Hihi people!
I want this muffler for look, but not sound or performance.
What do you think??

dude I noticed by the photo your car is auto....dont' bother modding it man cause it's auto....that muffler will be HUGE and Loud.....it will make your car look pretty stupid.....save for another car that is a 5spd or save for a manual converstion...then piece together a turbo kti so your D16 will have soem speed THE END

Hihi Dingus8!
I will leave the silencer in, should be able to remove the sound ^^
I just need a new muffler and I want the look of it ^^

dingus8 18-Oct-2003 12:44 AM

ya the silencer dosent' kill the noise liek they say...I've heard tons with and without and it barely dulls it out....I'd say jsut go to a local shop so you can look and actaully touch what your buyign...plus ebay you will pay boarder taxes duty and **** so....there has to be a coupel spots where your from to buy mufflers...??

imported_jj2ii3344 18-Oct-2003 12:48 AM

Is there any spot you know that sell these types of mufflers for around $80?? Thanks!!

I bought my carbon fiber muffler from ebay, it sounds and looks good. The silencer does dull out the sound when on, when it's off it's loud as hell.

"Power up to 10% Horsepower!!!"

w00t!

imported_jj2ii3344 18-Oct-2003 02:14 PM

Thanks guys for the inputs!!
Hahahha, these ebay auctions always come up with bullshit statement about how much it can increase horsepower lol

I am going to order one later this month, will let you guys know!!

imported_BoOsTd 18-Oct-2003 02:47 PM

yah its more like 10% percent minus 10 hp increace...lol Mufflers do nothing powerwise...

The silencer on mine makes my exhaust sound almost stock, I can barely hear it with it in... but when its out its pretty loud.... I guess it all depends on the particular muffler...

imported_jj2ii3344 18-Oct-2003 08:18 PM

Hi guys!! Thanks so much for your advice BOOSTZEX!!! (lol, i typed boostsex again lol)

The inlet of the muffler is 2.5" and I think my stock inlet is 2.15" or something?? That is okay right??

imported_BoOsTd 18-Oct-2003 09:51 PM

your stock will be much smaller than that... The exhaust guy should make you a new axle back with the right sleeves to make it fit... expect to spend up ti 100$ for the install... might be able to find a better price than that, but thats about average...80-100$

cikvic 20-Oct-2003 03:47 PM

that's just a cheap imitation of the 5 zigen fireball exhaust that i have....i have no silencer and find that its pretty quiet on my '99 hatch...although i just recuieved an unnecessary noice ticket in 'sauga!!

bbarbulo 20-Oct-2003 04:32 PM

please.... please, if you have ANY sense, you will not purchase this ridiculous product. You would be better off just letting your current exhaust fall of, then buying ANY stock integra axleback and making it fit.

Yea thats a better idea, for 80 bucks you should be able to get a Type R axleback used. Catbacks run like 200 last time I looked.

Does an ITR axle-back bolt onto a EK coupe (Si) readily? If it doesn't, approximately how much would it cost to get it to fit? Thanks! :)

imported_BoOsTd 21-Oct-2003 12:43 PM

^^^ its not a worth while upgrade, but if your old muffler is done for, than its a good idea forsure...

j9chan 21-Oct-2003 01:39 PM

Why is it not a worthwhile upgrade? Coming back to my question, does an ITR axle-back bolt right up to EK coupes?

bbarbulo 21-Oct-2003 01:55 PM

92-00 Civic shares the exhaust, so if it bolts to a 5th gen, it'll bolt to a 6th gen.

j9chan 21-Oct-2003 02:11 PM

I guess that's the big question... :) Does an ITR axle-back bolt right on to 5th gen or 6th gen Civics??

bbarbulo 21-Oct-2003 02:15 PM

with slight modification that any exhaust place can perform. we have affiliates that'll get you a discount
