Awesome. Yea i guess it is hard to explain with words. anyone got a vid of there stock 5s or 3s? Get some before and afters.

does anyone know what difference to the sound of a stock exhaust and muffler these three mufflers would make?

or this : http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...em=360090419964

would these sort of sound like a cannon/fart can/canister? I kind of like that sound but like the look of these better. or if these would sound like it actually goes fast that would be cool. which one would be the best? although i am looking at the OBX coz they are cheaper haha

EVO. I know how it sounds, and it is good.

I personally like the OBX WS. I didn't know they made those, it looks nice. I'd rather get that then a canister.

can you describe the sound they make? i kinda want it to sound like a fast race car or deeper. If you saw the dual exhaust set up video in the for sale section wud any of these make it sound close to that? but i like all 3 of these :S

PS i know my car will only be stock but i want it to sound cool

Got my exhaust off ebay for $30 shipped. Tried it out after hearing a nice one on youtube. I must say, it sounds great the way it is, without the silencer. I get a lil pop when I switch gears after 1st and 2nd, but I kinda like that. Reminds me of rally cars. Anyways, I went with 2.5" piping and didn't feel any HP difference....... Until the inside blackened out and the burnt smell that was coming out of the exhaust left. Now I feel a difference. I know nothing of HP differences, but if I had to say, this feels like I gained around 10HP from it. But the car does get up a lot faster. I know my baby to the point where I can tell if pressure in my tires is lost from how she handles and accelerates. So yes, there was a HP difference. I wanted to get an HKS, but I will wait until after the swap in late 2009/early 2010, where I will go with either 3" or 3.5" piping.

I like the mufflers in that style because they tend to offer a much deeper exhaust tone due to their internal baffling.

I just got my new JDM 7afe today, put in monday ! Oil pan cracked, slung a rod in the original (152,000) I have had the car since late august. Early sept. clutch had went out. Had stock clutch, and the man who i bought it froms wife had been driving it. She hit a parked car... WTF?!? Fender is got a small dent in it. Anyways to the point, I go to the local Pull A Part, i just go and look around often and scope for cars i'd like to buy and have a nice lil project this summer. While walking around with a friend i found a Honda Crx, ( Had Civic cut out in the hood LMAO). The car looked like crap. Anyways, while laughing at this, i glanced down and saw a Dynomax exhaust on it. Looked it up its a muffler Dynomax and Bosal got together on. Sounds really good. Wasnt too hard to find it on youtube. I'm going to go 2.25 piping, and delete the cat.

My question is
What would i do with the O2 sensors?

BTW ... 1994 St 5 speed.

My friend also had a 1994 St Auto, he cut his cat and resonator off. SOUNDED LIKE ****. His muffler was pretty cheap, and sounded crappy. He put his resonator back on, didn't sound THAT bad, still sounded like a ricer b/c of that muffler.
Yes yes, In mississippi Not having a Cat is illegal, BUT people here really don't care as long as your not doing a drive-by.


My two cents.
I agree with the anything above 2.5 pipe on a N/A, anything bigger, sound like a ricer who's about to blow the engine. I also know in most southern states a resonator isn't required, running pipe no bigger than 2.5 with factory resonator to a decent muffler to me and many others not so raspy. The resonator muffles the sound, but not all of the sound. It helps the sound volume and the sound quality. To each their own, but different people think different systems sound like complete ****. I have a friend who has a magnaflow cat, older Greddy muffler 2.25 pipe, it sounds like crap, but so does a straight pipe with no cat or res. to a muffler, its way loud. If people can hear you over a mile away in a city than yes, its way to loud.

st id say 2.25 or 2.5, and just got to your local shop and have them weld a new bung in a location similar to then og one. so it doesnt mess with the sensors positioning and stuff like that since it all programed for the way it is so it may mess with it if you move it to far from the original position. but i may be wrong

is this the obx you were talking about?

I want a deep sound, not something high pitched and rattles.

no mine is a decent medium tone not too rice'ish but im thinking about putting another resonator to deepen it a little more

Akirad, you running a stock resonator?

>
yeah sure am, but im thinking about redoing the whole exhaust setup.
maybe changing the muffler i dunno yet, need new rear brakes first

runnin drums or did you have the disc upgrade? Im hoping when I do get the chance to upgrade the exhaust I'll be running a cat back set up. New parts all around!

>
im still on the drums for now, but yeah im thinking of a glasspack resonator with my muffler i wanna see how it sounds cause i want a very deep sound any recomendation to get a deep tone kinda like a scooby or srt4 with out the poping that is has at the rpm downfall

Wish I could give you one. Im trying to run magnaflow all the way. We'll see how that sounds in about a month (i hope)

>

deff gotta run by the casa and hear it when you get it

Yeah, hopefully i get the set up for x mas, I doubt it though. Not a bad price through hot exhaust w/ military discount.

>

cool gotta love the G.I Discount

I know. I think the total price comes close to 130, thats street series muffler w/ new resonator plus the free shipping. Save close to 40 duckets.

ah g.i discount, i miss that. went with my sis al the time when my brother-in-law was in iraq. Yea, i want that deeep tone too, i was thinkin maybe stock resonator with magnaflow cat, i don't mind the pop when revvinig down, well i do mind on honda's sounds like someone who has bad gas.

oh yea, anyone know the difference between the obx b9 and obx b10?

1

for all of you using the cat backs like the sp2, etc. It doesnt hit the axle or anything? My over axle bend(custom) is actually hitting the bottom of the frame and it just vibrates on it and annoys the hell out of me. I was thinking about getting this but i'm not 100% positive yet

So back a while ago i got a cat back magnaflow exhuast and i still had my original headers with the 1st catalytic converter and then the original 2nd catalytic converter. It sounded really nice a had that deep sound sorta like a subaru. Really loved it. But once i got aftermarket headers installed and magnaflow high flow catalytic converter, the tone changed a bit but i still liked it. From 4-5,000 rpms in 1st and 2nd gear only i get a raspy noise which really sounds horrible. If i were to install a magnaflow resonator would it eliminate the raspyness noise and keep the same great tone that the exhaust produces right now???

Hello!

I have a Celica ST with the 7AFE engine and stock exhaust. I want to tune it up, and I know a exhaust shop that can do the job for me. I am looking for a exhaust which sounds great, but not too loud. I was thinking about the "Megan Racing N1". What is recommended for my wish?

Is it just to take of the old muffler, and plug this on? Or do I need some more, like a resonator?

Well, if you really want to do it right you want to do a cat back. get larger diameter piping from cat to the muffler. You may want to get a new resonator that matches the piping diameter though...better flow. 2.25 should do you just fine.

alright then i'll think about getting a resonator. they charging me $110 installed which is good. Would it be ideal to do straight piping or leave it as is and let the piping go over the chassis like it is right now.

I would recommend not doing straight pipe.. I did a 2.5 Straight pipe over axel and I'm about to put a piece of dinomite in my car and walk away. It's ridiculously raspy and annoyingly loud. I'm buying a resonator in the next week I hope and I PRAY that it helps w the raspy crap! Idk if maybe i also bought a faulty muffler, something busted loose in it or something and that makes the rattler worse, IDk but its obnoxious. I would advise not to do a straight pipe w/o a resonator or something.

It won't be bad was a resonator added, but what muffler you have also plays a key role in how loud it is.
