Default What exhaust?

I'm just starting to get my hands dirty and am trying to figure out how I need to do my exhaust. I am going turbo and want the muffler to come out in the proper place. I am a big fan of the dual tip coming out that spot but its not really a big deal. Any help appreciated. I would like to put around 300 into it all when its said and done. Thanks.

Just grab a nice box muffler of a good size like Borla Dnyomax Magnaflow with a 2 tip lay out and piping.

Weld up and tada.

That's what a box muffler is. As you can see aftermarket companies make them.

I'm running an R&D Thermal catback & I love it. Sounds great, looks stock & isn't that loud & obnoxious. I don't know how it would be for boost though...

This is what I use and love it. It even has dual outlets on it like stock but has a 2.25 inlet and dual 2 in outlets. But it might not be the best for a turbo set up.

For my 1990 civic Si, Im picking up a brand new Vibrant streetpower axle back muffler, polished, Stainless steel, Exhaust Tubing Size: 2 3/8" O.D with dual tips.
All for $185 + taxes
I just needed something good and cheap to do the job.



Im also using a rare superspint axle back on my crx with dual tips.



here's what the muffler looks like.

Well here is the look I would love to go for. I love the dual tip.



But is there a muffler that has that look that can potentially not hold back 300-400 horsepower. By this I mean would a muffler as such make me slower than just a regular tip saying i have around 300 in the bay?
