Cat-back exhaust help
I just bought a 1995 Integra GS-R 4 door. Man, I love this car. Anyways, it's doing the usual "cat gets a screw lose and vibrates at a certain RPM" thing. The noise is getting very old. So, it's time for a new exhaust system. I am very new to this whole scene, so I'm virtually clueless as to what brand/kind of exhaust to buy. So, any help would be great. Money is somewhat of an option, but I won't mind paying for something if I know it's going to be good. I don't necessarily want a huge amount of horsepower improvement, but I won't turn it away either. My goal here is really to replace the factory to eliminate my noise problems. But, I don't want to replace with the same factory parts. Anyways, please post suggestions, and be gentle on the newbie. I'm learning!

I'd probably search a little more if you haven't and then post most information of your favorite choice and ask and look around for the specs and if anyone who has it ask if they like it. Also if it has any problems with it.

I just did a custom cat back. It's cheaper, and my cat-back sounds better than most exhausts I've heard. Besides, there's more selection with universal mufflers. Another thing you might try is getting a 2dr exhaust and having it lengthened. Hope that makes sense ^_^
First thing I would do is figure out your power goals and how you wish to attain them. Which route are you going to take - NA or FI?
As a general rule, FI'd set-ups usually yield better gains with larger diameter piping - For example, if you plan on turbo charging your car, you may want to look into exhaust systems with 2.5" or maybe even 3" diameter piping.
You wouldn't necessarily want to go that big with a NA set - up. I'm sure an exhaust system with a 2.36" diameter would suffice depending on how mild/wild your set-up is.
Don't just buy something because everyone is doing it or everyone has it - First determine what you want out of your car and then buy the parts that will help realize your goal. You'll save a lot more money in the long run this way.
