    Exhaust on Type S

    Hi, i have a Honda Integra Type S 2004 model. Its completely stock. I was thinking to get an exhaust system inlcuding headers/extractors. I want a nice sporty sound and nothing too drony/deep (like a canon). Im looking for a system which will give me better low end power and torque. Any ideas ?
    thanx

    check out youtube for sound clips like Fujitsubo, 5zigen, Skunk2, buddyclub, HKS exhausts all sound great.

    For your header, any decent header would be sufficient like T1R, Mugen, Toda, Buddyclub, don't for get a high flow cat as well

    Also make sure you have a CAI

    and you're pretty much set on a sporty sounding type S

    cheers

    IMO
    Intake: Injen or Gruppe M
    Headers: Toda
    Exhaust: FGK RM01A or FGK Powergetter or HKS Silent

    But all that could cost you up to 5k.
    Nice car btw. Post up some pics dude.

    Go to a reputable exhaust shop and go custom. Have a system designed specifically for low-end power.

    Not only will it be cheaper, but it will most likely outperform any ''off the shelf", setup for the low end. But keep in mind, you will sacrifice bragging rights, for the use of non-jdm tubes.

    Varex exhausts are now illegal =/

    if i owned a type-s i would either get a custom system with a x-force twin loop or buy a proper JDM kit like in the vid i linked u before

    100% sure Varex is illegal in NSW.

    Seeing as you want low end power, if you decide to go to an exhaust shop don't increase piping diameter.

    But IMO the better option is to buy an off the shelf product that is backed by R&D and also dyno figures for performance gains.

    they are illegal australia wide ... it happened in the east states before it did here

    it all went down around last september

    it is now illegal to modify the exhaust of your car IN ANY WAY that gives it the ability to change sound levels while it is being driven

    The varex are considered a "temporary defeat device"

    Check out page 10:

    http://epanote2.epa.vic.gov.au/EPA/P...;FILE/1031.pdf

    It is an offence to own or use a vehicle fitted with a temporary defeat device, inlet port restrictor,
    exhaust port restrictor or temporary noise reduction device. These devices, when fitted to the exhaust
    system, can temporarily and easily change or vary the level of noise emitted from the exhaust.
    Examples include variable exhaust restrictors, cutouts, bypasses, adjustable/variable/sliding
    openings on mufflers, restrictive or temporary insert plates and steel wool.
