Would an exhaust shift power band on my car?

Hey guys I have a 98 Civic EX d16y8 that has an intake with velocity stack, header, and test pipe. Would 2.25 piping and exhaust really help out throughout the power band or would it just shift the power band to higher rpms.

A little, very little, of the first and more of the second. Bolt-ons are a waste of money a a D-series.

you not gonna see crazy gains but it will help some.. bolt on's arent a total waste.. they do gain power and help fuel mileage.. just not as much as some other motors...
