Recommended exhaust systems

This seems like the right palce to post this but sorry in advance if it's misplaced.

I've been scouring the forums and havent found a place to see compatibe and recommended exhaust systems for my car.


It's a 1998 Acura CL 3.0

I'm trying to find a nice performance exhaust that's not excessively noisy.
The A'PEXi WS II looks nice but it doesn't look like they make it for my car. Would one for an accord work? if so what trim and years?

Other than that does anyone have any specific exhaust systems they would recommend or any that would be compatible with my car?
Thanks guys!

alot of people here like the apexi ws2, and yes, most accord parts line up with our cars. 94-97 suspension and performance for that matter. theres a bunch of people with exhaust clips of what there cars sound like if your interested in listening to them before you go out and buy something hoping it sounds good. i personally have a 2.3 but with a custom 2.5" piping and a Megan N1 Glasspack straight pipe.

Ok. Thanks guys. I have looked around and the GReddy evo2 sounds really nice and is a little cheaper than the apexi ws2.
just double checking this exhaust for a 94-97 accord I4 will work on the 6cyl 98 CL?

no the accord I4 is a 4cyl. you have to look for the v6 accord. those will fit.
94-97 accord v6

accord v6

the only GReddy evo2 exhaust i can find for the v6 accord is the 98-2002.

Do you think that will fit entirely?

Thank you but that does not help 97black.

I already read the noob guide before posting here.
It says the catback exhaust systems meant for a 94-97 accord 2door will work.
The 1997 Accord 2door was only available with an inline 4 cylinder engine I believe and thats why I was asking. The above people said only some of the parts fit for the I4 but the noob guide doesnt specify??

Any help from anyone would be great I just want to make sure the exhaust I get can be correctly installed on my 98 CL 30 without any problems.
