stock eg6 is quiet yes , but a 2.5inch system will give u better gains and be louder .. but also depends on ur muffler , if ur on a budget .. get a 2.5inch system with xforce twinloop muffler + mid muffler + resonator = WIN WIN

im runnung the same setup as i just stated ..

2.5inch piping
Mid muffler (which is like a muffler in the middle reduces sound badly)
Resonator
and twinloop muffler

very very quiet on idle and crusing and nice on vtec!

:) get it

I swear that's the first piece of advice I gave you...go XForce lol

But if you're staying NA and don't want too much noise I'd go 2-2.25" as 2.5" might be a little loud for you. I've got a CRX SiR and I use a 2" 5Zigen full exhaust system which was originally loud to me (I drive an EH for my daily car with stock exhaust...) but has since begun to feel a lot nicer on the ears :)

i thought 5 zigen exhaust should be quiet....it shouldn't be too loud!!!

my friend recommended me to go for the stock DC2R cat back....looks nice and not loud!!! (but hard to find)

Nah it's not loud, it's quiet. But I was saying it just felt loud to me because my daily driver is an EH VTi with stock exhaust and that's quiet by comparison lol

I suggest X-Force because it's good quality, good price, and easily accessible.

2.5" is overkill for a stock b16. You will lose what little low end power you already have. Go 2.25"

finally purchased the X-force manifold & cat, plus HKS hi power, it should be 2-1/4 inch all the way.....hope can install it on monday,

finally installed the X-force extractor 4-2-1 and cat, with the HKS hi power cat back this afternoon

the noice is very good, very quite under 4000 rpm, and getting more deep noice when the Vtec kicks in, completely satisfy on this choice.

however, don't know why the exhaust tip is 4.5 inch, but the full system is 2.25 inch. seems looks a bit funny!!!!!!

also, it sits really low, forgot to worry about this before i purchase it, so need to drive very very careful. may need to back to exhaust shop to raise up the mid muffler.

will post up some photos tomorrow.

thanks hips for all comments!!!!!
