exhaust question
hi,im sure this question have been asked a dozen of times,and probably been answered as well,im planning to buy an exhaust system in the next 2 month ive put away the right amount that i can play with budget wise,i am not looking for the cheesy sounds that makes it look like i have a fast car when in reality its otherwise, i dont drive a vette nor a boxter,so with a 1.6 liter there isnt a big point in making the car seem like a muscle car when its not. However, i would like somethig that is moderate in sound something deep but not loud,and will give an increase in hp as well as better gas mileage.This is for a 2000 civic.Also do i really need a full catback or its just something that would be better or nice to have.Thanks in advance.

thanks for the offer but i already have someone i get stuff from and had experience with in the past here plus i dont like to deal with onliners 'cause since they cant get their stuff for the item through price they charge to give better deal what they do in return is they over price on the shipping when its so cheap in reality...nothing personal
ill consider the whole evo and the thermal thanks |

if your looking for a difference in performance, or if your looking to buy something in plans for something else later, ie engine mods, turbo, etc. then go with the catback. If your just looking to appear like all the other "modded" cars on the road just get a can and slap it on. you'll gain almost nothing due to your restrictive stock piping.
but just about any thing mentioned above is a good brand. I bought an Apexi WS catback myself and am loving the deep low tone, no fart can or can of bees at all. I do have a problem of vibration over the sway bar and chassis, though. |
