Yeah....I never like that style ither...

The quieter the better, trust me. Tanabe = high pitched girl fart. I used to want the largest, loudest fart can in the world until I drove a car with an intake, header, exhaust, and no cat. I seriously didn't even want to take it past 3000rpms or I would go deaf... it sucked so bad. Ask anybody, having a nice deep mellow tone rolling out the muffler will keep you happy forever. The Greddy EVO sounds like this and I would trade my Apexi N1 for it any day, and mine's a great exhaust.

High pitch girl fart??? Sorry Ricochet but this is the one time I have to totally disagree with you on boh statements. IMHO the Greddy EVO is the riciest sounding exhaust out there. My boy has it on his LS and I swear it sounds exactly like a weed whacker. Also I've NEVER heard anyone describe Tanabe like that and I bought it for the exact reason that is does not sound high pitched or ricey. Thank you.

I am not a big fan of Greddy at all. Both of the people I know with it have it on integras, and both of them have the muffler completely rusted out, and this is having the exhaust for only around a year, it also sounds like ass (probably cus of the rust). IMO, this is one case where you DO NOT get what you pay for. I recommend Magnaflow, 5zigen, HKS, and Tanabe.

Maybe it was because that Tanabe was on an older DX with no other mods at all... who knows. My buddy has a turbo EX with a Greddy exhaust so maybe it sounds good because he's got forced induction or something.

That's what I meant...I want it to be a low sound yet still have somewhat of loudness. I'm hearing alot of good things about the 5Zigen Fireball and the Skunk2 Megapower...

As far as exhausts I have first hand experiece with......My girl has a 5 Zigen fireball and it sounds ricey to me but looks killer. I have a Tanabe and love the way it sounds but hate the clearancee and size. My boy's 00 Si has a Skunk2 and that shit is deep as f*ck and loud. You already know what I think about the EVO and yes 2 cams totally change the exhaust tone compared to 1. I can tell is a car is swapped just buy the exhaust tone so I know which ones would be the best runs

Yea I think I am going to go with that Skunk2 Megapower...I haven't heard ONE bad thing about it. Everyone says it has a nice low, loud sound. PLus I have an Si as well (2000 also) so if it's pretty good on there it'll be good onmine as well...thanks everyone

How is that price for the Skunk2 Mega power exhaust?

Also does anyone have pictures of a half-polished and polished exhaust?

thanks
