I currently have a 1996 Civic Ex with a Buddy Club Spec II exhaust and need to get rid of it since i daily the car now. I ordered an Apexi WS2 exhaust but they are on back order for about another month or so (that's what i was told). I really do not want to wait that long for it so i was looking at getting a custom exhaust and got a quote for $500. It consists of a Vibrant Resonator, Vibrant muffler, 2.5" Stainless Steel Mandrel Bend Piping installed and everything. What are some of your opinions? Based on sound and performance.

 

I'd wait for the WS2, i had one one on my EJ8 and loved it. Have you looked into the Greddy Sp2 or Evo? The evo is a bit on the loud side but it still sounds very crisp and nice.

Vibrant...i just dont deal with any other name brand than spoon, mugen, fujitsubo, apexi, greddy, or rs-r when it comes to exhaust's

 

another plus for the apexi is that i got it for 390 shipped just have to wait.
