I would go with Greddy or Skunk2 or apexi or HKS

Check around the forum, this has been asked several times and several answers have been given. Get a Greddy exhaust and you'll be more than happy with it.

i am going with greddy

Depends on how much you wanna spend and what kinda noise you want etc...etc... I was looking at the greddy apexi and invidia. I saw someone on the road with an invidia exhaust and it just sounded great so I went with it. Did a crap load of research before i got it though since it was the first thing I did to my car.

its manufacture not market btw.

Are you sure? I'm almost positive its market.

I always thought it was market also, but who knows, could be wrong.

i think market too

who fuckin cares!
jdm = from japan.

its japanese domestic market by the way and as far as the exhaust depends on what style you want i would go with apexi hks rsr or buddy club i dislike greddy all of the greddy i had rusted out in a year but the new titanium greddy's are cool but pricy i have a apexi on my civic and love it onmy other civic im either going rsr or buddy club

i know alot of sites say market on it, but they are wrong, i know it dont really matter much, but it truly is manufacture.

It actually depends on how you are looking at it. Companies see it as market, as in if you go to Apex's japanese website they have a ton more products than if you go to the US site. For most of the hip JDM mad tite collectors it is manufacture, since DC sells headers in japan it wouldn't be as cool to have a DC header that is marketed in Japan, as it would to have some shittier head just because it was made there.

as far as your exhaust is concerned... im going with the invidia system fro my 96 accord. if u like a deep and aggressive tone and good performance and price, its the way to go

hit up www.invidiaexhaustsystems.com and call.. i hear they got deal goin on where its 450 plus FREE SHIPPING... cant beat that

who fuckin cares!
jdm = from japan.

im gonna have to agree with him
