Upgrading exhaust flow without a 'fartbox'
So, I'm planning on picking up an exhaust and header for my car, problem is, most exhausts I see that have decent performance benefits are designed to be noisy. I don't want my car like that, and I don't want to attract police attention either.

+1
"Fartbox" sound is inversely proportional to price.

My Megan Racing cat-back is extremely quite, just leave the silencer in. It is good exhaust and not that expensive $325.

a silencer virtually defeats the purpose of the 2.5" piping.

magnaflows and megan racing sound essentially the same. ive heard a magnaflow on a 97 dx and a megan racing on a 00 ex (and of course on fortys 99 ex) and they sounded almost the exact same.
