i have an b18a1 ls swap, rmf narrow header w/ 2.5" test pipe. How is the spec 2 on your car on the highway is it really loud and do you use your silencer if it helps.

well i got a d15b2 w/ mpfi and the basic bolt ons including a dc header and an omni test pipe and it sounds pretty good so im guessing urs will sound pretty much the same besies the .3 displacement advantage. ive ran it a couple of times w/ the silencer and it sounds almost stock but w/ some raspyness. on the highway there is some drone but im also cruising at 70 at 3.5k. and the ls trans is longer geared so may be a big quiter

I have the skunk2 megapower for my CRX with a b16a. It is a bit loud but i LOVE it and its a great sound. Even my domestic buddies and truck buddies say it sounds awesome, not raspy or fart can. I would recommend it.

haha im running like that now cus the 2 bolts broke on the testpipe, loud is an under statement. no its quiter than that and has a deep tone to it, just too much for some people. yeah if the cops are always lookin for someone to mess with i would recomend the silencer in it.

Yeah it is quieter but it restricts the exhaust way too much for my R swap. I hooked a boost gauge up to the test pipe with the silencer installed and was building about 10 psi of back pressure.

I had a 2.25" exhaust made for my civic (with a B16A) and a straight through magnaflow muffler, test pipe, and magnaflow tip... check out how it sounds on the dyno:

in my opinion a little buzzy on the low end, but above that it sounded pretty good i think.
