Re: Straight pipe

Are you talking about a valvetronic exhaust? Those are hideously expensive.

Just put a proper exhaust on it. Normally aspirated Honda’s don’t sound good straight piped anyway.

Re: Straight pipe

Get a vibrant muffler, they sound good on Honda’s.


A muffler shop can add a cheap diverter that is manually or electronically actuated.
