Tanabe, Greddy or A'Pexi?
Hello! I was wondering if any of you could recommend one of these cat-back exhausts makers for my 1994 Honda Accord LX. My main criteria is performance then low sound.
 These are my choices... - Tanabe Racing Medallion - Tanabe Hyper Medallion - Greddy Evolution - A'pexi World Sport Any recommendations will be helpful and experiences if any of you have used one or more of my choices. TIA!  |

Hi TIA
WELCOME TO HONDASTYLE
where are u from ? well for the exhaust i would go with Racing Medalion, but a lot of times you are paying for the brand. you can have the same results from a custom exhaust 2.25" or 2.5" mandrel bent pipe not crushed pipe for half the price.

Hi, and welcome to HS!
I like the Racing Medallion, but my all time favorite is the tanabe dtm dual tip setup. That's what I'm going to get when I do my exhaust.

Thanks for the warm greetings!!
 So far everyone seems to like the Tanabe RM but reading the different posts it seems that its the loudest of them all. Is there a silencer that comes with it? |

Hmm.. I like the fact that the tanabe Rm has a silencer that comes with it. Right now I am leaning towards the Tanabe RM. I plan on ordering it by Friday so I have 2 days to do more research and hear your input!
Speak now or forever hold your peace!! hehehe -John |

I love the sound of the EVO, but strongly dislike the huge tip. I'm just not about that.

It sits well on some cars.. Accords.. And even though its big, it doesnt standout that much..

Apex
I just put an APEX World Sport cat-back on my 94 accord, and i like it. It sounds pritty much stock, but I can tell a difference in power. VERY stock sounding. Also, all the pictures I found of the muffler made the tip look small, but in real life, it's pritty beafy. about 3 1/2"-4" diameter. It only sticks out about an inch from the bumper as well. Also, it hung very well, and there is no rubbing anywere.
Overall if you don't want a load system I would highly recomend the Apex WS. |

How'd you get the kit on a 4th gen? They only make it for the 5th. Custom piping?
