f that..i just heard my friends civic 1.7 w/header, dp, catback. i can't drive a car that's that loud. i will just go w/an exhaust setup for now. any advice on what to get for cheap? i'm thinkin megan as i've had luck w/them before as far as price/quality goes.

woah! good catch- i see no piping either, glad i asked you guys and gals first.

 

a resonator will help with the sound... quiet it down a little.

 

you're probably right but i'm thinking that the max i would get out of a combo like this (even if it were a better known brand) would be about 17 hp. not worth it to me. i'll just turbo it when i get a chance and rebuild everything at once.

thanks again for the advice everyone. i also noticed this is a repost. i searched before i posted for "exhaust combo ebay" with no luck.

the car already has springs/short shifter/injen cai and i'm sure there are a few other mods i can't visually identify yet as I am picking it up on saturday.

 

on a stock vic.... 17hp is a dream. youll be lucky with 10 imo

 

i meant in addition to the cai- but even then i believe you're right.

 

its all going to vary but its best to estimate low so you dont make an *** of yourself saying your at 140 when your barely breaking 105 at the wheels.

btw weight reduction is the cheapest way to go faster.

 

in that case i will say +5 ..

to the flywheel.

 

well, alot of people dont know the difference between crank hp and wheel hp...
