Ok, i bought a 2.5" exhaust with headers and test pipe off ebay which i know a lot of you will talk crap but whatever. I was just wondering what makes the exhaust sounds like angry bees. I've heard other civics that are straight pipe that have a deep tone to them. My friend said to replace the muffler and the resonator but I wanted to ask my Honda guys what their opinions are on how to fix my exhaust tone. thanks guys

Yonaka Catback
$240 + free shipping

Deepest sounding exhaust you will find (without costing you an arm and a leg...)
Great fitment
Great looks (polished SS)
NO drone.
NO rasp.
And im not running a cat (B16)
HIGHLY recommended!

The ONLY downside is the massive tip on the end lol. It's freaking HUGE haha

 

looks like a good deal, will probably get that when i get the money but I'm looking for a way to quiet my current exhaust

 

1st, take off the muffler. It's most likely one of those 'Turbo' or 'N1' type mufflers. Get a universal flowmaster or something of the sort. If that's not enough, replace the 'resonator' in the middle section with either just a section of straight pipe, or a 'glasspack' type muffler.

The only problem is all that will cost almost half of the Yonaka and in the end you'll just have a chopped up ebay catback. And it's still probably not gonna sound all that great...

 

I'll probably put the muffler that i had on before but weld the 2.5" piping instead of the stock 1.5"

im prob gana replace the muffler and resonator

 

what exhaust did you exactly get?
I have a header and exhaust system from ebay that is nearly as quiet as stock.
this is the type i bought:

i cut the tip off though hated that giant thing.

 

thats the exact one i got, but mine has a cat delete also

 

what engine is it attached to? what diameter header b-pipe?

 

Apex'i WS2 or the HKS Sport catback is my recommendation

Had a WS2 on my ITR powered EF hatch and it sounded great

 

HKS Sport: $500
Apexi WS2: $750
Yonaka (WS2 clone): $250

Choose wisely

 

its on the stock D15B2 but i plan on swapping in a JDM D15B. the header pipe diameter is i believe 1.5" each pipe then to 2 2" pipes that connect to the 2.5" exhaust

 

very weird, mine is so quiet i can hear the intake much louder than the exhaust note. might want to put a resonated test pipe in rather than just a straight pipe.

 

Im probably gana do that and replace the resonator itself just to be on the safe side
