No flame intended. But seriously sell that thing. it's the equal of pep boy $30.00 muffler. sure it looks nice and all but that's it. save your money for something better.

probably worth like 80-100 new. labor for install is like 30-50. if the pigs dont like exhausts, thatll be the one at the top of their list. its gonna be loud. its up to you.. i wish i had gotten what i have now, a used greddy catback, then installing a straight through canister like that.. mostly for legality reasons, otherwise i liked the sound and the performance on the highway. of course with the greddy, i get the whole catback mandrel bent, its much quieter, looks better, and performs better.

i used to have a apexi on my 00 Si and loved it
you think i should go with that on my 98 integra gsr???
sell that p.o.s unless you just want to drive your car around farting all over the place. i really hate it when people just put mufflers on instead of an exhaust. it sounds like ****.
I think the best exhaust is a good aftermarket catback with the muffler replaced with a turbo muffler or something similar...That way you get the good flow, but the nice quite *not cop attracting* sound. Paint it black to blend in even better.
there is a reason why he sold it to you
sell it and get a real exhaust (full cat back)
u won't see barely any gains with that muffler

Bomz exhausts usually sell on ebay for about $65. You can put it on your car if you want, but remember you get what you pay for.
hey bro..it's totally ur deal... remember you're asking opinions of others'..some say sell it..pos and get rid of it..right? well **** that..do what u want. that muffler will be aight, it's def gonna be loud...i have a tom's motorsport fireball muffler that's a 'knockoff' of the 5zigen...i bought it cuz my tanabe muffler got jacked, and it works fine..sounds great and payed half of what i payed before!
do your thing, it all works the same!

just get 2.5 inch piping from the cat to the muffler and u'll be fine, people on this board often will tell you that u won't gain anything from such a exhaust, but u'll hardly see any gains from any exhaust anyways so just go the cheap route..
