Default Quiet Exhaust? Help please

I need help finding either a the quietest exhaust or muffler, I have a b16 with a t3/t4 turbo set up and right now im running a costum 3 inch with an apex n1 muffler and Im getting tired of the sound I wanted as quiet as a can get since its my daily driver even if it means loosing a little power but I dont want to not let the turbo breath either so, help me please? I was even wondering if I can use a stock gsr or civic muffler with a costum 2.5 inch all the way back?

get the giggest magnaflow muffler[ u can fit under ur car ]with a[ resanator] btween your down pipe and muffler......the longer the mufflers the quiter i went with this same setup and mine is almost sound like stock ..as for size id use 2 1/2 u could use stock exhaust but ur turbo will love either 2 1/2 or3'' - 3'' leaves u room for improvment later but if u already have 3'' keep it ..just change muffler and add resanator

I have a Vibrant Racing 3inch straight through Flat Black Muffler and a Vibrant Racing 14" super-quiet resonator on a full 3inch turbo back. Sounds stock, until you get on it.

I have rsr exmag on my GSR/Turbo integra at 8psi and you cant even hear the exhaust, all you can hear is the turbo spoolin and b.o.v , perfect for DD In my Opinion

I have rsr exmag right now too. Do you think that it hurts your performace any? I'm currently building a turbo motor right now. looking to make 300-400whp and have it dd. Was wondering If I would be ok with this exhaust.

Of course it is, anything thats not 3 or 4inch isn't helping the turbo. Im running stock dp, stock cat , 2.5 greddy evo on my rsx and it's killing it im 100% sure. I do have one of the highest dyno's for this mod list but im sure i can get the 325whp easy if i freed it up a lil.

Toss a long resonator on your current 3" and it'll quiet it down considerably. I run 2.5" turbo back with a high flow cat, 22" resonator, and magnaflow straight through and all you can hear is a quiet rumble.

I have a very similar setup on a 2.5" exhaust.. I was fairly quite even before the turbo went on. I'm really happy with the noise level.

I think you should try installing a resonator first.. change the muffler if it's still too loud.

Im sure it hurts performance a little , but i could care less. i can run my car through the gears down my main street and a cop wont raise an eyebrow.

Plus its my DD so i dont want to hear a fart can day in and day out
