Looking to add more sound to my civic and am looking at installing an aftermarket muffler.

Without a tune, would this slightly decrease performance? Also have heard in the past that the aftermarket mufflers don't last the lifetime of the car..?

Opinions and suggestions welcome!

You want more sound just remove the mufflers and or with or without resonator. Or how about just get a new exhaust.

none of those exhaust are made for the car in question - the sedan exhausts do fit the ex/lx hatches but may require some fiddling around with the hangers to avoid burning the bumper

It does require modification but looking at the guy who was doing it was very simple
Just realized this isnt their cat back and you just welded new mufflers to the existing exhaust... NVM

Yup! I have a catback on my SI it’s too much noise inside the car TBH on my daily driver i just want something with tone and extra kick. For $200 can’t complain.

I hear ya, i just dont wanna have new mufflers put on and it end up sounding bad and having to repeat when i can just buy a cat-back. Im not too worried about cabin noise but thats cuz im a ricer at heart

I’ll get a video up later...honestly I really like it. Like what i said earier it’s not a noisy as the catback but doesn’t give you any performance as well but it does look and sound really cool.

Not a muffler but this made it sound more like a real car. The local muffler shop charged me 50 for the tip and 100 for the 2.5 inch piping and labor
