yes whale penis and exhaust/headers would make the nose a bit more lol if thats what you mean. twin cam honda engines tend to sound bit better in the vtec range

You won't hear shit then!!

Plus Honda set the point to cross over without a spick as well so you should't really feel it ether..

You should just be able to reve her out smoothy..

Upgrade your exhaust and that all changed...

Gotta remember its a SOHC vtec-e.

And you need pedal to the metal to hear it on your SOHC

just get a panel filter like k&n and remove your resonator box in the fender
maybe run a col air feed too
dont need to get a exhaust all u will hear is a farty drony crap noise
u will hear your vtec if u do that mod

told you.

i had a d16y1 a while back, and all i did was put a intake on, and it becomes quite loud, as in people down the street could now hear it, and this was before ehxuast. lol, but eventually you will want a quite car, not worth the attention anyway

lol i doubt it was a d16y1, correct me if im wrong but arnt the SOHC vtec motors in an eg a d16y8?

back on topic exhaust has NOTHING to do it with, how agressive ur crossover relies on what intake ur useing, if u have a j's racing style intake (aka whales penis) your cross over to vtec will be alot if not definatly noticable

hope this helps

p.s i need pq points !!!!!!
