I need to get a new exhaust for my 96 H22 Accord because the Magnaflow that is on it is just TOO LOUD. I'm looking for something with a deep tone to with a little volume. I just want to be able to talk in the car while driving down the highway without yelling. I'm new to the Honda's so any suggestion I'd greatly appreciate

is the resonator that straight thick pipe near the center of the car? I have a Magnaflow setup right now that was on the car but I want to change it. Should I just get a good muffler and have it welded on?

Yeah between the cat and the muffler.

what are the gains of taking that out?? what would be a good muffler to put on there?

Well it just muffles sound. The bigger the area of the pipe, the more room for sound to resonate, which reduces noise. I am not in the know about honda exhausts. My car just has stock exhaust, with a piece of "straight pipe" welded in place of the muffler.

Is your accord a coupe or 4 door? If its a 4door I have Greddy EVO II catback for you. LMK

I've always heard that Greddy cat back systems are a little more quiet with good performance, but i've never had one myself. still might not be as quiet as you want though.

what are you talking about??? if he wants it to be quiet he needs resonators...they really dont affect performace very much.
