Need Help Choosing Exhaust
Hey guys this is actually my first post with Honda-Tech. I'm jumping into the stance scene this winter (dropping my 04 7th Gen Accord on coils and a bunch of other mods) and one thing I want to do is put an aftermarket (most likely universal) muffler on her, not so much for performance but for a bit of sound and stance. Since I'm not trying to throw my accord into any races, I'm wondering what direction you all think I should go with this mod. I've looked at MagnaFlow mufflers for around $70, so around that price range is what I'm lookin for. What do you guys think? Any suggestions would be cool.

The best advice someone told me is this.
WS2 = done.
Apexi WS2 is all you need to know. I've done Magnaflow this and that. Add resonator this and that.
So my advise is this. Don't waste your money on the others systems. WS2 = Done.
**There is a reason why they cost more.

Definitely a little more pricey but I've seen some bad-*** cars with Apexi exhausts. Any more ideas somewhere between the Magna Flow and the Apexi? I'll definitely keep looking into the Apexi though...

I guess that depends on you and your ears. Some guys want it loud. Some guys don't mind drone. Some guys ears can't hear it. so if this is your first exhaust, it's good to do more research.
For me, there is only WS2 or none. From my experience, I ended up paying more than 2X as much if I was to go with WS2 to start. And I've done this on 3 cars. So that's me. Magnaflow sounds good at day one, and month one. After a while, it gets to you and on longer trips. I would welcome in on my weekend car (don't have one BTW), For my daily car, I need something more toned down.

I would look into Megen OE RS exhaust as something in the middle. I can't comment on the quality 5 years down the line, that's because I never own one. Read mostly good about it, or less negative. Not saying Magaflow is bad at all. Just not for my ears.
