Yeah, 'cause they sell a lot of 500+ HP cars! LOL. . .

So this was a joke, right? I've got to ask, because it's possible Walker makes some 3" pipes for Hondas I just didn't know about.

Performance Peddler on eBay is excellent to deal with for Magnaflow stuff.

my dynomax 3" turbo muffler did not like antilag. it is a now a dynomax 3" balloon muffler.

just said that because im sure most of the 500whp+ guys use antilag.. whether its at the track or on the street to show off how big their ***** are in parking lots.

Stock + e-cutout. I'm not at 500whp, but you can't hear it idle or cruise...

With the turbo and an 18" resonator, it sounds very nice and not too loud. I'd do 2 or add a muffler if I didn't use a cutout.
