ive been researching so many exhausts and i can't make a decision. ive been looking for a performance exhaust thats not too loud but loud enough to turn heads. i like the round look but large muffler. ie.. greddy evo 2. but i have a magnaflow oval exhaust right now and love the sound. i wanna keep that sound but up the performance. what other awesome cat backs are there besides the greddy or apex'i? are magnaflow good? i heard theyre alittle ricey... i hate that. sorry its so long but thanks later

Check out DC Sports and Comptech. Both are top quality, a friend has the DC sports and it sounds great. I just bought a Comptech system but haven't installed it yet. GL

i heard the greddy is a really nice exhaust system. is the evo2 really that quiet? can you hear it driving? i mean can the person next or a block away tell that you have a big exhaust on?

exhaust isn't going to do shit for performance. If you like the magnaflow you have now keep it. Magnoflow makes awesome exhaust systems.

skunk2. great sound, (2 options with removable silencer btw) great looks, and 1-3 hp gain past 4500 rpm..

the reason i was looking at more exhausts was to openthe doors for more performance. i/h/e can relaly open those doors.

you can gain a couple of hp from an exhuast. any first year honda tech will tell you the same.
you lose a little on the low end, but pick it up on the high end. (of the rpm scale i mean)
people who disregard exhuast b/c of "no hp gains" arent the people you want to listen to. every single hp counts, and if you do enough things that give you just a little, soon you get alot. add that to some real mods, and you see how just a little something can give you the edge, hp wise.

yah, open the doors to a whopping 10-12 horsepower. I/H/E will roughly cost $1000 you can do a custom turbo setup for that much.

every single hp counts when you have a track monster capable of pulling sub 11 second passes. For a street car 250-300 whp is just fine. And that's easily accomplished if you save your money for FI instead of pissing it away on I/H/E

i think tadder salid was just asking what are some good exhausts go maybe he could turbo? dont just go and do anything to your car, do it right.
