Top Speed twin loop. Really quiet for street driving.

Open ITR b-pipe. Loud as fawk. Revs quick and sounds awesome coming out of a long straight and double-clutching into a left turn. Gets old after a while.

Soon to be Hytech 2.5" muffler w/ ITR b-pipe and test pipe with a 3ft to 4ft race pipe for track racing. I might have to put a magnoflow 4" round muffler on it to get it to pass track sound level limits.

Rs*R Old school. I love the sound. Quiet idle and sounds fantastic when you open it up.

Looks great in my opinion.

hks drager + 60mm tanabe bpipe
excellent tone, beautiful canister, large tip, quiet when u need it to be.. police don't notice it because 1. its quiet at low rpms & 2. the canister doesnt reflect directly back of the car... loud when u want it to be... i love hks exhausts...
when u finally blow all the crap out the 7 year old canister(brillo pads n' fiberglass) u can set off car alarms being 15 feet away... will put a huge dent in your poor student budget...

tanabe Ti ultra medallion catback
made of titanium.. pretty good flow.. with the baffle it's super quiet.. be sure to take out the baffle if ur driving it hard.. i took it out at the track.. boo YeA it was LoUd~!.. sounds like a race car..
trust me on this one... no baffle = loud.. not cute enough for my teg.. looks like what every other joe-schmo out there.. whiny and loud... earplugs anyone?

lets just say i have an hks drager again...

apex'i ws -
pros: one of the quietest aftermarket catbacks and good tone, no highway droning
cons: like many bolt-on catback the flanges are a bottleneck. the muffler is a bit ostentatious

kteller custom bent catback-
pros: offers 2.5" od piping all the way from tip to tip. no flange bottlenecks. bang for the buck.
cons: not bolton, have to weld hangers/flanges.

Tanabe Racing Medallion w/removed bottleneck

Pros: Increases flow, sounds mean with WOT, looks nice

Cons: Pretty damn loud, "scale" resonator, only 60mm.

I'm thinking about swapping my rear section for a GReddy SP..

Type One Racing Catback

pros: 2.5" diameter, best sounding exhaust i have ever heard on an integra in my life, nice burnt tip look, titanium tip, titanium muffler available.

cons: 680$ price tag, not 3" turbo friendly, had to bore out bolt holes so that stock bolts would fit in them.
