Which exhaust for me?

Go the fujisubo power getter...
From your description on the sound you want I would say power getter is what you need.
I got it on my car now and it's real nice..
When just cruising at speed the sound drops off, not completely, but doesn't attract attention... When you rev it you get all the sound you need..
On normal driving when you hit 3500rpm thats when the sound starts to get loud.. For some reason when I drive once I hit vtec I can only hear the engine and the exhaust sound is sort of a low rumble... Not too sure what it sound like from the outside though...

But yea, I think power getter would be the one your after..
I recommend...

Hey I'm looking for an exhaust system for my gsi and I have the same sort of requirments as Shebangs, I just wanted to ask is the x-force exaust with the twin-loop muffler a good choice for this? And how quiet is it? Would it be louder than stock because I don't want it that quiet.

i would recommend any fujitsubo or tanabe exhaust system, have heard a few and all seem to be what your looking for.

ur a f*cking numrod. put it simply and truthfully, ur not going to know which exhuast system / muffler is going to suit you best until u try everyone out there. on every different car, the sound is going to come out at different volumes and pitches. and then, even then, additions of silencers + resonators, + mods etc will change the note.

so REALLY, u dont know what ur asking, and overzealous mods deciding on what is read online are only narrowing down ur choices.

this is the very reason why 99% of online information is false. because mods swinging around their ban sticks decide what shold be read, and wat shouldnt. so there is only a certain amount of informaiton lying around. one mod chooses. another dumf*ck n00b reads it, and regurgitates out the next time someone asks the same question. and the cycle goes.

watch this reply dissappear too :thumbdwn:

i'm with him...
you won't know exactly what the exhuast will sound like unless you have it on your car

the thing is, most people won't know what exhuast you have anyway just be listening to it, os just get what you want

get a stock itr exhaust, ur comfort wont suffer and u can listen to ur tunes too...

MUGEN CAT BACK ? TWIN LOOP MUFFLER

or just get the muffler if you want it louder or quieter
just either run diffrent size resonator or no resonator at all

or you could just jump in every ones cars until you hear " THE ONE YOU WANT" and copy that exact setup...... then youll change your mind once its installed in your car

lol

i recently got the HKS silent hp cat back installed which i love.
before that i had custom 2.5inch piping from cat back with no resonators which was just rediculously loud lol (was more of a joke than anything)... but the hks silent hp follows exactly the description acquired from the name... silent but gain in horsepower... feels so much more responsive than with the custom :)
when i say silent, its probably only 'slightly' louder than stock, which is exactly what i was after, cause i also do highway driving and didnt want anything that drones.
i was deciding between that and the fujitsubo power getter aswell :)
just my 2c

meh... this is quite a long thread when it comes to putting an exhaust on??

i think u should decide like this... decide on which one makes the more power, then the sound then the looks...

if ur just gettin an exhaust for the sound then ur quite silly... with power noise will always come.. they go hand in hand..

if ur willing to sacrifice a few measely stinking kilowatts for a bit of comefort i think ur a smart man... the FJK's are quite nice and stock looking and dun create too much noise with power increases...

i love free plugs

get the Fujisubo one.......i have it on my one........sound awesome not too loud but yet you can hear it!!!!very nice noise

Your kidding right? People get cat backs for power? lol. Yeh..that 1kw at flywheel was worth the $1000. Power gains from exhaust stops at the cat. Show me a car dynos on mugen headers and cat, with stock cat back, and with *any* brand name cat back, and I bet ya they'll be SFA difference.

If u are only gettin 1kw gain at the fly with headers and catback then uuummm.... sumthin is definately wrong with ur dyno and/or car...

When we dyno DC2 type-R's with our TODA 4-2-1 Headers and any standard Jap made catback we get 8-10kw's at the "wheels"... depending on wat intake's the cars have...

but anywayz wat do i know.... and uumm... we dun sell Fujitsubo.. i just thought they were quite good from experience..
