I say get the Vibrant. That's what I have and I love it. It's not a true turbo-back though, it bolts onto the s-pipe.

[Ricktalife]

eww please don't get the magnaflow. i have a magnaflow muffler on mine and it drones so bad. also the vibrant is not a turboback. it's a j-pipe back. if you want turboback you have to get the GHL or find a used ION.

bah he beat me.

[aaragona]

really the magnaflow drones out bad eh...well thats good news about the vibrant how does it sound because, when i picked up the car the guy who owned it b4 me just had a welded vibrant muffler on the stock piping so i had a local muffler shop take it off it didnt do anything.. lol

[Ricktalife]

yea mufflers just make noise.

[Outlawstar98]

Get the Vibrant. Or get a shop to make you a 3" turboback, going to cost alot of $$$$$ but its worth it.

[HondaEat-R]

Get a Perrin, no cat. Unless you like to hug trees that is... It's stupid loud though, hope you don't like music...

[mspHtown]

definitely search the forums. everyone is going to recommend something different. there are so many deciding factors... cost, completeness, loudness, fitment, etc.

check out:

vibrant
GHL
perrin
corksport

i have the vibrant, if you have any questions just let me know.

[theEZV]

dont forget about the corskport. best bang for the buck

i am running a apexr1 j/mid and greddy sp2 and i couldnt be happier

my counties require emissions ya know.

[HondaEat-R]

my counties require emissions ya know.

Yikes. NY is a pain in the ass for most everything, except no emissions, go figure. Sometimes no visual inspection of the undercarriage either.

[Captain KRM P5]

these are the two most complete systems available still for the msp

http://siteground207.com/~protegeg/product_info.php?cPath=22_310_136&products_id=1502
http://siteground207.com/~protegeg/product_info.php?cPath=32_166&products_id=1378

get this down pipe to complete either as a true "turbo back"

hmm yeah everyone does say something different lol but i cant remove the cat (s) my car gets enough looks already thus becase its not a common car and its a msp haha...but this is a daliy driven car. this will raise so much attention i already had a vibrant on it i had to remove it i was bothered a lot about it never given any tickets but enought to anoy you. but im lookin for a quality system with great flow ($ is not that big of an issue) that wont be riced out...its funny no one wants me to go for the magnaflow lol

Get. The. Vibrant. TBE.

It comes with a cat and it doesn't have a ricey exhaust note at all. It's a smooth, deep rumble at idle and has a nice roll under load. Magnaflow drones like a mofo and Corksport doesn't come with a cat. Good luck finding a decently-priced Perrin or a GHL exhaust.

The Vibrant also looks dead sexy. :)

[MSpeedFreak03]

vibrant J-pipe back awesome setup, get it and be done with this thread!

[Ricktalife]

just an fyi. GHL no longer makes our exhaust.

[SpeedAdiction20]

I will add to the suggestions for Vibrant, I've driven with both CS and Vibrant, (didn't have the CS on there for that long, because i needed the cat for emissions when I registered it, and didn't want to deal with the CEL fix thing), but I love the vibrant, they both sound similar, I'd say the vibrant is a little deeper/louder but not by much, you can always put the silencer in, but if you can get a hold of a CS "S" pipe that would really be the best with the vibrant IMO... it is worth the money

there was a thread just like this if I remember 2 weeks ago, but everyone needs personal responses I guess, good to get feedback

-oh also if you do actually order the vibrant, make sure they send you all of the bolts and gaskets, along with the O2 extender, I didn't use the O2 extender anyways, but they had forgot to send me 1 of the gaskets and bolts along with the extender they said they would send with the exhaust, so I just had to call them up to explain and have them send it, I know a couple other people had similar situations back when I had a thread about this.. just an fyi

[DeuceMalicai]

vibrant FTW! with the HKS rear section;)

[SwirlFX]

I've had both. That magnaflow was on my car when I bought it. I hated it. No gain what so ever. Car was still competely silent. A pointless buy it would be.

I ditched it for my Vibrant turboback, and never looked back.

[SwirlFX]

A year after I got my turboback I modified it with a Virbant Flat Black Muffler. My taste changed a bit, but I still love my exhaust.

Could you post a pic of the back of your car with the muffler that you use now? :)
