well , long story short , x -volkwagen driver of 10 years now i have a bought a 1995 integra to be my new it/ice race car for this year and of course not knowing anyhting about this car i need help!!!!!!!!!!


1 st off , i have concern with the exh , i will be adding a header to the system but unsure as to what muffler to use , i want it lound but not "ricey" any suggestions? borla maybe or supertrapp?

2) the car im building is a 4 door( its all i could find) is there a huge weight diffrence between it ans the 2 door?

3) any other ice race guys in here>?

 

Becareful of having the exhaust loud. Especially if you ever want to bring the car to autocrosses or HPDEs, the sound limits are not very high. Louder doesn't mean faster. But I also understand that you don't want it to be extremely quite; there is something a bit fun with having a car you can hear.

I have a flow master muffler on my IT car.

 

your choise of mufflers are pretty much endless. a few brand that comes to mind are

Magnaflow (best value IMO)
HKS
apexi
tanabe
skunk2
greddy
...the list goes on, all of them make either a cat-back system for your car and/or offer a universal muffler to fit custom applications.

maybe shouldn't have bought a Honda?

My race car exhaust is: header -&gt; straight resonator -&gt; dump.

The sound it makes? Glorious.
