i have a megan header on my 2000 prelude and they work great... no problems so far. came with bolts gaskets and everything. so i guess if the exhaust is the same quality you wont have any problems.

Megan tapers at the cat. Thermal and Tsudo are the only 2 I know of that do not. You can get Tsudo exhausts on Ebay for less than $250 shipped.

Default I Recommend Getting This Exhaust

I used to have the megan racing exhaust for my 5th gen but sold it to my friend because i needed money for some personal needs at the time.. ANYWAY.. When I had the Megan Racing exhaust system I liked it very much.. NO it did NOT taper.. It was a very good quality exhaust, deep throaty sound, installation was flawless, mandrel bent and everything.. and yes it was 2.5 inches all the way through.. the piping's HUGE.. When I sold it to my friend he liked it.. His brother that also has a 5th gen which had an evo2 exhaust on said he liked the Megan Exhaust's sound better than his.. I'm neutral about that comment because I like both exhausts but megan racing's sound is pretty damn nice.. and yes i'ma say it again.. I had the exhaust for awhile and it did NOT taper.. I recommend this exhaust if you wanna save some money because this exhaust is just like the other ones.. might be better i donno.. hell it looks just like the skunk 2 exhaust for the 5th gen.. for all i know they might be made at the same place but branded differently.. anyway here's the pic of the Megan Racing Exhaust on my car..



sorry it doesn't show it completely.. but you get the idea.. it looks nice IMO.. but now i have stocks back on.

I have it as well, and I love it.

My friend also has it on his F22b Accord, and he loves it.


If you want to hear it, head on over to http://www.speedaddictionracing.com and look at the Videos section for either of our cars. Very pleased with the throttle response I got from the exhaust, as well as the deep tone. for MR!

ya,why does it stick out so much? On bigtimlikewhoa car, it looks like a good fit but on urs it sticks out quite a bit...hopefully mine comes out good after all and hopefully the whole 2.5inch thing is a good combination for otherwise a stock car (with intake offcourse)
