Default Need some advice.....

Ok. The cops are really cracking down on the whole exhaust issue up here. I was wondering if there is any full catbacks for a 95 GSR that are quiet. I already have a Toda Racing header and a carsound cat. I just need a full catback that sounds stock (or stock until i open up the vtec).

thanks guys.

the RS*R ex-mag or the APEXi world sport, they are both chambered though and the rs*r looks pretty damn stock.

Apexi World Sport is the quietest exhaust I have seen and owned. It looks awesome too.

I can get you a deal from a friend in VA for about $375 - $400 shipped. PM if interested.

I have the WS on my gsr previous GSR for more than 2 years. No problems yet. So to answer your question, if you plan to use the exhaust for the rest of your life...I don't think it is a good idea. If you want an exhaust for the near future 1-5years, than consider the WS. Its one quiet *** exhaust system.

Can anyone vouch for me or the exhaust?

if your header/cat is 2.5", why dont you get in on SMSP's 2.5" catback group buy? i believe it's like $700. looks stock, sounds stock..performs a lot better than stock.

I can't spend that much money on a catback. I need to buy ITR Cams and Cam gears as well. So right now I am checking out this Apexi world sport.

For some reason my PM is not working right now. But I did get your PM (patdemps). To clear things up, I am not selling my exhaust sytem. I was going to connect you to a friend of mine in VA that will sell you a brand new one for $375-$400 shipped. He is also a member of Honda-Tech. mabe you can PM yourself--accordexhange. I bought my Apexi WS and TEIN Ha coilovers from this guy. Great guy! Very helpful. Tell him Allan from San Jose, CA recommended you. He can answer all your questioins about the exhaust.

tom does price matching if you can show him an ad online or otherwise, but beyond that he is a reasonable guy.

The entire 50 state legal thing is kinda sketchy. Most cops and judges will tell you to **** a tree.

My Tanabe Racing Medallion is 50 state legal (no super medallion) and it's well over 110db (90db is the limit in GA) at WOT. I am pretty sure i've suffered hearing damage b/c of it.

I think I have ears of like a 60 year old man and I'm only like 19! **** that!

yea, even if u show cops the paperwork, they have more than enough freedom in their job to give you the ticket so that u can go to court and prove it to them. His job is to cite you... and that's usually their perspective...and if u have the paperwork.. well then they can feel less guilty cuz they assume you can jus contest it.

Well, I was close when I said,"$375-$400." Its good to see accordexchange still has the good deals (in my opinion). I am actually thinking about getting a Greddy exhaust system for my brother's GSR from accordexchange too.
