if u wanted the deep note a wrx makes then u'll have to go with a cat-back. axlebacks wont make much difference in sound. but just to let u know, u'll never get the same exact sound. diff engine, turbo etc etc. heres the megan racing cat-back that was on my car:

its really dark and bad vid quality. but thats pretty much how it sounded. its the exhaust i still have lying around.

sounds nice man! i saw the pics of your old car, the exhaust hangs quite low doesn't it? is that how you told the guy to install it? you couldn't tuck it under the bumper?

**DC5.Raven** · 12-11-2008 03:09 PM

nah thats how it came when i got it. didnt really wanna change it up. actually me and a mate installed it. used a couple of jacks and got under the car. pretty easy. and cause the car was not lowered, didnt really scrape.

you still wants it?

**DC5.Raven** · 12-11-2008 03:12 PM

oh and u dont want it too close to bumper. it might melt it.

ill try and get a vid up next week of mine, i got a custom cat-back.

nice! i just bought a can the other day.. hope it sounds alright, since performance was never my real issue.. any suggestions as to where is a good place to take it to get it welded on, and how it should be done? location, southeast melbourne.

To the Civic Vi (EU) owners,

Does anyone else find the lack of center console the biggest pain in the ass ?
Pisses me off so much i just got junk rolling around everywhere (so dangerous)

Designers of this car should be shot just for that reason!

hey guys,

just wanted to know if any of you who has the es1 sedan and have a short ram intake, whether anyone has put in a front strut bar? it seems the intake pipe sits quite high - probably almost touching the bonnet - and is there any problem with fitting one in? or its not possible? i was thinking of getting one, but looking in my engine bay the other day, i don't think it will fit because of the intake. thanks!

I just pumped my car with premium unleaded, hoping for some sort of difference..i got 405km from 35.01L from my previous tank, hopefully premium will make a difference. Do any of you guys pump premium? I'm doing it just out of curiosity, my car doesn't really deserve premium hehe.

yeh, i do v-power and ultimate all the time.. i know my car is no performance vehicle, but i find that it does run better and a little extra mileage with it.. let us know how you go!

i like having the extra room. Maybe u should clear the junk in your car so that it's not "dangerous"
