    pretty sure you can't get that sound out of a civic cause the engine has a lot to do with the sound as well. 3.5L V6 w/ tuned exhaust...civic won't come close....don't worry i wish too!! lol!

    Yeah, it is just a good tuned combination of the 3.5 VQ engine and exhaust. I have a 04 G35 that has a great sound. I swopped my midpipe out about a year ago for the coupe one...less bends, better sound, and much lighter. Then put a Z-tube on the intake from a 350z. My G35 now sounds almost the same as a 350z.

    I have never seen an exhaust that came close on a Civic. The one I have on my Accord show car even sounds like the typical exhaust. It is a DC Sports.
