Default exhaust question

I have a tanabe racing tuner medallion and its really loud so i put on the silencer that came with it...after puttin it on, figured its still super loud and its just bugging me. Any ideas on what other exhaust system has good power and is real quiet? O yeah i also have a AEM intake if that matters also?

I've heard it in person and gotten a ride in an EG that had it, very quiet, nice performance/looks.

Yep..my friend had it on his Prelude.

Definitely a sick exhaust.

A resonator will not help as much as you think, especially on the Tanabe exhaust.

Id say just go for the Apex'i WS...ive even heard the Greddy SP2 to be loud as ****.

Like others have said, if you want quiet Apexi WS2 is all you need to know. Don't waste your time and money with resonators.

No cat will also make an exhaust system louder than one that does run a cat.

No cat = not carb legal.

Unless this product specifically states: CARB LEGAL. I would not buy it otherwise.

Its the same as how turbo kits will not pass smog unless its a greddy, or edelbrock kit, etc. that specifically say carb legal.
