I already have the ebay header installed along with a flex pipe and performance catalytic converter. I need a new muffler now and the piping that rides up and over the rear pass-side axle. I did have an Aeroturbine Muffler but I want something that will be more acomadating for my exhaust setup. Something that sounds deep and doesn't get tinny in the upper RPM range. Any ideas?

Doesn't the sound depend very much on teh engine type as well?
I have a 3S-GE 3rd gen. After servicing it myself it sounds a bit better (using full synth oil). Once teh back box (muffler) broke off the piping, effectively eliminating the larger part of the exhaust end box usage. It sounded quite a bit more sporty without sounding like waking up neighbours. I'd like that sound again (stock resonator at the moment), so I may try some straight through exhausts before anything else. |

I recently removed the stock reso and replaced it last Sat with the Aero Reso I mentioned above. It sounds just how I wanted it to. Nice and bassy and very sporty. Definitely not like a civic sounds! |
