header? or... exhaust
#2
It's all your preference, really. I would do them both at the same time, or if you can only afford one at a time, just save up until you can buy both. And I'm sure you already know this, but don't cheap out on exhaust.

well i have an intake, its an aem short ram.
i think i know what i am going to do,
my friend was telling me about a glass back...ever heard of them?
well i would take it to a mufflershop have them put 2 in. piping all the way down,
have them weld the glass pack where the resignator is and have them weld on an apexi ni mufler.
how does that sound??

A glasspack muffler will be loud, annoying, sound a little off on a civic, and will drone like hell on the highway. Trust me, I had one before I switched it out for a magnaflow chambered muffler.
Basically, a glasspack muffler relies on fiberglass packing (hence the name "glasspack") to muffle the sound; it doesn't kill off as much sound as a resonating or chambered muffler, so like I said, it'll be loud and annoying. Think Apexi N1 when you think of glasspacks.
As far as the exhaust, I'd recommend 2.25" piping, an actual resonator, and a twin-loop muffler. Incredibly quiet while keeping a nice deep growl.

yah dont ruin ur car with a glasspack bro, those sound better on trucks, hot rods, mustangs and camaros, etc. not on civics...dont scratch the itch until u can afford both the headers and the exhaust...thats what i gotta/have to do
