Heres the deal...

I bought my civic yesterday and the stock muffler has a rust hole in it. Instead of replacing it with another stock muffler i wanna put something better on it. The thing is I dont have enough money for a whole new exhaust system, just the muffler.

MY question is will I get some performance increase with just the new muffler?

Im looking to spend tops $150. What could I get for that? I dont want anythign tooo loud either. It can be loud but not booming. Any suggesitons would be appreciated.

 

nah not really.

 

i say u get a fake n1 and have the muffler shop make u a 2.25 piping for it

 

just get them to bend you some pipe, and then put whatever muffler they sell on there....like magnaflow or something.

 

I was quoted by a local shop $100 for the axleback section with a stock-like muffler. Figure you get a decent Magnaflo or Dynomax muffler, you'll be under your $150 limit, but it won't add much, if any at all, performance. Although I think you should just save up and get a full cat-back system. There's a group-buy in the Classifieds of a guy selling mandrel bent systems with ESs and Magnaflos for a really good price.

 

How loud is the n1?

 

Magnaflow

 

the N1 is loud

 

How much would a pretty cheap exhaust system run me?
