true catback exhaust would be nice, but will require cutting of stock pipes. i am not into a full exhaust system, i am into looks and sound. i probably would get a Greddy SP exhaust/muffler when available. i had original TRUST exhaust on my civic and the look and sound was very nice. very deep tone.
(Trust = Japan, Greddy = USA)

i don't drive fast anymore, so no need for high horsepower gain.

i think differently... the 350z has a z tube which makes the sound a lil different but the g35 coupe has a great sound which is a v6 sooo u can get good sounds from a v6 jus gotta go with the right brand this one sounds horrible

This was posted in an earlier thread… the sound was taken by my camera phone. Do a search for tanabe exhaust.

Well I sure hope it sounds better in person because there will be alot of pissed off owners out there with there 40 thousand dollor cars out there sounding like civic with a coffey can for a tip. Not to rip any past or present civic owners maybe i should've said rice, but then again probably the same anyway.

I hope it's your phone, too, because I really didn't care for the sound when the engine was revved either. Idle sounded okay, though.

it doesnt sound all that bad.... I wouldnt mind if the exhaust was a little more deeper tho.

Try getting a sound clip of the exhaust when the car is actually moving. Ive noticed that the exhaust sounds differ from when you are in neutral and reving or in drive and actually rolling.
