not sure with an exhuast... however a friend of mine is running his GSR with a header and stock exhaust ... he has a test pipe on it , and yes it sounds very raspy and clingy when he accelerates, and worse when vtec cross's over.
so i am assuming with an exhuast that it may get louder, however the actual sound the canaster makes will hide the raspyness... but then agian no one can tell you what it ill look like until you see for your self and install it.

I fitted a Phase Racing test pipe on my last integra, i also had a DC JDM 4-1 and mugen cat back exhaust, it sounded real raspy from inside the car after fitting the test pipe but from outside it wasn't that noticeable, it did however make the exhaust note a LOT louder.
find a resonated test-pipe, or add an additional resonator somewhere on teh b-pipe and you should get rid of any and all raspyness/bumble bee noises.
I'm running the whole Kteller exhaust WITH a test pipe. Mine is 3" and stainless. I was concerned about noise such as you but have yet to be dissappointed. The sound is nice and mellow...a little deep. Nothing 'fart-can' or raspy.

if your a daily driver man I would just leave her be. You get about 2-3 whp, for this your chance of a noise pollution ticket goes up and you fail emissions...not to mention you pollute our atmosphere more.
IT AIN'T WORTH IT.

how are you satisfied with the world sport 2 exhaust ? and what intake do you have ?
curious because i loved it at first, however it is real quiet... it seems louder at low rpm's almost...
and I have one loud *ss rattle that I cant find (certain RPM ranges only)

Sorry, I can't hear you because of that LOUD exhaust. Can you speak up, please?

I'm just givin the man all the facts, he can make whatever decision he wants to. If he's just a daily driver, why bother. I threw one on for fun, I noticed no to little performance increase, it was just a lot louder. I already get bugged enough by the cops why make it worse?
