I left my car there for the weekend, the upgrades are right after 2nd cat, 2.25 piping w/stock or longer resonator and this 2.25 magnaflow muffler showed here

Wonder how's the car going to sound cuz i don't want it loud, that's gonna depend on which resonator they are gonna weld on

Opinions please! :rolleyes:

thx!

it should sound pretty good. magnaflows are know to be quiet, just a low rumble.

That ebay muffler will be deep sounding, but they wear out and turn raspy after a month. My friend had one on his integra that he used as a winter car. it sounded nice for a month or so then went to hell. You current exhaust setup will just give you sound, im sure there will be no gains in power, and if there are you wont be able to tell.

with any normal sized power plant exhaust changes do improve it, but with our craptasticly small motors, anything bigger that stock takes away that much needed backpressure

no what most people say, is that there will be a gain, you just barely notice it.
