performance exhaust/muffler with no sound???
is there an exhaust system out there that has no sound>??
or minimal as much as possible?
'cause i drive family members.. and kids once in a while.. i dont want them to be saying.. what the heck is that damn noise... and blah blah blah.
i've been reading that magnaflow is the one that creates the least sound.. compared to like hks and all....
or is this where a 'silencer' would come to play>??
'cause i heard from a shop that magnaflow does not have a silencer........... ??
any positive comments would help.
and any suggestions on exhaust. - muffler and cat back combo
is that what makes an exhaust system set up? haha....
thx.

I actually put on a HKS, hiper today, really really nice low rumble, not annoying at all! It was a bolt on for a GS400 so they essentially cut it down and made it universal. BUt im pleased with the sound very quiet, but he messed up the install, will get it fixed eventually

Rep Power: 0 the dc sports tcs is the most quiet exhaust sysmte i've ever heard..... at normal revs and driving, the sound is almost like stock.... but if you gun it and hammer the throttle, it get's quite loud..........
with the magnaflow, it's great driving around "normally", but once you heat it up by doing a stretch of the 401 around 130km+, the muffler heats up and get's pretty loud and annoying........
hope this helps.

hmm.. u know what u can do is try to find either an ITR stock exhuast system or even the type S one and u can chop the resonator and mufler and have it customed on to ur car and it will be quiet until u get up there on the rev's!!
hope that help's no other exhaust system i know is quiet except for the DC sport one that supyo has

If you wanna keep it quiet, just get a custom mid pipe with a high flow resonator and have them weld your stock muffler on to it.

I was thinking about doing that on my car... I have a 2 1/4 mid pipe and recently installed a resonator cause I wanna tone the car down but it's still pretty loud. I thought about putting my stock muffler and changing the tip. Would that really quiet it down even with 2 1/4 mid pipe?

Rep Power: 0 Have you decided, Will has it pretty much dead on, GSR, ITR, S' are basically available performance Honda exhaust systems. These are basically performance cars and the engineers of Honda should know what is good and not. And many "aftermarket" mufflers with a lot of nice arent really performance, your amount torque can be substanially affected with its pipe sizing. Too much flow = no low end torque, and vice versa.
