From what I can tell, at least on a D17 its purely cosmetic. Personally I think that the angled exhaust is a wee bit ricey, but thats just my two cents.

yea...its cosmetic. I like mine going straight out vs the angle.

i have the megan racing cat back that angles up and out, the only downside is that if you get a lip kit or body kit it will burn it so you have to get the kit cut out a little bit, that f-er burned my rear body kit, i cut it out and its fine now but i stil hav a lil black **** on my muffler, i think it looks nice and not ricey at all

do what you like. Don't care what other people think. If they think its retarded then let them think that. Everyone has different taste

i like the angle but it only looks good on certain cars on a civic its just rice now some day when i get my scooby itll have an angled exhaust

Mine looks like that too.

Slanted exhausts only look good with a complementary bumper. Exhausts that are made to be slanted usually tilt upwards as well. All the imitators just kick them to the side.

how many hangers are on it? take it to a muffler shop, they will cut those hangers off, then weld new ones on, and make the ****er stationary, for ~30 dollars.

so yea, i guess we're getting off MY subject now, but its all good, im gonna do w/ the slanted tanabe style muffler, if i dont like it, i'll change it to straight, but as for my kit burning or whatever, i dont plan to get a kit, i plan to get a lip kit, so we'll see what happens, i'll post pics tomorrow after im done, thanks 4 ur guys opinion btw

i ordered a megan catback.i've seen pics of it straight on a 7th gen vic. will it be angled or straight?

 
Rep Power: 272

the shop i got my exhaust put on told me not to do that since the car is FWD. You want to allow some movement of the exhaust because the torque from the engine will cause it to give a little movement and possibly damage something...I told him whatever. I have just the two rubber factory hangers on the muffler and whatever other hangers in between. (is there much truth in what the shop said? doesn't seem like it could damage anything, especially in a slow A/T civic)

its gonna burn your lip kit too.

 
Rep Power: 257

OK, IM BACK!!! i got it installed .......STRAIGHT!!!, i thought about it, and about the lip kit (RS kit btw) and i have a 4dr, and it wouldve looked pretty lame in a way if it was slanted, so i got it straight,

woot! good choice! i dont think it looks good... my friend has an apexi n1 with custom piping on his 240 and its slanted and up... looks soo gay imo... but he bought the car that way... he doesnt like it either.... but it does have some advantages... like bottoming out... itd be hard to fuch that thing up with it up like that... but it looks gay...

tilted looks better IMO but is a bit overdone nowadays.

 
Rep Power: 283

it wont look right on our cars...it only looks good on certain cars.....like supras and eclipse/talons.
