Hows the muffler going so far? I like it cause it doesn't look cheap for a straight pipe one. Maybe its because it looks big.

Give me some feedback on you muffler.

Nice ride btw! Clean!

I've driven with this pipe for close to 150,000 miles, and I would say I loved it, loved the low tone it had, the sound baffle was pretty useful at times. I found it stuck out like a sore thumb and the styling wasn't exactly classy for an Accord, but who cares anyway.

Know that the exhaust line is not completely made out of stainless steel. It is only the muffler part that is. And I was plagued with vibration problems, because the piping was touching the aluminum insulation. It was a pain in the ***.

I've had it on for about a week now and it's been pretty fun. I agree it's not exactly the best looking exhaust for an accord but the performance is well worth it.. Yeah I had a little problem w/ the rattling also just had to bend the shield a little so it wouldn't rattle as much. Very fun though..

This is the SRM

Well Mine is also a Super Racing Medalion, which is full Stainless. Well I loved mine and I also had the problem with the heat shield and had to bend it up alittle but nothing big. I loved the low deep tone and sound that Tanabe exhausts make so I always wanted one since I could remember hearing my first one. Well I will show some more pictures of the exhaust, so here ya go.

Im still thinking of geting that or a hyper. Racing medalion is all about HP. I just like the style of the hyper for accords for some reason. Just a lil concern that a lot of straight pipes are everywhere now a days...but if you want the power...gotta go straight.

thanks for the pics man. I appreciate it a lot!

Yeah no problems man. I also like the Tanabe Super Hyper Spec, they are nice really nice and deep and not to loud and they have that good old Tanabe sound. I have seen a couple around Des Monies but I don't have any pictures, one was on a 92-96 Prelude, and one on a 92-95 Civic Hatch, and one on a 94-97 Integra. They all sounded good and looked nice, but the only thing that is kinda out of place on them is the tip it just seems alittle big for an oval muffler but that is just what I think.

Damn, looks nice. Wish my Greddy SP had that kind of ground clearance w/the piping
