well i have a Tenzo axel back exhaust on my crx now which is in perfect condition if anyone wants to buy it. Will fit any 88-91 hatch or crx..pics at the bottom..

MY QUESTION IS: whats the best cat back exhaust for my 91 crx si? i've heard a lot about the Greedy XP and Thermal, but thermals are usally a lot of money....

what suggestions do u all have, and please email me if yopu are interested in my axel back exhaust... at Patricksmith04@hotmail.com AIM:smittylax4

 

Just get a custom made one at a muffler shop for half the price. Save yourself money.

 

nah, i want a whole new exhaust

 

5 Zigen gets a from me

 

Greedy XP? what is that? i was just thinking that, and i went to there site there is no XP? my friend said thats what his sister has on her crx? did he nmean mx?

 

Hey, I just PMed and emailed you about the exhaust. I might need it when I'm done with my turbo set-up. So check your e-mail mang.

 

my choice is either racing medalion or skunk2

 

Hey. If you don't need stainless and you don't mind spending a little money, I would go with the HKS. It's a real nice exhaust; quiet and looks pretty stock. Also, your friend might have meant Greddy SP? Just a thought. Good luck

What's wrong with the one you have on there now? Sure, it's Tenzo, but it looks decent and it's not falling off or anything. What's the reason for the upgrade?

I know it's not one of the most well-respected brands or anything, but I don't think that going with Greddy or Thermal will give you that much of an advantage.

Is the piping on the Tenzo super small? Does it sound like ***? What da dilly, yo?

i need a new catalytic con. and i have all stock piping also

 

Thermal is sweet! I'm trying to decide myself between thermal, tanabe, or skunk2

 

Sorry, I should have read more closely before I typed. You currently have an axle back - that clears it up.

If the piping on the axle-back you have is big enough, say 2 1/4", then you could always have new piping mandrel bent and hook it all up to a fresh cat.

Otherwise, you could get a whole new custom setup - Magnaflow 4x9 muffler, custom 2 1/4" or 2 1/2" piping, get a resonator in there, and throw in a new cat.

If you're determined to go with a pre-made setup, Thermal is one of the best choices since it is full stainless steel - *EDIT* it's not that expensive either, compared with some of the other brands mentioned. I've seen it for as low as $460, about the same as the Greddy MX.

The Skunk2 is very nice, although VERY pricey from what I've seen - usually around $550, unless someone has a good price somewhere.

Greddy's always good, but get the MX and not the SP - the piping is a bit bigger and the MX has a nicer tip (IMO). You should be able to find it for $460 - Hondadriven on this board was selling them for around that a while ago.

Most of the CR-X owners i know like the thermal. i see you live in MD... i have a Thermal cat back in stock for the 91 Si it is only $499 + tax. call the # in the sig...

 

Not sure about the XP but this is a GReddy SP


My question is why do you want to get rid of yours?

 

HKS

 

tanabe racing medallion! nuff said

If I were to go on sound quality I'd pick the Greddy. Ive heard several Tanabe exhausts and none have impressed me. Ive had my Greddy since 98 and its still in excellent condition. If I didnt live in a snowy area I would of went with the HKS. My .02

 

I just got a great deal on a 2.5" mandrel catback from Kteller8 on this board, there is currently a group buy going on them so now's your chance.

 

I can get these if you're interested...
HKS sport for crx 88-91 si 569.99 shipped.
GReddy MX for crx 459.99 shipped.

 

OK thanks Hatchii!!!

Once i sell my other exhaust, or when i know i have a def buyer i'll contact you, and the Guy from Mid-ATlantic i'll keep u in touch also....

i really would like an exhaust like the sp, mx, or hks, just not sure which one yet... i like the look of the axel back part of the muffler, not the striaght tip like the guy with the blakc htach...

anyone interested in my axel back email: Patricksmith04@hotmail.com or AIM:smittylax4

 

I wanted to go with the HKS for my hatch because of the stock looking dual tip, but a local dealer is saying that the HKS on the older civics/crx's actually sounds pretty crappy. He said its quite tinny and pretty raspy. Instead he's trying to sell me the Apexi WS cat back. I don't personally know anyone with either system to hear them in person, so I have to trust you guys to give it to me strait. Is he just yanking my chain? I'm running through a test pipe, so that's gonna change the outcome a little over running with the cat. TIA

 

Hatchii...i am really interested the Greedy MX!! what is your email and AIM? Once i have a confirmed buyer i will be shipping a money order out asap!!!
