If i get a universal muffler and have it welded onto the stock piping will it still sound good. I have been reading some threads about it but I dont know what everyone is talking about like getting a custom axle back or something like that. I am hopeless someone explain please.

what do you mean by good ?
and it always depends on what kind you get ........ you dont wanna sound like cheep fart rocket .

i was thinking of getting one of ebay. there is a DTM style muffler being sold for pretty cheap. well when i mean by good is a deep tone nothing too loud and thats exactly what i am trying to avoid sounding like a piece of crap. let me rephrase my question. if i dont change my piping when i add a a muffler will it sound crappy.

depends on the muffler..............the N1 style with/without the silencer don't sound too bad with the stock piping.

I bought a DTM style muffler off eBay a little while back(Arospeed). It sounded very deep, which I liked. However, it was way too loud for my tastes. It was on a little less than a week before I took it off and put the stock muffler back on. Right now the shop is holding my muffler - the guy there thinks he get me $80 for it so I get all my money back less what I paid for installation. One more thing about universal mufflers - most of them have a center inlet while our stock muffler has a offset inlet. The shop you take it to will have to custom bend a pipe to fit it in there, which depending where you go can be very costly.

In the end, I really liked the tone of the muffler, but ti was way too loud for my tastes.

I hope this helps you in your decision.

I have a HKS with dual outlets that looks just like the stock 3.0 muffler the sound is deep but deffinately not to loud not even close to a N1 or something like that. I have gotten many compliments on the tone and sound level I highly recommend it.

STLUSMCH

I got the HKS muffler from my friend who was selling his 300zx I had my muffler guy custom fit it. It was only 2 months old when he sold the car so the thing was still basically new when I got it he sold the other one to this other guy we know. we each got one for $150. Good deal for HKS his loss our gain.

Yo fode, why you getting all bent out of shape? IF thats what they want to know and you dont want to answer the question, keep your comments to yourself. You think anyone here want to see you bitch.

Umm, I am sorry to say but I think that F-de probably knows the most about the 2.2cl, so what he says is pretty much the law. So shut the hell up

if you have the 3.0 the N1 isnt going to sound high pitched and raspy cuz you have a 6 cylinder. if you have a 2.x then it will.

Limmerz

I could be wrong....but they don't make the N1 for 94-97 accords. Is there a different application that we could use?
