I Have a Exsaust ???? Help ASAP... - 2/5/2007 4:47:40 PM    WoooSaaahh!!! Posts: 101 Joined: 11/26/2006 Status: offline Ok here gose... I have a Honda Accord I4 2.3 coupe... It has a duel exsaust system but its not a catback... It still has the resinator and the mid muffler... I want to keep my mufflers being that they are in great shap... My question is what do I need to make it a cat back... I was told that all I need is a stright pipe from the frot of the car to the back... Is this correct... Ofcourse I am keeping the cat... _____________________________ 2000 I4 Coupe Too Many Mods To List!!! The Ride http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2508259 Post #: 1

I had a cat back muffler installed on my car and I hated it!! It was absolutely too loud. I took off the big pipe and welded on a pipe that had a mid muffler and that still didn't get rid of the crazy mind numbing loudness. So I just went back to factory and you know what I never noticed any power gains or losses. I spent all in all about $1,000.00 to be back to factory. I suggest to do a search in the forum to find out about the other guys exhaust and what they have done to better their car. As for the resinator I think it helps dull the sound that the exhaust makes. Good luck and post what you decide and the outcome so we can all learn. _____________________________ (in reply to WoooSaaahh!!!) Post #: 6

Almost everyone had the same suggestions.... Which Include the basic bolt ons and a catback is in those basics and thats the part I am up to... I just wanted opinion cause I am about 20 minutes away from going to do it and needed help... Thankyou and everyone for your input... _____________________________ 2000 I4 Coupe Too Many Mods To List!!! The Ride http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2508259 (in reply to Breeze) Post #: 7
