exhaust?

Im looking for a good mufler. I dont need the complete system, I just need the mufler. I dont want one too loud. just want it to sound good and clean w/ a little thwart. What are your suggestions? Thanks

Ryan

Any muffler really, whatever style you perfer. You can just the back section, that bolts right up to your stock exhaust... that way you can avoid installation costs.

Alright, forget this muffler stuff. I am now in the market for a catback system. Give me your feedback on the best reasonably priced catback systems..

I have a 96 accord and was wondering what the diameter of the stock pipes were?

a friend of mine has the same year accord as you ( i think ) and he had the apexi WS...its nice and quiet...PERFECT for sleeper cars... my short ram made more noise than the WS (then again the intake make a sh*tload of noise ) i'd recommend the WS if your looking for a subtle exhaust note..:

I have a guy around here who runs a shop willing to sell me a GReddy Evo catback for $570 no shipping charged, but currently I have NO money
seen a few around here and they are nice, maybe look into them
of course he described them as a nice low rumble until your VTEC kicks in, then it screams like a little girl

i got my GREDDY EVO for $475 SHIPPED!! RavingCivic gots the hookups! I love the EVO! nice deepness...yum...and it showed noticeable torque increase in midrange...all i can really say about the N1 is that it is LOUD AS HELL!! i've never driven a car with an n1 exhaust (*so i wouldn't know about hp gains) but damn are they loud...highway cruisin' with an n1 will result in a headache.. my friend with the Apexi WS exhaust on his accord just got an n1-style exhaust a few weeks ago..he said the WS was too quiet for him..

See I really dont want anything loud, I just want it to have a nice clean sound. Its so hard to look at them online because you dont know what they sound like. I would much rather it be too quiet then too loud. And I dont want anything high pitched.. How does your EVO sound as far as loudness?

I was also looking at the Tenzo Venturi. Looks nice, but does anyone know anything about the performance or sound?

I see people talking about the APEXi WS and it seems the overwhelming response is that it is too quiet.. How quiet is it? Can you hear any difference between it and the stock exhaust? Thanks for your help

well, the WS is quiet, no doubt about that but it depends on you how quiet you want it, and as far as i remember there's a noticeable difference between the stock exhaust and the WS..

now about my EVO.. i really like the deepness of it, its not high-pitch like the N1 and it isn't annoyin' during highway cruises... i recently drove my car with the evo on I-94 and i went 90 mph and the exhaust is hardly noticeable all i could hear was the lovely sound of it...and the music wasn't blarin' either

regular driving the evo purrs a slightly noticeable noise but once you get on it , it gets nice and aggressive!
