pics of my new setup

here is a pic of my setup:

This one came out really crappy but u can kinda see what the muffler looks like


And the nice shinny header:


i didn't get pics of the underbody cause my camera sucks and it wont come out so......after the header attaches to the midsection their is a long straight pipe that goes to teh 2 90 degree bends to a magnoflow muffler. Full throttle the exhaust soudns pretty sweet. From idle to 3k rpm's it's a nice deep tone, but then if ur just acceling you get that nice raspy sounds that u usually hear from a civic. oh well

dc sport header...going to straight pipe going to magnaflow muffler....kinda looks stock. Under 3k rpm's nice deep sounds. NOT loud at all. After 3k if accelling hard the raspy sounds comes out and it soudns like a crazy civic muffler can which sucks but i could care less. i've spent too much money on it and the sound should be my last thing to worry about. The whole setup improved accel and top speed in all gears. here are my mph in each gear.
1st: 33
2nd: 59
3rd: 85
4th: max (115)
5th: max

All gears accel pretty hard. alot harder than stock. The lightened flywheel helps out alot and u can notice the accel right from 1st gear. I'm hoping to get some dyno numbers up so stay tuned

Eh, it shouldn't have increased speed in each gear. You hit redline the same as you would have before, right?

Glad you like it though

I agree with your logic 94_accord_EX but I too have noticed a difference in gearing/MPH. I have never figured it out.

okay let me try to explain...before the setup.....the car would accelorate but it would be slow and it would goto redline. In 4th gear i wasn't able to get to redline before. With the new setup the car redlines really quickly. My speeds at redline for each gear has increased alot. This is what i was doing before the setup:
1st : 25
2nd: 50
3rd: 70
4th: 90 (not redline)
5th: hahahah


you can see their is a difference in speeds, i didn't think just header back would increase the mph's as well as acceloration
