Me Wasting Gas (Video Inside)
I decided to shoot a short video my Accord now that I'm totally done with the exhaust.
I pass by a dead end street that runs through the middle of a farm on the way home from work when I take back roads, so last week I set up the tripod and launched the car a few times so I could hear what it sounds like from the outside. It was pretty fun and I'm pretty happy with the final outcome.
Here's the exhaust set-up: J-Shift J Pipe --> J-Shift Test Pipe --> Custom Bent 2.5" Mid Pipe --> 2.25" Y Pipe --> '03 Acura CL TypeS Mufflers
Tell me what you guys think. I know it's no NSX or CTS-V, but I'm purdy proud of my little Accord!

Thanks for the positive comments everyone! What I love most about it is it's not too loud, doesn't drone on the highway or around town and once over 4k RPM the V2 takes over with a deep grow. It does sound great from the inside, too. I'll have to make a video of that next.

Glad to see everyone approves.
I couldn't agree more. Not only in sound but in looks. I love the sound of the GReddy Evo on the 7th Gen AV6 but it looks like you can fit a basketball in each muffler. Just not my style now that I'm 30+ y/o.
I think the Accord would put at least a car length on the CL-S in the 1/4 mile, but that's mainly due to the Accord being a 6spd vs. the CL being an auto. The CL-S shinned when flooring it at highway speeds but definitely not in the 0-60 category.
