Default Loud Exhaust...

I'm planning to get muffler, but I don't want one that is loud. Basically one that is quiet like the stock one. Any Suggestion? The one I'm looking for is similar to this.

I have a stock 4dr civic. Any difference vs. stock muffler? GAIN or Loss of power?

THANKS

Apexi WS2 look good, and i think they sound pretty nice. im not a fan of loud exhausts but this one has a nice tone to it. you'll be happy with it.

They come in different sizes. 60MM and 80MM. Do I get the 60MM, because my pipe is pretty small.

get the WS2 you will not see any gains with just a muffler even with a full exhaust you will only see a few (2-4 hp) gains depending on what set up you're running.

Yes get the 60mm with the left offset. You wont "notice" any gains, you might gain like .54356453 hp or something like that. The WS2 is the best sounding quiet muffler out there hands down.

I would second that but if you have a stock car you still aren't going to notice much of a difference. If you are just looking for a little sound go with the muffler.

the apexi world sport is the same thing in the picture.sounds nice.its like a beefed up stock muffler.i would reccomend it to someone who is looking for a stock sound.as far as power gains you wont feel a world of a difference because your still pushing a sohc.
