IMO evo2 looks best
Ti-c sounds best
its all personal preference
youtube may help you with listening to them if you havent looked already

Yea i have heard both on youtube, but it doesnt give you the true sound ... and if i had the HFP Kit on my car i would get the Ti-C no questions asked but i think it looks weird without the kit , and im also worried about the Evo 2 not being loud enough ...

but if you wanted the exhaust, i would recommend TI-C or N1 if you're okay with a louder exhaust.

loud--->quiet evo2, Ti-c, N1
evo2: 60mm @ cat-->65 (or maybe 70mm) @ muffler
ti-c: 60mm
N1: 2.5"

probably all have about the same gains.

i have heard complaints of the Ti-c being too low since it angles up from under the rear control arm, also that the titanium burnt tip can rub off. the N1 is proably one of teh riciest exhausts. everytime i hear it is sounds very raspy. out of those i would choose the evo2 for its quality and deep tone, but its definatly sounds like its quieter than your looking for.

maybe want to try the vibrant exhaust? iin terms of loudness its about as loud as the ti-c but i feel its better quality. or maybe try skunk2 60mm since you seem to be wanting the canister tip design.

Those are the 3 I'm considering the most as well. I don't think you can go wrong with any of them. But are there any differences in HP gain between the 3? I guess I'd make that the decision maker. mischief- The Evo 2 is pretty quiet among the exhaust options for the Si. In fact, I don't know if I can think of a quieter aftermarket exhaust. Maybe I'm wrong though

Skunk, why go from 2.25 exhaust to 2.50? Might as well go to 2.75

Why don't you ask around in your area for fellow FG2 or FA5 8thcivic members and see if they have any of those exhaust systems. If they do, tell them you'd buy them a beer or something if you can take a spin in it. You should be able to make up your mind then.
