy. -------------------- |

Magnaflow mufflers aren't much more expensive than the cheap crap. The XL series starts in the $50 range and their straight through series starts in the $60 range.

Indeed. Tip is another $25 or so at the cheapest. Just think though, you're supporting hard working American machines and the Americans that move stuff between them.

Sup guys, I'm looking to get a muffler for my '99 vert and was wondering if you guys had any videos of your setups? Tryna get a LOW DEEP SOUND on one but not tryna get a full exhaust system. Also, one without an annoying tone when you're cruising the freeway at 65mph (still gonna be my daily driver to work 25 miles away). Thanks in advance! You can't. You need a turbocharger turbine in the exhaust stream, freeflowing exhaust on non turbo 4cyl = Nin nin Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii i tin can honda ricer. -------------------- Mike W

The only good sounding 4 cylinder is the crossplane crankshaft I4 used in the Yamaha sport bikes. Through careful selection of exhaust components an I4 can be halfway ok though. The biggest thing is to use a resonator and a baffled muffler.

make sure you use thick sidewall exhaust piping as in the gauge of the piping thickness.
