I have a full Spoon catback on my EK... but my camera is out of commision. Real clean, small tip, and very deep sound [I left my cat on].

I also like the DC5R muffler on an EK... a guy who lives near me has one and it's really quiet and clean looking.

Got it from R and D Motorsports in Charleston SC for about $700
VERY deep sound [kept my cat] and not flashy at all - just really clean.

That pic of the ek you put on since it was a cat back did it come angled like that or did you have to do so fabrications to get it like that? Does that Ek have its stock motor?

What's the best exhaust that doesnt make the car sound like a 'buzzy honda'
I generally like a deep, smooth rumble

I have the sport compact magnaflow cat back. I really like it, I have gained some mid and top end power. (only seen on the dyno).
it has a nice deep throaty sound too.
it isn't the lightest of cat backs out there but for the money it was worth it.
no complaints so far.

I have a meineke custom exhaust. Its 2.5in all the way back into a universal oval muffler. I painted the can black, it looks great IMO, sounds good IMO, and I dont get hassled by anyone.

I have got this exhaust. I love the way it looks. I have yet to hear it, because my car is off the road. I can't wait. Good quality stuff .
