Angled exhaust???

What do you guys think of an angled exhaust??? I have been looking at the HKS rear section and was a little disappointed to see it is angled. Do you guys think this looks good or do you think it is dumb??? Any reply would be nice.

PS - If this is in the wrong forum you can move it. I just thought since it is an opinionated topic it should be in Member's Rides.

cosmeticly it looks better straight, many exhaust experts like it angled for better performance. on my 93 accord it was angled but not on my 7th gen. i prefer it straight on my civ

I have the HKS so I guess my opinion is bias. I think it looks good, and I like to be different. It stands out and has its own identity. Its all a matter of personal preference. I found more value in not having the same exhaust as all the other 7thgen friends of mine, plus I like the looks, price, and sound

i have not seen anyone with my exhaust set up yet kamikaze header with custom pipes all the way to the flowmaster, i kept the resonator though. its not as loud as i would like it to be only loud between 3500 and 4500 rpm

Dizzle: True. I still have a ways to go with the rest of my exhaust. I have only changed the rear section thus far. How do you like the Kamikaze header? I thought about it, but in MO we have emissions test... no cat => sure to fail.

We have emissions in Nevada to, Ill just put on the stock one when registration comes (2months).
I like the Kamikaze header. I think that the gas released through my exhaust makes me dizzy after driving for a while. I hope i dont suffer from carbon dioxide poisoning. performance wise, a little difference. from 3000 to 6500 rpm it pulls harder. worth the 240 i paid for it. I thought it would make my exhaust louder but it really didnt.

angeled how? DTM style or Supra sideways style? Supra style would look weird on a civic, and DTM stlye would be hard to rock unless you get it right.
