Stock DX is less than 2". Just find an axleback that bolts up to the stock system. Any straight through muffler on a stock exhaust is going to sound ricey, sorry.

you're going to spend money, just so you can make lound noises from your exhaust. Don't do it. You wanna go to 150 at most, that's nearly 1/2 of the catback. Just save it.

Be patient and save some more $$.
Unless the only reason you want an exhaust is for the noise.

your arent going to get any more power out of a straight through muffler on your stock piping. my advice is to put a short ram intake on it and leave your exhaust alone, the car will have a nice deep sound when revving and it wont wake up your nieghbors. or just cut off your muffler.... (just kidding, just kidding heh)

If you do go ahead and get one...make sure you have a resonator put on to get rid of as much of a ricey sound as possible...
