I need to replace my stock exhaust and just wanted to know if anyone has the OBX exhaust and if it's loud? If so, comparable to what? I don't mind a nice deep tone, but I don't like anything that's too loud or annoying.
I picked one up for under $200 to replace my rotted stock exhaust. Initially I was very pleased with it, but it quickly became much louder. Realistically its no different that a swapped Civic with an exhuast ( tons of vids on YouTube) but because of the CR-V's cabin, it seems to be more "boomy". It also doesnt help that at highway speeds you are turning 4k rpm.

Okay thanks for the info! I guess I'm stuck with building my own exhaust then. First things first...buy a welder and get my dad to teach my how to weld since he used to be a welder years ago. I figured that'd be the cheapest alternative anyway since buying pipes is still fairly cheap online.
mine is at exactly 3000 rpm at 100km/h and i think its at 3300 at 120km/h thats with my 215/75/15 winters trying too keep it from screaming so much on the hwy
and i also need a new exhaust i might just go too an exhaust shop save myslef the hastle, get them too make it a little more streamlined and closer too the body for ground clearance
