    Default Muffler choices.

    Before you start flaming about how mufflers are rice, im getting 2.5", from the cat, back but i need an opinion on a muffler for it. I cant decide if I want to go with the large 3-4" tip exhaust thats on so many hondas or go with a more stock look, and change it up a bit. So lets see what IA thinks..
    Also someone school me on resonators, i plan on getting one with the exhaust but im not sure what my options are like.

    LOL. You get what you pay for - the Vibrant stuff is definitely affordable and sounds great.

    Not a fan of the look, I dont think it would look good on the car. Yea, i know you get what you pay for and all but im a college student thats broke as fuck. Ill have to see how much im going to pay for the piping. And still any word on resonators?

    So why not save your money until a better time in your life for modding? Maybe I am missing something here - IDK.

    magnaflow resonators are the way to go, but its pointless to buy a good resonator if you put a shitty muffler on it...

    If you have a muffler on your car that works - then save to get something right the 1st time. If you don't have money to do it right what makes you think you will have money to do it twice? What's the big rush? Not tryna school ya but it doesn't make sense to me. Anyway -- I hope you get it dialed in man.

    if i had to choose i go with the 1st..not too much, but looks different. Ive always been a flashy exhaust guy.. i dont know when sometime in between the jdm craze, and the clean phase honda owners stopped with aftermarket mufflers., but will go buy a 800$ header, and have it squeezing it thru their stock type r muffler....

    And dont ask for suggestions on IA you will just get talked out of it....if u havent noticed already..

    Leave it stock if you're a starving college student. It's just one more thing to get stolen off the car when it's parked lol!
