need replacement exhaust
Hi,
i have a 97 accord ex (non-vtec) and the pipe from the cat to the muffler needs to be replaced (hole in the mesh flex piece). Apparently it is the original pipe. Last time i did exhaust on another car it was Maremont and it rotted inside of 2 years, so i am looking for a longer lasting replacement option.
Do any of you have experience with Walker or Bosal?
Any other suggestions? What exactly is the factory, was it stainless? Is it possible to get a direct fit stainless pipe (other than the huge money from the factory) anywhere, or any other longer lasting options?
thanks.

Yeah i think a muffler would cost anywhere from 50-150 installed... Depending on what you go with.
If it's in the higher range, you should convert the entire cat-back to stainless steel with a GReddy SP2

uhhh ...... I think that he just needs the flex connector replaced ...... please correct me if I'm wrong ...... for catback, look at the Apexi WS2 or GReddy SP2 or EVO2 ...... magnaflow is good too for a more standard looking muffler.

What are these "GReddy, SP2, EVO2"? Are those performance options? I am not looking for pricey performance exhaust and want the stock sound level (i do a lot of driving).
thanks.

cutting and welding in a new flex pipe should only cost around 60-75 bucks.
The cat-backs mentioned are performance exhausts. GReddy makes the SP2 and EVO2. Apexi makes the WS2.
