Its your choice. The Greddy will have a low good sounding roar thats not too loud in the Higher R's. I have a Greddy Evo on my 94 Civ Coupe. The 5Zigen is gonna be really deep and really loud, even at idle u will notice it is loud.

I woundnt say that. Personally I dont like 5zigen b/c of it being too loud. In the cockpit it's like u cant hear yourself think. I used a 94-98 Integra Catback Greddy Evo on mine and I love it, but then again what sounds better than Greddy exhausts? I would say u would be more satisfied with a Greddy over the 5zigen.

My thoughts exactley.

What are you going to do with this car? Turbo or N/A, how loud do you want it? Do you want straight thru or chambered.

i acutally have a 5zigen exhaust on my civic and i found it to be very quiet. i believe its quieter than my dad's integ that has a greddy evo. so either would be a good choice.

Yeah everyone says the 5zigen is super loud, but my 5zigen fireball catback isnt loud at all its comfortable at cruising speed around 4000 rpms.

i've had both the greddy sp and the 5zigen fireball. both a nice exhaust and are designed differently as far as looks which you may want to take into consideration. as far as sound, the sp had a much deeper and mellow sound compared to the high and raspy tone of the fireball. although i liked how quiet the greddy was at cruising, you can't compare the fireball at WOT when vtec kicks in

i'd go with a GReddy because of its nice quiet tone. i've heard many 5zigens and they're a little loud to me.
