Performance exhaust tuning tip.
Performance exhaust tuning tip.
If you REALLY REALLY want power I have a tip. Note this may be illegal. Take a can of cheap spray paint and paint your exhaust system white from the cat back. Drive around for a day or two then look at the system. Most of the system will be black (the paint burned off). Where the paint stops turning black is where the exhaust is mostly cooled and is just "along for the ride". Now get your hacksaw and cut your system off just after that point. Bolt on a high-flow muffler (if you removed all your mufflers). Then target that exhaust right out the side using a 90º or a 45º bend and some straight pipe. This is what I did. It cost me all of $40, made my car sound nice, and made my exhaust flow like the Mississippi.

why not just get a catback from the start so you wouldnt have to hack away at your exhaust system. Makes more sense.
And why the hell would you want your exhaust coming out the side for anyway? Isnt like you are autocrossing and trying to make room for sway bars or anything. And your car isnt running 900HP. I think you are just making your car into a little ricer civic.
