03 Accord 4dr V6
 
If anyone has an 03 Accord 4dr V6, why does it have 3 mufflers, i know for noise, but if your getting the V6, your probably getting it for more performane, so why disrupt the exhaust more? your views

You mean catayltic converters? Because Honda is stringent to EPA regulations and labelled all of their vehicles as LEV and ULEV (starting in 2004 Accords)

RE: 03 Accord 4dr V6
 
is it? because it looks just like a 3rd muffler and looks nothing like theCat in the front

I think you are refering to the resonator. It looks like a round inline muffler, but there's nothing inside it. It is there to eliminate raspy exhaust noise and to even out the pulsed flow of the exhaust so that it doesn't sound harsh.

No i know what a resonator is and a cat is so i think it is a muffler ill send a pic

Ok, I do know that your car has 3 cats ..... honestly, a 3rd muffler wouldn't surprise me. Smaglik could help here since he has the same gen V6.

Pics work now .... it does look like a muffler!!! To be honest, I ditched my OEM exhaust so long ago that I don't remember if mine had that on it.

geta highflow cat and a magnaflow resonator to decrease the sound. but make sure they don't decrease your performance... 2.25" is perfect.

RE: 03 Accord 4dr V6
 
60mm or 2.5 is better for a V6, but if you intend to stick with OEM, just match the size.

popejoshpope 06-27-2008 01:37 PM

RE: 03 Accord 4dr V6
 
ya thats what im gonna do from the resonator back to the 1st muffler will be the 2.25 pipe im using
