The sound is nice when you are cruising but when you accelerate hard it tends to be loud. What do you expect with a straight-through muffler. I like how it looks- Its clean and flush with the rear. It doesnt give your car that ricey look with a huge and loud exhaust coupled with a slow ass engine.

do you remember where you got the muffler cause thats a good price?

to anyone who has this exhaust. can u see any difference with it? how much HP u think it adds

I bought the Fireball from Shinestreet in Carson, CA (www.shinestreet.com). It was listed at $200, i think, but I managed to bump it down a little. The larger Fireball was going for around $250. After I had the entire exhaust system done I did notice a change in power at the top end especially on the freeway. When I'm cruising on the freeway and need to pass someone, I punch the gas and we take off. Not like a racecar, of course. It has a little more push at the top end. Anything is better than stock. The muffler also comes with an optional baffle for around $25, i think. Check out AKT USA's website to find dealers in your area (www.aktusa.com)

I had this muffler on my car for a few thousand miles. It dynoed with a 4 hp gain over stock on my '99 G20.
I thought it was too loud for a G20 but probably OK if you want your car to sound like a fixed up Honda. My friend who has the 5Zigen now on his '99 with intake and headers got lots of noise tickets.
Another problem I thought with the 5Zigen is that it scrapes on speed bumps and driveways even at stock ride height.
I replaced the 5Zigen with the Remus and now the car is as quiet as stock and best of all the Remus dynos the same as the much louder 5Zigen. No more scraping either!

CEC Wheels distributes Remus in the US. I had the Remus on my P10 G20, it was great too. For the P10, they run $300-$350. I think any place that sells CEC wheels will also sell Remus.
