So I need some of your opinions on this. I have 2 2.5" magnaflow mufflers that i bought used from this guy for 75 bucks for both. I was thinking i could sell one and make some profit or at least break even and then install the other one for about 100 bucks at most(quoted from a mechanic).

Or i was thinking to just get a cat back. My friends dad is a mechanic and can install a custom catback that he can make for $250. Which i thought was pretty damn good. I also get a choice between which brand I want(I personally want magnaflow). Money is not the problem I just dont know what i want. Im not planning to keep my 2004 civic forever, probably like a year or 2 and then get a manual car for myself. But I also dont want to just be cheap and get a muffler. I don't need performance from a catback but its always a plus. What would you guys do ?

id sell one muffler then have a custom catback made with the other magnaflow muffler you already have.

Yeaa i could do that. how much money you think ill save ? and what if i wanted another car the only thing is that its a custom catback and it might not fit into that car.

an exhaust shop near me in Oakville will charge you prob 250 to make you a catback with one of your magnaflow mufflers. just make sure you tell them exactly what you want. so your saving a lot of money if you decide to go that route.

even if you bought a catback exhaust for your car it will only fit a 7thgen civic no other cars.

I can get a custom cat with a new muffler for about 250. I already sold my magnaflows anyway, made about 100 profit. Besides magnaflow is there anything loud but really deep. I know choices are limited since it is a civic, but I was thinking apexi n1 exhaust or vibrant exhaust.

Also would it sound any different if I got a custom exhaust with apexi muffler compared to an actual catback from apexi ? I heard that the custom catback won't sound as good. Is there anyway I can get the muffler shop to make it sound deeper and louder to ?

ad a larger,longer resonator vibrant makes a nice one its called ultra quiet.

i have a apexi n1 cat back with a ebay header and custom down pipe. the apexi n1 has a nice deep tone. mine is quite at idle but once i put my foot into it gets louder but not to loud... if you always want it louder you can take the resonator out but usually when you take the resonator out the exhaust sounds raspy.

yeah the resonator gets rid of high pitch noises like most ebay fart cans give you.

Look into getting an apexi N1 or Skunk2 megapower cat-back exhaust, those things sound nice.

So I decided to get a header-back with either a apexi n1 or apexi ws2 muffler n tip. Is there much of a difference between a custom header and a brand name ? And what's the largest resonator I can put ? One day I was outside and I saw a celica drive by with a catback and I swear I could feel it vibrate in my ear, it was such a nice sound. I'm assuming because he had a large resonator. I'm gonna ask what he has lol I know it won't sound the same on my civic though...

definitely get the WS2 if you want a low rumble.
