i just intalled my full cat back "TANABE SUPER HYPER MEDALION" and it sounds so low.is there eny way were it can be louder or were i can make it louder?my engine is still stock.wut do i need to do to make it louder?cuz my fren has the same exhuast and it sound louder than mine.

 

cut the resonator off or get new headers

 

were is the resonator located at.?yea my boyz are telling me to get headers also..

 

you can get a test pipe . beware of smog

 

If you wanted louder you should have just gotten muffler. The Hyper Medallion is quiet, i used to have it on my old 00 civic Si and i loved that exhaust. But yeah to make it a little louder get a header and even a high flow cat.

 

dont hack up your exhaust... its just a waste of money. if you wanted a louder exhaust you should've researched first before you bought the tanabe. the hyper medallion is a very quiet exhaust. if you want it louder, sell your tanabe and buy another exhaust

 

You will love that it is not that loud after a road trip. I believe just as long as it is deep and low pitched that is all that matters.(you dont want a rice sound)...sorry thats just what I think.

But I perfer as quiet as possible. Our cars are almost silent stock, but if I could find an exhuast that was even more silent then stock I would get it....I'm going for the hybrid electric motor silent

 

If it is cat back he should not have the stock resonator, he only would if it was axle back

He only has one. Buying multiples wouldn't help him.

 

I believe everyone is referring to the resonator on the tanabe not the stock resonator.

 

IMO, loud exhaust is simply annoying. I don't see the point in having an exhaust that screams "Look at me! Look at me! My car's loud and slow!!" It'd be a different story if your car was actually fast.

I had a couple noisey exhaust kits and I hated them. Switched to the Apex'i WS2 and never looked back! Lovin' it!

 

X2

only if it was a fast civic......or a sport bike zx-6r, GSXR-750(but that is another story)

 

so getting a headers won't make eny diffrence?like a depper tone.i dnt want eny screaming BS just low but with a deep tone..

 

eh, a header will make some what of a difference how much on a Tanabe IDK, but you could try. My Skunk 2 was pretty deep and much cheaper than the Tanabe unit, I got the whole cat back system for 350$ shipped to my door. Just get a Megan racing header and see what happens, if it gets deeper cool, if not sell the Tanabe and get a new system.

 

F**k it u want loud take it all off .......... lol

 

haha you know what i mean matt .. sorry for the plural

m2s4drespecial,

It's header no s

Headers = plural

Set = plural

There's only one head, one set of exhaust ports, one header.

Why is this so difficult for people to understand?

 

is it really that big of a deal?

a lot of people say headers when referring to them, it doesnt mean your going to get like 5-6 headers for your car.

It's not that big of a deal, really. It's just that it gives people the impression that he has a V-engine... which is a bit of a farce.

 

enjoy your exhaust, a D with loud exhaust sounds like garbage.

 

How many headers would you suggest buying?
My friend got some headers from ebay and they only sent him 3!
