Does anyone know of an exhaust (cat-back) that gives the most horse power and looks and sounds good?[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG]

I would have to say that in HP increase, the Tanabe Racing Medallion would get my vote...
but I don't think they are going to make one for our cars, or hasn't yet...who knows.

What do you mean you can feel the boost? Are you running a turbo?

unless someone on here has dynoed the exhasut systems then you really cant tell which one will give you the most HP increase.

Come on, i not a newbie, just to the new civic! I just don't want to do the trial&error myself! Now don't give me any of the "stock" crap.

the cat-back i personally think it will give a better image over all on the car, but not sanificant power increause, like the inkate, u might get 1 or 2 outta it, i remember some other members mentioned a mag did a dyno test with aftermarket i/h/e and got 5 horse out of it.. that's FIVE! our engines were tweaked by honda, pushing out as much it can as it is, if you want real horsepwoers, bolt on ar enot gonna give you that.

wow..
just pick something that looks cool and sounds good..because there is almost NO incerease in performance by getting a new exhaust....
if you are strictly looking for performance mods, dont waste the time and money on exhasut..that will get you nowhere fast....by doing i/h/e you will be lucky to get 10WHP I'd guess....and will you really feel that difference?
mabey, but doubtful...it's a psychological thing...the noise will make you think it feels faster..and you will probobly try to convinse yourself that its faster having spent 500+ on exhaust that gives you 1-2whp..if that...
Just my 2 cents...
