no way! you can never fully appreciate it until you experience it. thats why i say open header. he can experience one extreme, realize it sucks, then want somthing quiet w/ good flow (good luck)

yes, you are gonna ned a DP WITh a cat, but you dont necessarily need a muffler, it just makes the exhaust quiter if you buy the right one.

i hear of some members running LSJ (2.0 supercharged engine) headers DP and catbacks for their 2.2 and getting some nice gains. you might wanna look into this.

Like others have said. Run straight pipe.

When you get tickets and/or come back complaining. We told you sold.

But if you want loud I got a summit racing muffler and put it on. I was heard 3 city blocks away without getting on it. When I got on it you saw everyone look at me cussing. And all the civics frown as they were loud and slow and i was louder than them and faster than them.

Then I went to a custom setup with a flowmaster 40 series and a glasspack. Nice deep tone until I got on it then sounded like a regular 4cyl. Nothing like a civic though.

Don't you drive a automatic if you do you get this treat.

You will actually lose power if you do it wrong.

Just go to a auto parts place buy a 18" glasspack and a Flowmaster 40 series muffler. Get your tip at walmart.

Go to a exhaust shop have them cut out a section and put glasspack in kind of in the middle of the car. Remove old muffler I mean backpack and run piping to 40 series then to the tip. You'll be satisfied.

Also make sure you get a straight straight muffler. I got a straight and side muffler and had a issue with vibrations since I was lowered. It hit the rear spring a lot because it was being pushed over.

~$200 bucks and I gained maybe 5 or 6whp. You don't get a lot of power from exhaust systems. My biggest gain exhaust wise was getting a header.
