What the hell are you trying to say here? Are you trying to ask what size piping you should get for the full exhaust?

No matter what you do to your honda 4cyl engine
It is going to sound like a rice burner, that's just what they sound like. It is something you will have to come to terms with.

Depends on your motor size... i'm assuming you have a 2.3L?
I Have a 2.2L with a 2.25" piping. Take it from there, and if you don't want a ricey tone, don't modify your exhaust.

search for a thread titled "bad exhaust links" You will probably like blind_shooter's exhaust set up. He has 2.5" (he lost power, but he has that deeper town you are looking for.)

A bigger resonator would help with that ricey note.

If you're wanting a decent, quiet performance exhaust (which I'm not completely sure what you're asking), then the two best options would be an Apex'i World Sport II (nearly silent) or a GReddy Street Performance II (little louder). These are both pretty good systems that arn't terribly loud and have a nice deep tone. And a new catback exhaust, with mandrel bent piping such as the two I suggested, will increase power (slightly), as it is less restrictive than your stock system.

And not only do angled exhaust make your car look sick, they will give you an additional like 20-30 RWHP atleast.

yea getting out of hand with dumb comments which doesnt even answer the dudes question.

i agree with aqua1stgen on your choices, but i disagree because in my expieriences i feel the Ws2 is louder than the Sp2. another VERY QUIET exhaust with a small tip is the RS*R Ex-Mag exhaust, but its a bit pricey.

So which is the quietest/best muffler I can get? I have the n1 on right now, but it's getting embarassing having the loudest car in the area with no power... So when i do an h22 swap I'll put the n1 back on, but in the meantime... What would you guys recommend?

Yeah I love my WS2, it is nice and quiet but you still get something. It is not far from stock at all. It looks like a bigger "louder" exhaust but it is not at all. I think I paid like 380 shipped on ebay for it brand new about a year and a half ago.

ahh i see. my friend has an N1 on his 98 Civic coupe with a JDM GSR swap and it sounds official. i guess apexi never designed the Accord app with the angled look like they did with the Civic/Integra app.
