B16A CRX, What kind of exhaust should I get
I want to get and exhaust that doesnt sound loud, and looks similar to the stock, yet still flow well, if such a thing exists. The most import thing to me is that it not sound like a lawn mower. Also, I have the stock header which I will replace later, but I need to know what size exhaust do I need to get and so forth. Thanks for your help.

If you want something that kinda looks stock, the HKS Sport cat-back has dual tips similar to stock but much nicer and a little bigger, 2 60mm tips I believe. I heard it is really quiet too. Only drawback is the price on the HKS, cheapest I've found it for is $584 from Options. The Greddy MX is a nice cat-back also, I had one on a previous car and loved it, 60mm piping and an awesome quiet tone to it. I got my Greddy locally for $460.
I'd get something quiet if you're concerned about loudness like a Greddy, especially if you do a lot of freeway driving where your revs are 4k or above. My cannister style was ok around town, but way too loud on the freeway.

I see in you're sig you plan to turbo. A turbo will significantly reduce the sound level. I recomend Thermal R&D products. I have a Thermal catback on my CRX and plan on getting the 3" Turbo version for my Hatchy. If you are really sound conscious they have a stealth model available. As far as the appearence they are the best looking, manufactured stainless catbacks I've ever seen. I spray painted mine flat black with BBQ black extreme hi-temp paint. They look a little too good all shinny and bling blingy.
