Default Flowmaster on a SOHC?

I have a Flowmaster Delta 60 muffler, and was wondering if anyone else has used one of these on a SOHC motor? If so, does it muffle the sound well? I bought mine a while ago because I got a really good deal on it($25 new). My car came with one of those coffee-can looking mufflers and I want something with a more stockish look and deeper tone. As of right now, I just have 2.25" piping from the header to the rear.

Sound clips and pics of Flowmaster setups appreciated

That is HUGE piping for a stock SOHC. It will always be loud as heck.

The motor is not stock. It was actually from my old CRX and had came with it; I just had it extended to fit my HB.

The D15B has intake filter(I decided to use the stock intake tube), ZR 4-1 header, that exhaust piping, Crower stg3 cam, Omnipower valves, and later on getting PMS pistons and putting on 42mm ITB's.

The RS*R's do sound nice but more than what I'm willing to spend.

Do you have any video or sound clip of the car with the Flowmaster on? And was it a Delta or the regular ones?

Im using 60 delta flow with 2.25 ss piping and i think a 18'' resonator with a highflow cat on my d15bv mildly built. It's not loud if you drive under 3k all the time, but once u go above that its raspy and ugly. I honestly dont like it and want a quieter muffler.

Theyre not big i put it on my sedan sideways so the pipe comes out of the factory exit. I just painted it flat black.

Just did a quick search on youtube:

The same user has some more videos... it doesn't sound deep at all and almost sounds like a louder version of the stock muffler, lol..

That sounds shitty. I wonder what model that is though.

My CRX that had the piping that's in my HB right now had a pretty low grunt(stock header and some sort of ebay muffler). Only problem was it was way too loud.
