with my sohc dx engine the medallion will still sound good?? if i get the fireball, will it sound like a bee in a coffee can? i also don't want my car to sound like a fartmobile either.

I have the medallion and it sounds great through out each gear. I had the fireball and it sounded like a bumble bee. Go for the medallion if you have the money.

Tanabe on my CRX ...best Ive seen/heard.

But on the EH.....I dont like how it comes straight...and Fireball looks better IMO. A dyno is only way to tell how each performs.

Go custom piping with a muffler if money is an issue.
