don't get anything resembling a fart can and makes your car sound like a lawnmower... speaking of which, honda does make a lawnmower so go ahead and use a fartcan.

I have the Tsudo N1 Style Cat-Back system with 2.5" piping from the cat-back and a 4" outlet. I love the way it sounds around town and if I smash the gas pedal down it gets loud while also being pretty quiet under 3k rpm. On the freeway doing 80 is another story. I made a drive from southern california to norther california with this exhaust and the hummmm @ 80mph got a little annoying. My suggestion would be if your going on the highway alot its too much, if your driving around the city more have fun get the 4". Oh and FYI before I purcahsed this exhaust system I was using a OBX N1 Style 3" muffler and it basically started melting my rear bumper, installed my cat-back system and no more melting. Just a thought before you go gettin that OBX brand stuff.

i have OBX headers and in my opinion OBX aint a all that bad company, and as for the 4' exhaust, i think it will look down, specialy if u get it slanted, but just make sure its not high pitched, most likely its not since it'll be too big, but i like how that looks, and go turbo too, my friend has a GSX eclipse, with a HUGE exhaust, looks good to me, but dont let other people change ur mind, like the first guy said, its all up to u

Look into the Greddy Evo 2...i just installed it on my sedan and it sounds really good...not to loud, except on freeway driving like stated about other exhausts. I would reccomend the Greddy or a magnaflow exhaust

ever seen one of these>>> . ?

and its not a 4" exhaust its a 4" tip>
of course go turbo
headers are different than a catback exhuast system!
its a much more complex set of bends and needs to have consistant size throughout to make any difference at all.
look at the inside of a kamakazi/DC header then look at the inside of your OBX there is a huge difference in quality...

if your gonna get a knockoff anyways get the megan system..
they are good but you are going to endup spending only like 100 less for it when you could just save up...
