new exhuast idea
the setup i have right now is a glasspack (the louverd type unfortuanatly) 2.25 piping back to a flowmaster camaro style muffler that splits to duals, It doesnt look bad just shouldnt be on a honda, anyways it sounds good (ask slowman)and it isnt that loud comparing to other honda exhaust ive heard. IMO its just way to restrictive and ive had it for a year so its time for a change. I am planning on changing to 2.5 inch piping a 24inch long and a 20in long resonator that is smooth inside and one 90 degree mandrel turn out the passenger side, I was wondering does anyone have any idea how loud this would be and if anyone else thinks it woul look kinda cool. also rigth now the car is lowered and the 2.25 going over the rear control arm rubs on the lca and on the body when i have a passenger so its really annoying. my mazda has only 2 resonators on it but its 2in piping and its respectivly quiet.

I say go for it; if you don't like it, it's nothing to run piping to the back. If you end up doing it, lemmie know how it turns out, and try to post pics. I'm interested in doing this.
i have a guy with a GSR who did this:
He ordered soem straight piping from me, two resonators straight throuh design and a 45 degree bend:
he said it sounded good and was like a half way point from catback and open header:

well i went to buy a straight through glasspack and the only thing they had in 2.5 were 30 inches long, bought that and i guess im gonna keep the existing setup, if I can find a 24 and a 20 inch then ill end up doing it or if i end up finsihing the turo project ill just take the back section off and run it out the side.

well right now i have to get it done, im loosing my garage my parents are moving to florida, during winter ill decide what to do. Im trying to decide so many things, im either gonna build up my other block for boost or im gonna add a cage, harness, seats, brakes and so on, if i go boost ill change the exhuast, but for a b16 with cams and a port job im sure for now the 2.5 with the flowmaster and resonator will be fine. I welded all the new piping and bends last night maybe ill post some pics. Ill keep you in mind though whenever i decide what to do.
