Default Ever used the Skunk2 exhaust?

Well, I was planning on buying the Apexi WS2 exhaust tonight but noticed that the Skunk2 on eBay was actually a few bucks cheaper. I like the WS2 but wish it was a little louder. Does anyone know how the skunk2 sounds? I noticed it came with a sliencer so that makes me assume its way to loud. Or should I just stick with the WS2 as planned? Thanks

Does the Skunk2 even fit a four door? I noticed this listing said coupe/4dr but the others say coupe.
skunk2 4 door
Skunk2 coupe

If I used the silencer any ideas hoe it would sound, bad, or just as quiet as the WS2?

And about the WS2, if you step on the gas does it get really loud? I've got a sri so thats loud as well!

The intake will more than likely drown out the sound of the WS2 at around 3k rpms.

It's hard to tell, but the Skunk2 looks like it would be pretty loud. I wouldn't like the idea of putting a silencer on it, because your taking away some of the gains you wanted by putting an aftermarket exhaust on there in the first place. Here's a video I found of the skunk 2 on an integra. I don't know how similar it would be to your car: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-4780978013213789405&q=skunk2 exhaust

I also noticed on this site (here) that they say the 4dr 94-97 will fit the same as the 2dr. Take a look.

I'd say there looks to be a couple variables for you to determine before you buy the skunk2 just yet. If your really thinking about it, do a bit of research and make sure it's what you want. I'd try to find out what it sounds like on an accord with and without the silencer first. If your itching to get it and want to buy an exhaust right now, I'd go with the exhuast your sure on and spend an extra couple bucks. (Of course I'm a bit partial the the apexi though .)
