Exhaust sound...

[D-Rail]

Im ordering an exhaust in the spring (from buffalo area lots of snow) and i want one with a lighter sound. Dont want my car sounding like a 89 civic. I was wondering if anyone had any input about what exhaust has a lighter but still somewhat aggressive sound. Thanks! first post btw Also does it void warranty adding performance parts? looked on FAQ and that topic was gone.

I have the greddy spectrum SE catback. Those are the video I made. It sound really nice in person.

straight piped doesnt sound like a Honda. it gives it more of a V8 sound... obviously it wont sound exactly like a V8 muscle car but its more along the lines of that sound then a Honda sound.

sorry phenom.. didnt really read the OPs post fully lol

Off topic, but how do you like your Takeda SRI? Any pics and vids available?

[D-Rail]

dan yeah taht would be cool, i actually live in bemus and am a manager at the casino. and desire, i like it but its still in the box lol not gonna put it on till spring, pointless to put it on in the middle of winter around here. ill let u know tho, it has the biggest hp output i could find for a non cold air. 11 hp 13 torque supposedly.

Had the Stillen Catback on my A/C. I thought the resonator added a bit of loud cabin noise. You get used to it though. The tamest I think is the Tanabe from what I've heard.

[JIBRIL4life]

Hey Desire, its not as loud as the fujita. But I like it i felt a difference for sure when i put it on but like all of the WAI, I cant vouche for the added horsepower. Anyone want to pay for a dyno session lol

remind me in spring about the photos, vids i got one of some driving through a cruise area, camera was mounted on front of the bumper and i didnt have my exhaust then... i think. If Dacoupe looks at this thread he may be able to remember.

the absolut badass sound I have ever heard from my car was when I removed the ypipe and I just reved it. IT WAS INSANE! think those borla , artisan or greddy ti-C exhausts are sex ?

WRONG, reving it with just the headers is MINXY

[Hussain]

WOW! most ive done is without a muffler... never tried without the Y-pipe... hmmmm if I did that I probably would have gotten a 13.8 at the track lol
