2" or 2.25"? cat-back xhaust - whats your opinion?

[FANATK]

my muffler is literally broken, rattles when given too much pressure so looking to get a cat-back with cannon muffler...

i used to think 2" is the best, but reading here and the integra-tech forums im reading 2 1/4 is more common., but i mainly find vtir info not gsi.... :roll:

so what do you guys think is best 2" or 2 1/4"?

also anyone recommend good places round westside of sydney?

thanks :D

[tanghy]

2 1/4
you have a 1.8 not 1.6

[FANATK]

i know its a 1.8L...

whats the size of the standard exhaust ? 2"?

[VTEChnique]

For any B18's [acronym:be2d8eb61c="Valve Timing and lift Electronic Control"]VTEC[/acronym:be2d8eb61c] or not i'd recomend 2.5" with a large resonator to cut some droneing, but yeah definately 2.5".. 2.25" minimum HAHAHA

[[[d a n n y]]]

2.5 for top end.mate..

id say 2.5

[snowman95]

Let me be the one to tell you, yes it is!

I’ve had the same question, I’ve got a 94 gsi, not sure what you’re running, but I slapped on a 2.5 on mine with a 4nic tip and couldn't be happier. I’ve run into no probs, the car sounds great and it’s not that loud, just incase your worried about the RTA. :wink:

i've got 2 1/4
its a perfect setup on mine

you'd probably lose low end power if you went 2.5" imo
i haven't lost any low end power, and gained more power in the mid-high range :)

how many resonators have you got running on yours?
i'm running 2 1/4 stainless steel cat-back with a single "hot-dog" style resonator and straight through muffler and its 108dB :P

[FANATK]

most likely im gonna look for a 2 1/4"

Would it be alright to get an exhaust on an Auto Integra, sound wise?

[FANATK]

personally i dont like auto's with loud exhausts, can notice/hear them all the time... just the gears changing on an auto with exhaust dont sound good...

but a something discreet and not loud in a sense is ok :)

[EG_2_TEG]

yeh, loud exhausts on autos are pure rice
autos are good if ur running say 500hp on a car such as a 300zx
