Default exhaust - should i get a new one? + new pics of ride

hello,

do you guys think i should get a new exhaust. here are some sound clips of what it sounds like now. i know they are really crappy sound clips, i had to take them with my cell phone while i was driving but i think you can get a pretty idea by listening. this is on my 1993 civic del sol with a b18c1 swap.

sound clip 1 - http://download287.mediafire.c...1.mp3

sound clip 2 - http://download244.mediafire.c...2.mp3

again, sorry for crappy quality. also, here are some decent pictures of my ride, tell me what you think.







^^ my first try at one of those, haha.

alright guys, any help on the exhaust would be great. also, the technical part of this post is to see if i should get a new exhaust or not, lol.

i can not be more than happy to hear that bro! this is a Yonaka Motorsports Full Cat-back exhaust system. the company makes the exhausts for most honda/acura. i do like it but i couldn't tell if it sounded to "ricey" like a fart can, you know? so i do like the exhaust but i didn't want to fall in the ricer category when it comes to exhaust.

I got a big al's special!! 2.25in with a magnaflow REAL muffler. It sounds quiet at idle, when accelerating its a little louder. Then at WOT, my intake is louder than the exhaust. I love it.

...yours sounds pretty good too. I'd keep it!

Why are you so concerned with "not falling into the ricer category"?
Why don't you simply just think for yourself? If you like how your
exhaust sounds, then keep it. If not, get another one. You want the
ricer police on h-t tell you whether your exhaust qualifies as rice? If
you like it man then keep it
