My parameters are pretty restrictive sounding, but:

I don't want excessive loudness
No buzzing/farting
Just a nice deep tone

Any suggestions?

 

hm...get a custom 2.5 mandreal bent piping with an apexi ws axle-back ?

 

i just got the RSR i'll let you know when i put it in..but do a search i heard a lot of people saying it's a little bit louder than stock. i can't wait

 

Custom pipes with a Dynomax Super Turbo muffler.

 

I got my RS*R 2 weeks ago. $290 for full catback. Louder then stock and a little louder. 5dB louder at idle. 1dB louder at 6000rmp.

 

machaf-the full cat back for 290? do you have any pics of it by any chance? Also do you have any clearance issues? Where did you buy it? sorry for all those questions. I'm hunting for an exhaust myself.

 

Contact Dave Stadulis. (H-T.com username: SMSP). He builds and sells 2.5" exhausts using a Magnaflow resonator and muffler. I've got one on my car. Very much a sleeper system and nice sound, too.

 

Greedy SP is a good quiet one as well. Not exactly a sleeper in the looks department with a larger tip but nice and quiet.

 

Just cut the tip and put something smaller.

 

RSR Greddy, etx are not 2.5 inch.

 

yes indeed! sleeper til u rev her...hehehe. the tip is not that big, Tanabe's tips are big! SP is a bit bigger than stock tip

 

dc sports is very quiet but has a fairly large tip.

 

IM'ed you bro.

 

i've used the greddy sp and it's pretty quiet, i've used the greddy evo too and didn't like it...

now i'm using 2001 itr catback exhaust...can't get any sleeper than this. imo
it flows well and sounds good at wot!

 

sound wise, the SP is more of a low growl...well for what a 4 cylinder can growl. OThers i have heard are more high sounding . Hard to explain, just be sure to ask people to hear therew exhaust before you drop some coin on one for youself.

 

Look in the classified section I got the RSR exhaust from him. The exhaust is very quiet it looks stock (ceramic exhaust).

 

I would get the SMSP exhaust.

They don't make a real 2.5" cat back yet. The closest is a 2-3/8 (60mm) tanabe exhaust.

 

Just the SMSP b-pipe is over $300 and it still need to be welded together.

 

The Apex world sport is really quiet too and it has the stock shape muffler and tip.

 

If he wants a true 2.5 all the way through the apex muffler wont work.The inlet is 60mm.Get someone local to do a custom Exhaust and use a large resonator.The only mufflers I know of that have inlets that size are N1 type(HKS,sebring etc..)You typically won't hear the words 2.5inche Ex. and quite in the same sentence.

 

i love my dc....not loud at all - the tip isnt big i dont think - 4" is conservative, looks good under the oem kit

 

thought the greddy evo had a 2.5in muffler

 

Just to point out since it doesn't seem to be registering to like 90% of the people who posted in this thread:

YOUR TYPICAL BOLT-ON AFTERMARKET CAT BACK EXHAUSTS DO NOT HAVE 2.5 INCH PIPES.
If you want something quiet get custom pipes, a resonator, and a Dynomax Super Turbo muffler with a tip of your choice.

 

Fuzz,think before you speak.The USDM ITR exhaust is very far from 2.5 inches.To my knowledge there are no after market 2.5" either.60mm,3" etc...but no 2.5"
