Exhaust or Cold Air Intake for 2001 CIVIC LX f--- which first...what kind? 200$ TO SPEND
I'm looking to make my civic a bit faster, but at the same time...make it sound good.
I do NOT want my civic to sound like "a pissed off bumblebee"
If ya know what I mean.
Should I get an exhaust first? Or a cold air intake?
Either way...Ill be gettin both of them as soon as possible, but looking to buy one of them ASAP.
I have roughly 200 dollars to spend, can go up a bit........any suggestions on what kinds of exhausts to look at? Any videos of some civics or pics of some civics with some exhausts in this price range? THanks guys.

I have the K&N Typhoon intake and I am really happy with it... Good name backing it up and all though you barely get any real power gain you will see a slight but still very small rise in fuel mileage. As for the sound i feel and have been told on several occasions before I even got my exhaust that my engine sounded awesome. It deepened the overall tone when really getting on it along with adding that kinda sucking/whistling sound that most intakes will give you. As for exhaust I have a magnaflow which is ok sounding as long as you let it warm up a bit before giving it any real gas... but I have heard a borla system and it sounded extremely well on the d17
get an intake, short ram or cold air. i had both, cold air and a skunk2 cat back. the piping is way to big on the skunk2 for our cars, i do alot of highway driving and the noise eventualy got the best of me and i took it off. not to mention if you do anything wrong on the road the cop will prolly give you a hard time for it being illegal. id play it safe and go with the intake. also with 200 bucks you arnt going to get much of exhaust.
