Question about exhaust

Does anyone have HKS sport system installed?
What about the flowmaster system?
I'm looking for a black exhaust/muffler cause having a stainless can sitting side ways on my car look retarded to me.

I have heard the flowmaster system on an import before and it doesn't sound that good. Kinda buzzy and raspy throughout the powerband. The HKS system looks stock and almost sounds stock...just a little louder. If you don't like the stainless steel look why not just paint it flat black??

88CiViC_DX has a flowmaster and you are right, sounds buzzy and raspy.

My car has a flowmaster on it, it was there when i bought it. I think it sounds pretty good. I haven't noticed it being really raspy or anything. It doesnt sound whiney either like a lot of exhaust systems ive heard.

AH HKS! I wanted this system SO bad for my car because you can obviously tell by my user name what kind of theme I wanted. When I ordered it, the supplier said he could get it for me in 3 weeks. 4 weeks went by and I call back and he said " duh, i think its on backorder or sumpin". What a reject. I was stuck going with thermal. I dont care for the Greddy that much because its a little more expensive and if Im gonna have a flashy exhaust I would like it to have a nice tone. The greddy isnt that loud at all.

Wait, so the HKS one looks like stock!?!? GREAT! Thats what i am gonna get then, i was gonna get the Apexi WS because its not loud and its kidna Low Profile, but now you say there is an exhaust that looks stock! Well, hell, i'm gonna get that then!

yes, yes it is... In the high rev's. I think if i get my resonater replaced it would quiet it down a lil and make it less buzzy.

Hmmmm looks stock seems like the thing for me, how is the performance with HKS exhaust is it compariable to thermal and greddy and dc. If it is up with those guys iam very interested in it does anyone know if it shows a good performance record or is it down in the low gains but just changes the sound of the car.

there is no real answer. as travis...he'll tell ya. it's kinda state wide motto :if you don't like the weather...wait 5 mins and it'll change.
on avg. it starts in Nov. it's pretty iffy about this year. it got cold quick. this morning i woke up and saw it's starting to frost on roof tops. cold doesn't = snow though.
just be sure to ask me how the weather is before you drive up!!! :D

geez thats what I want my civic to look like just like that, man I dont wanna be a poser but I like that look a lot. So does anyone know if the HKS system is performance wise up with thermal and 500$ dollar exhaust systems damn expensive. But it would help with my choice of exhaust, if someone could reply me :D .

What she was trying to say is that I can use a glasspack as a resonator. Since my exhaust is too loud and buzzy, a glasspack would help a lil with getting rid of that.

I was just joking around. Would that help it? I just have a glasspack on my, no resonator and it is too loud also. Had to get rid of the resonator cause it went bad, and didn't have the money to replace it.

yes a glasspack would help quiet a loud exhaust. but (as 88CiViC_DX mentioned) don't just run a glasspack solo. it doesn't sound good and it wasn't ment to be run that way...it will wear out on you quicker.
