i think that over time your exhaust will eventually get a bit louder. i know mine did.

Remove your resonator.

you could accidentally break one of the bolts that hold the down pipe to the header like me! That livened things up a bit! Then when it starts to drive u completely insane take it to the stealership and make them fix it under warranty!!

get the megan axle back. its tough to make these cars sound bad with the stock set up. the megan looks OEM and is most definatly not overly loud.

Grey2.0SI · 08-21-2008, 01:06 AM

lol thats the ghetto way. start by removing your resonator. if youre still not satisfied, axleback!

OEM_SI · 08-21-2008, 01:07 AM

yeaa wat is that? any DYI wit pictures?

Grey2.0SI · 08-21-2008, 01:16 AM

its like a muffler. it makes the exhaust note quieter. Its smaller then the muffler and in-line on the exhaust system past the catalytic converter.

k20fg2SI · 08-21-2008, 01:19 AM

yea only if there were picture i have no ideaa...noobie sorry guyss if i knew wat this was i woulda done it along time ago will this affect inspection?

burkechrs1 · 08-21-2008, 01:22 AM

haha you could always gap your exhaust. where the muffler meets the midpipe, u unbolt it the put the spring in between the pipes instead of on the outside. my friend did it with is subaru legacy and that thing sounds mean now. but if you're looking for a "little" louder i wouldnt recomend cuz that thing screams now haha

chugiboi · 08-21-2008, 01:25 AM

race header, test pipe, or remove resonator.

Grey2.0SI · 08-21-2008, 01:26 AM

i dont think it'd F inspection. they wont know its gone unless they look real good. lol

02civicsi · 08-21-2008, 01:27 AM

Get a RH. When I was running just the BCRH with the stock exhaust the note was just more of what was already present.

07gen8Civic · 08-21-2008, 12:25 PM

this is a resonator, goes in the pipe a little after the cat.

^btw skunk2 kicks ass if you want something deep, may not be quiet tho...
