I'm looking to buy a new exhaust for my 2005 honda civic vp coupe, im looking for somthing with a nice deep subtle tone, i dont want anything thats going to make my car sound like a weed wacker, and price is an issue also, i dont want to spend a whole lot, but i understand you get what you pay for, so reasonably priced suggestions would be great.

thanks

 

this has been covered alot. so use the search feature. its the red buttom upper right and side.

im currenly using a ravin performance exhaust but im not impressed with how its lasted over time. so im thinking of switching to greddy.

 

The tanabe medalion concept g is not all that expensive but is well worth it. Heres a link to it.

Says its under 93 db i am puting my on saturday so il post a video clip of how it sounds. (Also installing header and midpipe as well)

 

don't spend too much on a exhaust..
i've heard a sound clip of an es tuning muffler w/ resonator on 2.25in piping. it's not bad doesn't sound ricey at all.
as for me I just dislodged my muffler. sounds really deep and not loud at all. it's actually more quiet than del sols or integras w/ dislodged muffler.

 

I continue to reccomed apexi to anyone, $200 at midas great sound and looks

 

if you don't plan on major mods, magnaflow muffler ($80 @ amazon.com) on stock piping will sound great

 

It all depends on the quality of the product. You have 3 options.

A) A decent muffler can be found for under $100, and you can pay a muffler shop to weld it on for you.

B) You can purchase an axle-back exhaust for $120-$200 (I snagged a dented Vibrant TPV for $100 shipped). Installation is a snap, 2 bolts and a gasket.

C) Decent cat-back exhaust (axle-back + mid-pipe) will run you $200-$600+ for all stainless construction with a variety of canister shapes and silencer.

Personally, I am happy with my Vibrant axle-back. Not only was it cheap and easy to install, but I don't think that an exhaust should be where you put your money into an 01-05 Civic. The OEM pipes are mandrel bent already (didn't see any crimp-bends), and are a sufficient diameter given our powertrain layout. A quality muffler or rear-section will do the trick just fine.

Search your options, do your homework before you buy.

 

thanks for the help, anymore opinions would be great
