im talking about a website. It was close to $300, because thats what got me interested in magnaflow a while ago. On www.nopionline.com it's $350, so that says you should be able to find it for $300.

Rep Power: 359 really i thought the skunk 2 was louder, and i like the idea of the adjustable hangers that the magnaflow has compared to the others, cause ive heard of the paint getting burnt off with the muffler being to close like on the skunk 2 and so forth

that is a bullshit dyno of the magnaflow...haha...looks soo fake. Anyways, http://www.ptuning.com/html/Item-Des...odelDesc=Civic is the location of the magnaflow for $375.95. More than nopionline, but it gives some more info...like 9.2 hp increase! It does have this in the description though;
"Magnaflow cat-back exhaust systems are constructed entirely of stainless steel and feature large diameter, mandrel-bent extension pipes, a Mirror Finish Stainless Steel Magnaflow muffler and polished stainless tip. The system include the Magnaflow Performance muffler best suited to the needs of the vehicle and all system hardware, flanges and gaskets needed to complete the installation."
hmm.

Rep Power: 359 damn i think i may to get one of these then, since it is so cheap compared to the others and doesnt sound to bad either, i ahve a header ive wanted to instal too, but i guess ill shop do it if i get this exhaust
it says free shipping for orders of 250 and more so 319.36 with no sales tax cause they are based in Woodbridge,Ontario, so that sounds pretty good to me

Rep Power: 284 If you get the full cat-back, i recommend you get it welded. It tends to hang really low. If I have a friend in the car, I tend to scrape and I'm running on stockies with no drop...

Rep Power: 0 is the magnaflow for our car 2.25" piping or 2.5"? cuz if it's 2.25, i'd get it over the tsudo N1 style, but if they're both 2.5, it'd be a tough choice. they both go for around the same price...

Rep Power: 359 which full catback do you mean? and what do you mean by welded, wouldnt you just need new hangers or something? that seems crazy that your scraping when you still have stock wheels and height but now it has me worried cause i have that too

Rep Power: 0 its 2.25. I don't have one, but I think the problem is that one of the brackets that hooks the piping to your car is excessivly low. Ergo, you can just get that point welded, and take out the bracket.

Rep Power: 359 so if i take to an isntaller who does this "Full exhaust fabrication, headers & systems." then they will be able to fix it , also i figured since i cant install the exhaust myself i might as well have them install my dc header as well cause i couldnt get one of the bolts loose, what do you think that will run? also is it a good idea?

Rep Power: 0 hey runner, i might buy one of these soon, and if i do, i'll definitely be putting it on myself.......so, since i live in SD, i'll let you know if i do (in which case i'll get the jackstands, etc), and maybe then you'll want to do it yourself, using my stuff......

Rep Power: 359 thanks that would be nice, actually right now i just go to SDSu and live in the dorms so not much room to do things , unlike home which is Santa barbara, and i was thinking about asking for the magnaflow exhaust for christams since it was only 319.36 with no tax and free shipping and since i was there might as well have it installed and my header too since i couldnt get the old one off my self but im always into saving money

Rep Power: 0 I put mine on this morning. It is a decent growl (for a honda its great). Install was easy, but i drove out to a muff. shop to weld it. It comes with a big shiny tip which i am not so fond of (will prolly hack it off and just have no tip)...
Sound- Great
Fit- well, its not low, that is for sure, actually it is too high (the top of the tip is touching my bumper, and a bit of the pipe hits the subframe, so i will either need to lower it, or dent the pipe, or grind the sub frame a touch... otherwise, i am very happy.
Power- i can tell its a touch better at times, but if there is any knock sensor on my car, it is deffinately being triggered by the exh. hitting the sf. I will fix that tomorrow, then will know more.
Tomorrow i will drop the cat prolly, to hear what thats like, till the turbo goes in on the 28th.
EDIT: the fitment issue was my fault, i did not push the pipe into the 3bolt flange enough. It needed to be pushed in more, moving the entire cat back more foward, and now it hangs perfect... could not be better. fyi
