Default Exhaust help...

I have a 94 Del sol, s coupe, but engine was dying so I got the swap ... it is currently being installed, but the exhaust is oem... so I need to upgrade it. I am interested in the Apex, Greddy, or Spoon. Prices vary but I want something that will last and I am a daily driver so I need something a bit silent but will give me the performance that I need. Thanks. BTW my budget is around 500

what motor are you installing? are the headers JDM? i ran into issues when i found out my motor had JDM ITR Headers, you'll have to get a custom flange + gasket for it! i just had my muffler guy welt it straight onto mine, told him if something goes out i'll replace it all lol

I have a b16a swap done. I currently have stock headers, stock cat, and stock exhaust. Giving me a huge back pressure. If anyone wants to know what it is.. you can ask me. Drove it for 3 days and having such a high back pressure definately going to blow out either my pistons or my exhaust piping.

you will be fine for a little while. you will fry the rings if you continue to drive with the stock piping. if you want quiet then try to go for apexi world sport exhaust or you can get the rsr exmag which is perfect for low key in my eye's.

just google the rsr exmag for the del sol.

thats what im getting for my sol
