Dynomax custom system. Quiet if you have a 26" + resonator and a cat. I had that setup but then took off cat and resonator and loud as hell. Also lost the low growl

What about the Apexi WS(world sport)cat-back?

"The world Sport Concept is Apex's interpretation of how each vehicles exhaust should have looked and performed right from the factory.Designed with the daily driver in mind ,this exhaust series focuses on drawing out mid-range torque and engine response for optimal drivability on the street.The styling is subtle and elegant ,but still retains characteristics of it's racing origin.The result is an affordable cat-back exhaust system that makes the daily commute more enjoyable." http://www.apexi-usa.com

The Apexi one is very quiet, but doesn't really look stock. It's full stainless and has a 3" tip.
I own one and I love it.

The hks sport exhaust for civic/crx is the most "stock" one of the bunch, but I think the piping may be 50mm...something worth looking into...

Here's a pic: http://www.optauto.com/webstore/prod...=yes&dept=1203

Watch out...people will usually try to rape you on this exhaust...I've seen a USED one go for 500...and the seller claimed that it retailed at 800!! I doubt this is true...but look into it.

have 2.25" piping made for you at a muffler shop, run it thru a flowmaster or magnaflow muffler.

the HKS looks stock, but check the description.... "As with all HKS exhaust systems, the Sport exhaust systems are designed for maximum performance, improved appearance, and aggressive sound"

curious how "aggressive" the sound is.

Does the Apex'i WS fit the CRX, or just the Hatchie?

Yeah, I wonder if you could just lop off about 6-10" from the straight section to make it fit a CRX. Does anyone have the new Tanabe super racing medallion (the all stainless one)? Is it as loud as the previous powder-coated version?

get a magnaflow resonator, an ES muffler, and custom 2.25 piping. the ES muffler looks just like stock, and its quiet, but its a straight-through design.
