hey, guys.
im looking for new muffler to replace with my factry muffler.
cuz i only want the sound, maybe sound like buddy club spec IV.
so, any suggestion for my purpose?
also, my friend told me if i replace with wrong muffler, i will become slower?
and how long gonna take to replace the muffler?
someone told me 30 mins? someone told me 1 day?

i recently purchased the buddyclub pro spec from Akina.. very loud exhaust.. at first it was giving me headaches, but now i'm used to it and liking it... it gives a nice rumbling sound....
It doesn't take long to change the muffler. Akina and I had ours swapped at Top One and it only took 20 mins..
AAI Motorsports had one brand new Buddy Club Pro Spec exhaust left when i checked with them 2 weeks ago. They quoted me $1,150 pick up. Give them a call to see if they still have it

I suggest you fork out $1k for an aftermarket cat back because you can sell it when you decide to sell the car...you will need to spend around $400 + install for two decent mufflers anyway..and they wont be worth much when you decide to sell the car.

i totally agree with racerwannabe, you'll sell the buddyclub easy afterwards..

if u decide to go the el cheapo route, many would say not to and wait till u have enough money to mod ur car properly....and do it right once because down the track u'll end up spending more money than when u could have done it right the first time.
but if ur still adamant about modding the exhaust for the sound only and going the cheap route, you can always head on over to liverpool exhaust as they have some cannons and can basically chop your old mufflers off and weld the cannons on instead.
if ur strapped for cash thats fair enough but i still stand by my suggestion (as would many others) but like I said, at the end of the day its your car and u do what u want with it. if ur happy with it and fine with it, then thats what counts.

If you want a nice note get your exhaust resonators removed and run the left (looking from the back) muffler open-pipe

Looking off the BuddyClub website, it seems that only the Pro Spec III is available for the Euro and not Spec IV
TSX / EURO R CL7 K20A $1,329 <-- from buddy club website, and i'm pretty sure it's dual for the Euro..
can someone confirm?

Yea, BuddyClub only made one for the CL7/9 and thats the dual one (Pro Spec or Spec III Pro).

Buddy Club also has a single muffler exhaust called the Pro Spec IV. Give them a call and they will tell u all about it..I was going to buy this from them but the muffler went missing..retails for around $1k. i reckon the dual looks better though.
