I have 00 Civic Ex with a JDM B16 dropped in it. Currently have a thermal exhaust one the car but i was misinformed by the person i bought it from. There is a hole in the side of the muffler portion of it.

Should i stick with the thermal exhaust or does the HKS Hi-Power system top the thermal system? Any other products that i should look into?

I recommend an Apex-i WS2. Amazing tone when gettin' on the gas pedal, quiet when cruising. If you can snag one and afford it, i'd recommend an RS*R Exmag.

WS2 FTW!!

I put one on my hatch a month ago. Perfect for daily driving! Not loud, perfect tone, excellent looks, NOT RICEY!!

Only down side is they are a little pricey, but the quality is awesome.

WS2 is the shiz. I got one on my coupe and like previously stated, has a perfect tone if you dont like loud exhausts.

I don't think the WS2 is very pricey. I got mine brand new for under $500 shipped. At the time, that was cheaper than just about anything else reputable.

And they do sound very good, and are fairly quiet. I kinda think that they sound a *little* bit like a stock 350z, only quieter. When it's idling, the belt noise is louder than the exhaust.

Mine tends to drone and pop a little bit when off throttle at around 4K... which I'm doing all the time because I have a b16 transmission. But it's not loud at all compared to anything other than OEM.

So the overall recommendation i am getting is the Apexi Ws2..thank you for your help.

But if i was looking for a louder exhaust, not ricey....what would i be looking at?

Warhawk

maybe a tanabe medallion or apexi N1. They both are a lil' louder and still have nice smooth tones.


Here is the tanabe

well if you have a header and intake, the WS2 should be plenty loud enough.

it's not that quiet.


Apex-i N1 is kinda ricey... I like the Tanabe though... but I think my WS2 is louder than that... lol
