Any of you guys have any comments/experiences with this full catback exhaust?

Is it loud with and without silencer? How's the performance?

Thanks

 

2 friends had it, one on an EG, the other a Del Sol, both had GSR swaps, and it was incredibly loud. With the silencer, it's not so bad, but that did slow them down. When the Del Sol added a test pipe, oh my god it was loud!

 

I had one on my 94 DX..it was pretty loud but not overwelming..it makes a really nice deep sound at lower rpms. As for the performance I couldn't really tell you cause it was on a crappy DX motor.

 

what's the piping size on them? 2.5 or 2.75?

 

I just got the Super Racing and I think the piping is 2.5, Havent got it installed yet ... but very excited to see how it sounds !!!

NS

 

I had Tanabe Racing, sound was great, really, really nice and worth it.

http://www.Mackinindustries.com told me the piping was between 2.25"-2.50"

 

I love mine. It can be loud, but the sound is really nice. You will lose a little power with the silencer, but what do u need the extra 1 hp for on the street anyway?

 

i had one on my old car (93 DA) it is a nice exhaust, but it is way too loud IMO.
on the highway i could barely hear my stereo. if you like loud exhausts you will love it.

 

i have one on my 00 si and its pretty loud...it has a nice tone to it though. im plannin to get rid of and get an es muffler

 

I've got the TRM on my '98 Civic EX, and it's sooooo nice... It's got a nice, throaty growl to it at lower rpm, but SCREAMS at 5k+.... And that's on a basically stock D16 with no header....

I can't wait to hear what it sounds like on the B18C swap with the DC 4-2-1 I just ordered...

 

i have this on my 5g Civ and it roars sounds good when vtec kicks in. u notice a difference in power by far.

 

I had a Tanabe Racing Medallion on my VX and it was crazy loud without the silencer and I have a factory GSR header + cat. I put it on my 91 CRX and bought an ES oval for my VX. With a silencer in it isn't that bad, but if you have a vtec motor it can get raspy in the upper rpm's.

If you're looking to go Tanabe but don't want the roar of the Racing Medallion get the Hyper Medallion. I just finished up installing mine on my 5g coupe tonight, and it's super sweet. Nice deep tone when you get on it, but fairly tame just cruisin at 3 grand. Not sure about any power gains, but anything's gotta be at least a LITTLE better than the stock system.

I'll try to get a sound clip of it sometime soon here... if I can figure out how to transfer from a recorder onto the comp.

Do you want one? My friend is selling a full cat-back or just the muffler. Pretty damn cheap too. Email him for info.

Loud, but sweet. I love the deep tone it gives. No high pitched weed wacker sounds here. I've had it for about 1 to 1 1/2 now. Still in great shape. Used the silencer a few times. It helps a little bit.

 

Thanks for the comments and suggestions guys.
I just wanted to know some of your opinions because I might be replacing my 5Zigen Fireball with the racing medalion.

 

I have the cat-back on my 95 sohc ex
VERY deep--especially around 3,000 RPM

 

i have a full cat-back tanabe RM, it sounds nice and deep. i love it.
