i have seen many people have done the muffler delete on the 1.5t motors with mixed reviews on how it turned out. But has anybody done a muffler delete on the 2.0 NA? I have the 2.0 and was wanting to see if anybody had some input or sound clips of how it sounds.

Just a plain muffler delete on a 2.0 wont sound that great imo. The 1.5 has a turbo which sort of acts like a muffler but the 2.0 is na so it will be way louder. Imo instead of deleting the muffler altogether you can get an aftermarket muffler like a magnaflow or something and also get an exhaust tip to run it through. That'll provide a clean look and improvement in sound as well.

Yeah it probably would be too loud. I forgot about the turbo muffling the sound. What I really want is a just a little more deep sound but still take on long trips if I had to. Also I want to get the diffuser with the dual pipes. So I have to split it into dual tips as well

Are you talking about adding a borla muffler to your car? because I'm trying to do the same thing too but I'm not too sure which muffler works with the civic. Do you know which exact one because theres like a ton of borla mufflers.

Muffler shop should tell you it but it depends on what will fit under there
