I personally like it too. Having the exhaust nicely integrated into the bumper (kinda like a Acura TL) looks very nice IMO. If I were to do it that's they way I would go. But I have seen some pathetic workmanship, crooked piping as opposed to symmetrical, hanging mufflers, unequal gaps. I'm a perfectionist. If it doesn't look right, or doesn't work start over and goto step 1 and repeat until it does.

if(workmanship==crap) {
done=false;
startOver(done);
}
else {
done=true;
continue;
}

 

$150 for axle-back tubing... it was basically perfect (other than the unpainted body kit/shaved badges)... the flow was perfectly even (you could really see it in the winter), they were perfectly symmetrical, etc.

Meanwhile, my friend has a cavi with duals... I throw up in my mouth a little everytime I see it... the left muffler sticks out a good two inches further than the right muffler... it looks horrible (and sounds raspy as f**k, too)

 

i dont like dual mufflers looks nasty a honda i went with greedy look's and saound better

 

Reaper,
You see how you have square cut outs for the exhaust? Well build the exhaust tips so they follow the conture of the cut outs. That's what I had in mind. Otherwise its like putting a round peg into a square hole. Literally

i think if you got duals, in a year you'll wish you just had a nice single catback.....do you have an aftermarket rear bumper with the dual cutouts? If you do and are going to keep it, then i can see you getting duals, but even then i'd say double twin-loop mufflers ftw.

 

^ seriously, if I hadn't taken the body kit off, I'd still be rocking my dual exhausts... they sounded so much better than my single exhaust... quieter, less raspy, etc. And I like the idea of duals with twin loop mufflers... I might have to do that sometime... I plan on building an EG up as a show car anyway.

And EJ8, I understand what you're saying... unfortunately, I was a ricer when I had the kit and everything (threw an unpainted kit on an automatic civic, modified an automatic civic, thought my automatic civic was fast, etc.), so I really didn't take how clean the final effect would be into consideration. If I were to do a dual exhaust system on a civic again, I'd either have round dual outlets or square tips.


(and I know I'm going to catch hell for having had a civic with duals on at one point... it doesn't help that I still don't see anything wrong with them and plan on doing it again lol)
