i personally dont like them.... when it comes to exhaust i say spend the extra money and get a good name like DC sports, Tanabe, A'pexi, etc.... you will be 10x more satisfied with the sound. that is personal experience.

You can't really guage how an exhaust is going to sound on your ride by looking at Civics. They have less displacement and a lot of times they get rid of their resonator and/or cat so the sound can vary greatly compared to what yours will sound like. It also depends on what type of muffler you get as well. Small and compact muff deadens sound less than larger ones.

That is true, I was just making a generalzation. It is true that most of the time the bigger the engine gets the better the exhaust will sound, but that civic sounded like shit. I dont think ractive exhaust will sound good on any car from what Ive heard.
