If you want something subtle looking, just get a stock "style" system, just in a larger size.

I have a 2.5" system to an ES Oval muffler (looks like a stock muffler mounted sideways and all), with a plain piece of 2.5" piping coming to the edge of the rear bumper. It looks like stock, just larger. Make sure you get a resonator though (the bigger the better) to cut out the buzzing noise that's notorious with our cars.
Mine is pretty quiet, until you go WOT. Then it just sounds mean


Example of how that setup looks painted flat black:

it seems like to me that my headers and cat from the b18a1 run the same line as the CRX's so could i get a cat back system for the crx?

Do you have a 88-91 Civic? If so then you can use a CRX catback but you must trim a few inches off of the midpipe. The curves are all in the same spot, just on the Civic the midpipe is a couple inches longer.
