Oval(stock style)muffler Vs round muffler?

nsl · 03-13-2007, 11:45 AM

Specificaly,the protrusion below the car.Seems like most catbacks for the SI are round,and while thats O.K.,I see some cars running around town that look like they have a chrome 5 gallon bucket sticking out the back.Looks totally out of place.I havnt seen any 06+ SI with an exhaust.So,how do the likes of Skunk2,Greddy,etc look from the side of the car compared to the Vibrant or Tanabe?

more agressive, it depends what you like. I like both styles but im leaning more toward something subtle (vibrant,greddy sp2,tanabe). I use to have a n1 type exhaust on my RSX-S and it looked hawt!

The Greddy EVO2 when installed correctly looks great.

^^^ I agree The greddy EVO2 looks greats and sounds even better.

I was never a fan of the big "grapefruit launcher" tips either, but since I got the Evo II the larger tip is growing on me. I think the Si pulls it off because it is sporty enough.... I mean let's be honest the stock oval tip is not small, nor subtle. Plus the deep growl sound of the Greddy Evo II puts it over the edge for me. I mean think about it, do you want to spend $500 on a aftermarket exhaust that looks and sounds close to stock and adds 3 horsepower...... I don't. BUY THAT SHIT!!!!!!

The tip doesn't bother me.Its when you see the car from a side view and you can see the big shiny muffler protruding below the car.I like to see nothing but the tip.I think the comptech looked to be pretty consealed(spell?),but they are no more.Also,round mufflers are O.K.,its just that most I see are too big and bulky for the car they are on.
