A+ for the hardwork and clean back end, the tips line up nice.

D- for the sound, it sounds too much like a civic with a slight v6 grumble.

To each his own, I respect people doing a job properly and giving things a whirl but that sound isn't for me.

Car doest sound as raspy in person and those were 3500-4000rpm revs so it was as load as it could be.at driving speeds 2000-2500sound deep and smooth ,but when you want to let it rip ,it sounds like your letting it rip.I asure you this car will crush most street driven civics. plans on making the ride fast now that it looks good.

Lol, I know dude that it will crush most stock civics in a straight line. But I wasn't comparing Civic speed, I was comparing Civic sound since that was the point of the muffler delete.

And honestly, any car where you delete part of the exhaust system will sound like "your letting it rip" when you get on the gas.

Also, those sound videos are not easy to get the full feel.

Nice look with the tips too.

One more question, If you were next to a cop on the road would you have to baby it to not atract his attetion. Kinda hard to tell from the video.


I'm thinking about doing some exhaust work. Got a welder itching to be used!

Looks nice I can see what the others mean by a V6ish Civic sound, try some long glasspacks from Cherrybomb they're $20 each at Pepboys

the rest of the exhaust is stock for now.I'm looking in to headers but that all I want to do.Next to a cop,would probally get him to look but,I dont think he would bother me unless reving it.or being on it chriping 2nd in his face. couple of pics in my album gallery. 2 1/4'' bolt on pipes so I'm able to convert back if nessasary.

I was thinking about no mufflers, and a 24 to 30 ich classpack on the center pipe. Maybe in place of the resonator.

Something like this might work better then a glasspack.
But I'd like to go to a single muffler. Not too sure about that "Y" pipe in the back. Would like to keep the dual outs. If I can get the muffler shop to make the "Y" pipe I would weld it up myself.

If I do it, I'll goe 2.5 inch.

Thanks for the info Parker!

The guy that did mine said they could make the Y pipe in 15minutes.When I pick my headers, I think I gonna have him make the Y in 2 1/4 right up to the mid muffler.and also 2 1/4 in between the cat and mid muffler,so the exhaust will flow better,but retain good back presure.
