You make absolutely NO sense. If he did that that why would he ask? You are allowed to ask questions on here. And most people are willing to help so why the crappy reply?

1.Forum search

2. google

3. Bing

4. search.com

5. yahoo questions

6. yahoo search engine

ill be honest, i only looked at 6....

anyways, when i looked up exhaust systems, i got a lot of sites lol but most didn't offer it for my del sol except for skunk2's website.

You make absolutely NO sense. If he did that that why would he ask? You are allowed to ask questions on here. And most people are willing to help so why the crappy reply?
thanks =D

thats why i asked you , since i had a suspicion you didnt really know what you want and just wanted someone to tell you what exhaust to get

if you have looked around you would probably find a few that you like and asked which out out of X exhausts is better for your application.

a quick hop to club integra's store brought up a few options
http://www.clubintegra.com/store/exh...stems_c43.html


whic also could be found here on HT ( i posted the link just for reference)

you also should specify if you have vtec or single cam del sol, and what performance upgrades you have on it.





joe. i could have simply put "USE SEARCH BUTTON" but i think asking if he has done any research before asking such a general question is allowed as well.
since he doesnt know what he is looking for it would turn into another noob thread and get locked with a link pointing to FAQ.

raverx3m...you might as well have just said "USE THE SEARCH BUTTON" because its the equivalent of "give us 10 sites you have looked up". It's obvious he is searching for an exhaust system for forced induction since this is the forced induction section. But anyways, he has gotten a few good answers I guess.

OP...here is a few good sites to check out:

http://vibrantperformance.com/main.php

http://lightningmotorsports.com/exha...s/c-10121.aspx

http://kteller.com/

http://www.nolimitmotorsport.com/thermal/turbo.html

http://www.thermalrd.com/


That should at least get you started. Goodluck!

I just honestly don't nkow what im looking for. like i said im new to exhausts, lol i didn't even know that vtec and single cam had anything to do with the exhaust.

i have 1993 honda del sol with a b16A SiR2 VTEC Motor. Its not turbo'ed yet but will soon be (as of the 30th of this month)..

From what i've gathered.. im looking for 2.5" piping and a nice muffler for a decent pur

sorry i wasn't so specific

Btw: i try to research first, i just couldn't find anything good with info =P i guess it was the way i was typing it

is someone doing the turbo install for you?
if its a shop then you could probably ask them what they recommend for that turbo setup you planning on,
if you have a performance shop nearby that has lots of hondas, hang out there and listen how different exhausts sound.

or if you hear someone in the parking lot drive by with a nice exhaust that you like, dont be ashamed to ask, i did that few times.
or at a honda meet you can definitely get there early and listen to the people pulling in im sure there will be plenty for you to listen to.

i personally liked my greddy evo2, but it burned out and i have a silencer in it now, and i think it sounds great with the silencer as well.

but for a turbo itsa lil different game.

Excuse me everyone im brand new to this forum so if I do something out of line feel free to let me know. teknicalissue I have just bought a Del Sol and im also looking to get a performance exhaust, so I felt I had to get in on this conversation.

First off my last car was a 1997 honda civic. I bought a Magnaflow cat-back exhaust and loved it. its wasn't too loud but instead had a nice purr to it, and I highly recomend it.

Magnaflow are more known for their sound, than their performance. over a stock exhaust you'll still notice a good horsepower gain, but if your looking for even more horsepower I hear Skunk2 is the way to go. However Skunk2 is very loud.

The car I bought is a 1995 Del Sol with a B18C1 engine swap, with duel cam VTEC, and im looking for an exhaust with more of a deep growl than a purr as i got with Magnaflow. and I want to keep the sound from being TOO loud. what I'm looking at right now is Tenrai, I compaired different exhaust sounds on youtube and this one seems to be what im looking for, here's the link- (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gx11tmW1Rc0) if your interested. also check out the comments under the video, it seems this is a good exhaust with turbo.

Before I make this message too long teknicalissue I thought you should know that the 1993 Del Sol only came in one variation, with a 1.5 liter SOHC single cam non VTEC engine. meaning that your engine is probably a swap... and I dont know what that means in terms of buying an exhaust, but you and I may have to take that into consideration as well, so if you learn anything I'd love to know. If you would like to see some more reliable information here's a good link-(http://consumerguideauto.howstuffwor...-del-sol-6.htm)

I realize this isn't an answer to where a good place is to buy exhaust, but I thought it would help in your search.

Find a muffler shop and have them make you an exhaust; its cheaper and no different than a name brand exhaust. I'm running a 3 inch exhaust with a Magnaflow muffler. I like the setup so much better than my old Tanabe and Skunk2. I must say though that I hate loud exhaust systems and the Magnaflow muffler is really quite so that is a major factor to why I love this setup versus my old two name brand setups. I spent about $375.

i got a catback from an ebay store, and it was such an amazing product with its full 2.25" SS tubing with flawless welds.
http://myworld.ebay.com/ebaymotors/nissangtrpower/

but if you live in the city like me theres exhaust shops all around the place willing to custom make your a catback for about $200, but i wouldnt use their muffler. I would buy an ES Tuning muffler, its a really great sound, but without the big attraction of a huge cannister muffler

teknicalissue i've been looking high and low for the Tenrai exhaust system and and the only place i can find it is ebay, and Im not familiar enough with ebay to use it. also i've found out that Tenrai is very loud, and their welds arn't too good but quality for price I guess.


http://www.andysautosport.com/honda/1993_1997_del_sol/ <--Great site! especially for us people who dont know everything about cars, because they give a little description of what each part is and why you should buy. They have exhaust also, and not just one brand. I'm looking at GReddy EVO2 exhaust system.

I think maybe its a script that runs on header.jpg that does your rollover nav.
