Gearbox is right about puting the stock system back on....When you open up the airflow...You loose low end power aka pull or Tq...some of you call is "back pressure"...Keep your stock for the most off the line power and just weld a nice looking tip.
I took the RSX type S tip and cut it off. Then cut off about 8 inches off the stock civic pipe coming off the end...and welded the acura tip to the end of mine....Looks like factory Acura RSX type S from the back...sorry no pics

nice. yea you have to balance it. i still have the stock header so it kinda makes up for it. when i dynoed with the rsr i didn't really lose any torque but gained more power above 5k rpms (not that it even matters).

PM me if you know companies that are hiring.
That's what sucks about 4 bangers...You never know what's going to rob power and what's going to gain...unless you buy it and put it on to see the difference. V8's normally always get good gains from bolt-ons..ect
I'm back to stock now from all the waisted money. The car runs so much better and it will probably last longer too. Except the tranny that I'm having looked at tomorrow @ Honda
Single canister means there are no chambers inside like the flowmaster to give it that deep sound...Single canister is exactly how it sounds straight through flow with no chambers to break it up to mess with the sound. If you were to open up a flowmaster muffler you will see different "paths" inside routing the air through chambers. Canister doens't have that. Make sense? I like the sound you are going for too. As redneck as I'm not...I like the sound of the super 40 flowmaster..Sounds like a v6 on our cars
Yeah...I agree with the whold FLowmaster thing...It's more of a domestic car thing...But there is a hillbilly at work who did it..SOunds good! I don't know about the DC..From other threads on here..not too many people like it.
Fit: 3.8 - the pipe looks a tad akward
power: 1.75 - not a free-flowing exhaust
loudness: 2.5 - not a great scorer on loudness, but under 4,000 rpms it's a deep refined sound of sexiness, any higher and it starts to sound farty, so i'd give it a 4.1 for exhaust note.
Invidia Cat Back
Fit 3 - mid pipe hangs low and scrapes. Rear hits sway occassionally.
Power 3
Loudness 3.5 - Louder than stock but not raspy. Deep tone.
Fit: Perfect, looks amazing, all chrome..keep it clean from side and back looks realll nice.Sits perfectly.
Power: Does rob low end but wit my other mods (i/h/e, pulleys, fidanza )flywheel, exedy clutch,etc..) it pulls hard. Very good for high rpm and high speeds. Its helped me get to 150.
Loudness: Quiet on idle, slight throddle and low throddle, basically only loud when you want it to be. Very nice DEEP muscle car sound. Even better when I get my Stage 2 Crower Cams. Cant wait!! Highly recommended Full Catback System!!!
Megan Racing Catback
fit- 5. no problems. perfect fit, don't rub anything at all. easy as pie.
power- 3. some gains, after 3500 you can really feel something. it breathes easier.
loudness- i wake up neighboors regularly- 5. even my dad comes down stairs at night when i come home after work.
at start up its DEEP and growls. when the motor is warm, you can hear its not a normal exhaust, but its a light idle noise.
