$380 for aluminized steel piping, muffler, stainless steel tip, straight through racing resonator, out the door. All welded up to the cat flange. Just deep and quiet and when VTEC kicks, all you hear is intake. The trick is the bending machine.
The piping is 2.25" aluminized steel and it runs from the cat flange to the straight-through racing resonator and continues on to the turbo muffler and out the three inch stainless steel exhaust tip mounted flush with the bumper (not sticking out). The tip itself was $70 because of the material. Chrome tips require a bit of upkeep to stay looking new, but cost considerably less. The whole setup was $380. It gives me just as much flow and power as a catalog brand and I can take it back to the same shop that made it if I want it modified, which I will here very soon to compensate for the increased air flow (2.5" collector of JDM ITR header I'm fixin' to get, 2.5" test pipe, needs 2.5" exhaust). I didn't want a huge noticeable coffee can exhaust that blinds you when you're driving behind it at night (enter small muffler and modest 3" tip) and I didn't want the annoying riceboy sound (enter resonator). I couldn't be happier with my exhuast. Most people even think it's stock.
