Product: Magnaflow Performance Exhaust.

Distributor: www.ptuning.com (http://www.ptuning.com/html/Item-Desc.cfm?PartNo=PTMF15641&MakeCode=honda&ModelCode=civic&ModelYear=1992%2D1995%20All%202Dr%20Coupes%20%26%2 04Dr%20Sedans&ModelDesc=Civic/)

Vehicle: 1992-1995 All 2Dr Coupes & 4Dr Sedans

Cost: $345.95 shipped

Installation: It was pretty easy. Need jacks, socket renches, and WD-40 if bolts are rusted.

Installation time: It took me and my friend about 45mins from jacking up the car to bringing it back down with the exhaust installed.

Review: I absolutly love this exhaust. It has a nice deep tone. I could definitely feel the power:D. I know it's a little pricey compared to ebay but if you dont like ebay then this is probably the cheapest you'll find it. I do though suggest that because it has a rather large tip(4") that you buy longer hangers for the muffler, I had problems with it hitting the bumber. Other than that i have no complaints and love it. You can read more about it on the website.

I went with magnaflow also and I love it too. Everyone seem to like Greddy Evo II but the price is a little high but is PCUPO is correct, that's a very good price.

dont sound too bad, sounds a little better then my tsudo, but I think that is primarily because of the resonator difference.

Damn that sucks (not your clip... the fact that I can't find a good one)... I've been really considering the magnaflow but I can't find any drive-by clips. Thanks though.

Excellent review, Thanks for adding to the collection!


Sounds pretty good from inside the cabin. The other two vids/sounds didnt work for me tho

Sounds like my intake.

What you need is a $10 mini mic taped to the back of your car with a wind buffer thing, then you can hear what it sounds like outside your car. Don't forget to use an extension cable, so if the mic falls off and grabs something it just breaks away.

I don't like the "ricey" sound, but I can't hear it in that video, mainly from the recording. I came across the same issue with my inboard recording. Also, why are you short shifting? The ricey sound only really happens after 6000 RPMS.

im not gena go that far outa my way just for some sound clips...its not a very ricey sounding exhaust, the sound clips were taken before i had my intake and header and it was a bit raspy but after they were installed, it got less raspy and a lil more deep tone. i wasnt racing or anything like that, straight lines just dont do it for me, was just out havin some fun and decided to get a quick clip.

Yea a header and high flow cat made a BIG difference with the sound of my civic.

Sounds great, but after 4K rpm and up.
As I drive my Civic mostly betwenn 2-3k rpm in the city will sound too deep for me.
I don't have VTEC as well. I think you do.
The sound is realy smooth and pleasuable to listen in the high range rpms!:)

i just bought the magnaflow exhaust for my 95 civic and it sound so good! i first had the straight pipe in that it came with and it had a little bit of a tinny sound but deep none the less then i put a magnaflow high-flow cat and wow GREAT deep tone noticable sound difference. I LOVE IT

2.25", which is right for N/A.

I have the same catback on my turbo civic, I'll upgrade to 2.5 piping soon though with a hi-flow cat. I think i'll do the install right at the dyno and see how much of a gain I get with a magnaflow high flow cat and 2.5" piping from the cat since the downpipe is already 2.5". Only problem is my catback piping is 2.25" and if it's changed to 2.5" someone will need to bend the piping to match the catback piping and weld it.
This exhaust really does sound great, i have a crack in my downpipe so it sounds a little off right now. I'll post a video soon.
