GreezyMooz is an unknown quantity at this point
Custom axle back 2" no muffler with 3.5" resonated tip

Fit 5 (my exhaust shop rocks!)
power 2.5 ( a slight difference @ low end; BIG above 4k)
loudness 2 (slightly louder than stock)

This started out as a joke when I took off the muffler one sunday. My neighbor came over to see what pricey exhaust I had finally bought and was shocked to find that it was just the stock 1.5" piping and resonator. This is a cheap mod for people who want to actually hear their motor. The sound ? Deep occasionly farty at part throttle and completely silent while cruizn'. But under acceleration it sounds just like a freakin' cup car!!! awsome!

Just installed super 40 flowmaster catback on my 01 4dr, and i love it, sounds sooo good, and although flowmaster is more domestic it has done me well so far, only about 2 hours ago however.

fit 5 (perfect fit, other than having to cut the rear bumper to keep from melting
power 3.5 could be better, could be worse

sound 5 - just had my resonator removed, and holy sh^t it got louder, and throatier, now it rumbles!!

i installed the HKS hi-power a few days ago. i didnt want an exhaust that would be an ear buster on the freeway, so i opted for this one. subtle, low rumble, but it barks when you get on it.

fit 3 (hangs low and i gotta get the pipe adjusted)
power 3 (some low end, picks up at 3-4k)
sound 2.5 (low rumble, but loud when u want it)

if you wanna see pics and a video clip peep my exhaust thread.

magnaflow catback: low deep bassy tone. not ricey loud. Mid-High RPM range for a mild increase in power. You wont have that "cruising on the hwy" tone either. This is loud if you floor it.. but only when u wind it out

Power - 3 (mainly high end)
Loudness - 1-2
Fit - 5 (4 if u have rear sway bar.. it rubs)

Himoto Cat-Back (you can find em on eBay no problem)

The baffle in the resonator came loose but I'm fairly sure the salt over the winter had a large part in that.

Fit: 5 - Bolted right up in about 10-15 minutes. Needed a slight tug to the left so as not to hit the bumper.
Power: 3 - Fairly noticable, especially in the mid range RPM's.
Sound: 5 - Perfect low rumble, pretty quiet during regular driving but sings around 6-7000. I didn't realize how awesome it sounded until my Dad took off in it the other day.

All in all it was a good buy, somewhat pissed with the baffle but **** happens. If I can find another cat-back that fits my car I might try it to compare though.

Thumbs up

Flowmaster kit 17335

Fit:3
Power: 3
Loudness: 3

Fits exactly where the stock muffler was. I did notice some power gains. It is almost as quite as stock when idling but a little louder than stock when you open it up. It does not sound ricey, which is what I wanted. Very happy with it.

update on my review 12/23/06:

apexi world sport I

fitment: 4.5 perfect fit but the muffler would shift around and hit my rear lip over bumpy roads (its not my suspension)
power: 4 after removing my apexi and installing the OEM back on, i noticed the rpms didnt jump as quick. i also did a full throttle test and felt that the apexi wsI didnt take so long in first gear to get to redline compared to OEM.
loudness: 2 quieter than most aftermarket catbacks but louder than OEM of course. the sound of my short ram intake gets louder than my exhaust above 4k rpms and the engine itself gets louder during redline. sounds very mellow and low. i had a buddy drive by in my car and

and speaking of exhaust, a hi flow cat/test pipe really helps. i used to have the megan test pipe and it gave pretty good gains. but it made my apexi sound kind of ricey hence the reason why i removed it. becareful choosing a hiflow cat/test pipe though!

and if your wondering why i put back the OEM exhaust on, because of thieves at my workplace. removing all the eyecandy from my car

Buddy Club Pro-Spec

Buddy Club Pro-Spec Universal Muffler w/ 2.25in bent-pipe cat-back.

FIT=(5) perfect, custom(the piping) fit

POWER=(3.5) a little noticable power gain at mid to high rpm.

SOUND=(4.5) I think it is the perfect volume for my taste. Also, the tone is perfect. Deep and mello.

Top Fuel Catback

Fit: 4 small area where exhaust rattles against frame but easily fixable.
Power: 4 had a hks axleback with the dc race header and it just seemed bottlenecked. with this exhaust it feels alittle better.
Loudness: 4 lower rpms tend to be loud but once you get past 4krpm it gets a little quieter but more agressive. This is with a dc race header.

Tsudo N1 catback
Well lets first say that I was looking for loudness.deepness. and non ricey. I paid like 225 for it and it works wonders. If ur on a low budget def go for this. I mean if u want a greddy or hks name for ur car thats fine with me just get ready to fork out hundreds of dollars. so here is my specs and ratings

Power===3.5 After I installed it I took it for a drive and it took off alot faster than stock
Loudness===5 If u have pesky neighhbors this is not for u. Exhuast is so loud ur ears pop in car and ur voice echos. For me i love it so its all good. Plus when my neiborhos complain I tell them to call the cops. Police cant do anything. PLUIS i am heavily involved within the police dept. so ya
Misc===Very easy to install. Back to muffler is big so it will melt the bumper a bit. GO to a shop and ask them to lower it. Worth ur while
Overall===> 4.5/5 Great investment. Friends and people will like it. Also when ur in malls ur **** will set of lots of car alarms

neither of them are good for long distance highway driving, but if you really insist on those two only, i say go with the evo2, the skunk2 is just... way too loud regardless of what rpm you are.

i use to have the skunk2 on my accord...its not really that loud...
i also got the greddy evo2 ..its louder then the skunk2 on the highway..it sound nice and alll.i travel on 495north alot in the weekend and its not bad..i perfer going with the evo2 full catback then the skunk2 axle.i like how loud the evo2 is on the highway..but i have to turn up my music a little higher then with the skunk2 on the highway..with the skunk2 i can still listen to music at a low volume..
if it just a axle exhaust it doesnt sound loud at all ..unles its a full catback or a axle exhaust with a custom 2.5 pipe all the way...the hks hi-power is loud..but its not if its just on a stock pipe..not loud like it should be..just nice and perfect..

btw i would never drive on the highway with my kids in my car after i got the evo2 on it..

I really like how the evo2 sounds. My friend just put one on his scion xB today and it sounds super good.

either way, whatever I decide on will be a full catback.

HP H23 Header and "High flow cat", There is no cat just a polished expansion chamber. Custom 2.25" aluminized piping and a BORLA Boomer muffler the large one with the 4" tip.

Fit: 2 The header did not fit for ****, still rattles. The custom piping and muffler fit perfect.

Power: 2 A noticeable loss down low but good gains in the upper rpm range.

Loudness: 5 Quiet when the car is not running. Anything above 3g RPM too damn loud.
