quick question:
will a new exhaust on an automatic car make a difference in horsepower?

Re: new exhaust?

what kind of exhaust? like a fart can? if so, it dont add too much... if a full exhaust from a place like greddy... yes... since yours is an automatic, you wont feel it as much as a manual because it mostly help with top end power..

Re: new exhaust?

yea... it adds power, but IMO it sounds dumb, because instead of bwaaaaaaaaaa <shift> bwaaaaaaaaaa, you get bwaaaaaaaaaawaaaaaaaaaa. but if you want it go for it. more power to you. stay away from tsudo. maybe get skunk 2 or greddy evo

Re: new exhaust?

OK children lets lay this out pretty simply I'll give you the benifit of the doubt and I want to hear why because your both leaving me with a headache.


Yes on any car a better made exhaust sytem will free up some horse power as touched on before if doing so getting a full catback system is the best a muffler only on a honda does nothing but make noise. Doing a full catback nets around 5WHP on stock /near stock honda so don't expect the world to change but better then stock.

to see the most gains upgrading your intake and header will also help.

what model sol are you whats your price range?

that will make it hard with a budget like that try minakie or some muffler shop like that.

go with 2 1/4 inch piping a resanotor of sorts and a box muffler of your pick.

it'll sound little louder then stock good and flow well.
