Default Need a new muffler.

Looking to replace my muffler ( the weld in the back of the muffler holding on the pipe broke ) and I am looking for something with a little bit of sound. Nothing obnoxiously loud but something with a nice sound to it. Not really looking to go back to OEM. Just looking for a muffler for now and possibly upgrade the rest later. Any recommendations?

Apexi WS2. Quiet at low revs, aggressive sound at higher revs. I really want it on my car

05-06 RSX-S! I picked mine up(with the 05-06 RSX-S b-pipe) for $60! You can find the muffler itself for anywhere from $20-50. Had it installed for another $100. Sounded great for about a week before my flexpipe developed a leak and blew out. Now I'm back to sounding like sh*t.

Sounds perfect, too.

A local forum. If you check out clubrsx.com you can find them in their parts for sale section. Craigslist isn't a bad place to search if you sift through the BS. Searchtempest makes things a breeze for checking multiple cities within a given radius.

I got this on my exhaust. It has a nice deep tone to it. Not too loud. It doesn't look like non stock either I got it like that cause cops can give me a ticket for it:

Or you can get the different tip,

That is more of something I am looking for. Right now I am running no muffler and just need something cheap for now to pass inspection this month haha.
