Re: The OFFICIAL DC Squad --Version 3--
lol i dont mind the sound some of the larger exhaust make. i personally like a nice deep tone. but i hate the look of angled big mufflers, and usually they are too loud for me, i'd really never be able to get by w/o getting pulled. i kinda whisper by the cops now. they see my hid's and my paint and think 'new car' then realize im just a undercover ricer

Ya my car is definitelyyyyy not suited for my job. When i started my car was higher and i got confident since i know every single road in my town so i lowered my car more. And now that i went b-series my header is soooo smashed up. Im in the process of selling the car now cuz i feel bad beating it up so much cuz its a super nice car.

Yeah I thought it out and now I'm going to finish selling some of my parts and hopefully just get on non crashed ITR. Thanks for the input guys...
oh yeah and buddy club spec 2 FTW! I deliver pizza(not the best job but tips come thru and pay bills) and I would always get complaints for this one dude saying i wake him up and if I could stop driving by the alley .

Vibrant flat black muffler with 2.5" piping sounds good. Cops don't even look in my direction when I pass them. Yet I try my best to avoid them.

Unless you know how to tune, you will have to go find a tuner. Find out whoever in your area is a reputable tuner and talk with him. He may only use certain programs. You can use Crome, it's cheap and does everything Hondata does, thats if the tuner uses it. One of the tuners here won't touch Crome, only deals with Hondata, AEM or Neptune, yet another tuner here prefers Crome as it's cheap and simple.
I believe the Skunk2 Tuner 2 camshafts still require upgraded valvetrain, despite not being as harsh on the valvetrain as the pro series, and they don't need to be degree'd. Supertech valvetrain cost less than Skunk2 and is very dependable. As far as injectors, you can probably go with 310cc or bigger.
It also depends on what your trying to get out of the motor. The tuner 2 cams will give you a lot more top end. But the pro series will give you more mid-range than the tuner 2's, but because the pro series are so harsh on the valvetrain, you have to upgrade the valve train. I believe Skunk2 on their website says that for the tuner series, upgraded valvetrain recommended but not required. Whereas, it says for the pro series, upgraded valvetrain REQUIRED.

I love my loud car, hahah, I also live in an area where cops do not care about anything pretty much. I wouldn't mind getting a Spec 2 to be honest.
