I have a Magnaflow 2.5" oval muffler and I love it, although I've heard some 6th gens that sounded absolutely amazing with Flowmaster 44s.
In my opinion, to get the best sound, you'll want larger diameter piping like most catback systems offer. It makes the sound deeper and less "farty" i guess. However, big piping makes your car pretty loud, so be warned if you go that route, lol

Different car will sound different even with the same muffler. So K's magnaflow will sound different in his 2005 civic than towguy87's 98.

Generally, the rule of thumb is any good manufacture like magnaflow, hks, greedy, etc...

Anything you find on eBay is pretty much junk, especially if it had the word "style" in there.

Stock is good. Nice and quiet. Rip out the intake resonator box if you want some bass at WOT

How much did it cost for the magnaflow oval muffler? Im thinking of getting one welded onto my catback piping. Tired of the fart can.

My muffler was only about $75 from Anderson Auto on Amazon.com
Go to Magnaflow's website and find the size that you need, nab the part number, then search Amazon and Ebay for the part # and you'll find them much cheaper than you would from an actual dealer.
My Magnaflow exhaust tip was actually a worse value than the muffler I got, lol

I have a Vibrant Streetpower muffler and I love it. Stealth flat black and it's the perfect sound wise. It has a nice low tone that is there when you want it, but it's extremely quiet if you stay out of it and are just cruising. It was about $100 if I remember right. I have it on a 7th gen, but my friend had one on an EF hatchback and that sounded just as good.

Sleepy, before you junk of ebay exhausts listen to this


ebay 4-1 header, ebay catless (small resonator) downpipe, and 3 inch catback, sounds good to me.

Yeah, but we're talkin' 6th gnes here.

Actually, some of them sound okay without a full catback setup. I personally like the sound of this one. (would sound better it it was a twin cam :P)

and if you're looking for high quality mufflers that aren't very loud, some great ones are the Apexi WS2 and Yonaka catback.

I also like the sound of this one Generally, the rule of thumb is any good manufacture like magnaflow

Lol he said no fart can, if you want it to sound decent, 3.5" tip with a flowmaster 40 and 2.5" pipe from your cat back lol

The red one in the video is on stock piping, but with a larger diameter muffler. I have a friend with an identical setup and it sounds about the same.
But I still recommend catbacks for deeper sound.

And some fart cans look okay. As long as you don't ever buy glasspacks for a Civic... ever.

did you purchase the 2.25 or 2.50 muffler? im looking into the same one
