Ouch man. Now i have a walmart exhaust? It actually sells in JC Whitney Sport Compact for $450, and $620 in another book I have. They sell cherry bombs at walmart, that just sucks that you say its a walmart exhaust, even though it has the gayest name ever, it does sound better than greddy.

hey sorry bud... no i'm still getting it even though the name sounds sorta gay. i'll have one on my teg once the snow melts. anyhoo herer is my speach;

when it comes to performance, and i'm talking TRUE performance, the name shouldn't mean anything, all of us stuck in the brand name race wanting the same thing everyone else has just because its cool when the fact is in the end it may not sound as nice or perform as well, this my friend is were the true performace minded individual shines as he purchases little heard of performance parts that will blow the socks off everyones else parts for the masses. Thanks you and God Bless America

Oh its alright, i just wan't sure if you were bashing the fact that i have it or if you were bashing the name. I completely agree with ya 100% on your "speech". Everyone now-a-days thinks they're hardass because they have big brand name everything, and sometimes the reality is, it's not always the best. I have an ebay intake for 30 bucks, why spend 180 on an injen or aem for 1hp more or a carb sticker (which i dont need in MI). And people have told me my exhaust was the deepest sounding on a 4 banger they've ever heard, yet it still sounds mean as hell at high rpm. Anyway, good call on the speech.

Yea, I have a CAI made by my buddy that used to own a shop. He put it on free when I swapped in the motor. I don't need the AEM name, my "custom" one works just as well, and costed a hell of a lot less...free!!! On the topic of the thundermuff sound, it's just sad they had to stick a 5 inch tip and a dumb name like thundermuff on an exhaust that as you said actually sounds decent on a 4-banger (I haven't actually heard a thundermuff before. If it has a low tone, thats good, a lot of exhaust systems, even the name brands, have a high pitch sound that is just loud and annoying).

i went and dug though my parents recycling bin and found a 5" coffee can and stuck it on my tegs tail. it acctully doesn't look that bad on an integra, it seems to fit. although it looks alittle big on my civic. 5" tip.... oh well, i'm just gonna deal with it. plus doesn't the thundermuff come with a carb sticker? the cops around here are starting to put out court orders making ppl pull there exhausts off there cars. I know of two different dudes that its happened to now in town. how gay is that now? I would love to get pulled over with it on and wave the carb sticker in the cops face.

I bought my airmass system on ebay which was meant for a 92-95 civic ex, so I just brought it to an exhaust shop, had an extra foot of pipe welded on, and stuck it on my 98 HX. It was brand new and came in the airmass box, but there wasn't a carb sticker. No need for one in MI, but anyway, im almost 100% positive the airmass system is street legal, as it says next to the item in summit sport compact or jc whitney sport compact (one or the other). You could try cutting that page out, or maybe e-mail holley and ask them for one. But I could be wrong, since airmass has 2 systems, the warlock, which i know is street legal, and it's the less expensive, less powerful of the two, and the thundermuff i think is legal too, but double check.

A coffee can is gay, not a law on annoying ass exhaust. Damn ricers ruined for everyone. The ricers I mean is the ones who rev their shit every time they pass you or come up next to you - fucking morons. There was a guy doing that in a S2000 the other day to me, LOSER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think its more about the noise then a CARB sticker

If you want to hear good sounding exhaust(actually open headers) come down to our shop while me break in a built olds 455 -we have to run the engine @ 1500-2000 RPM for 20 minutes and we aint putting the exhaust on til last!!!!!

[JakeDrummer]

i donno if your bashing my visual proportioning that i did with the coffee can or what. the entire reason i did it was to see if the thundermuff tip would look in proportion to the rest of the car. I'm not that gay of little cheap ass punk that i would weld a coffeecan on my tip so that i would look cool. I have an integra after all bud, not a $500 rusted out 88 civic 4 door auto. So i am by no means gonna cobble something up, do it right the first time or don't do it at all is my motto. anyhow if i took yah wrong sorry but i'm just saying i'm not a cheep little punk. but yeah i agree about all the stuped ricers who drive by me and rev. that gets anoying having alittle overgrown bumble bee buzz every time you pass a riced out civic. Those ppl should be the ones that get pulled over for being a jackass. This dude i know who had to get rid of his system was just pulled over going down the road. he wasn't reving someone or running in 2nd gear at 45mph. he was just crusing along at 45mph in 5th gear in prelude and they pulled him over. now he has a court order that he has to sell his system in 30 days. now thats gay isn't it?

[JakeDrummer]

yeah i checked all of the airmass stuff is 50 state legal with carb stickers. I found that right on the Holley web site. but yah good idea about printing something out for some backup. the cops in this town hate imports i'm begining to think.

It really depends on what systems you want from 5ZIGEN. May I remind you they are exhaust specialists for over 20 years and are ranked in the top 3 in Japan. If you want street legal(JASMA) systems, they are certainly going to be quieter than the sports muffler line they have which is for circuit use.
