Extremely quiet. Good build quality on the muffler as well. Had the RS (the WS replaced the RS) on my Integra. Nice piece, almost too quiet.

Ask Cheston he has this piece.

I have it and I love it. Nice low tone. Much quieter than other cat-backs (Greddy or Stillen). I like the quiet tone. My intake makes the noise.

Hmm, so it doesn't sound like a little Honda pocket rocket type thing? How much was it? Thanks

NOT AT ALL LIKE A HONDA. It's a deep tone that reminds me of the second gen BMW M3 exhaust. I picked it up for $400.77 shipped from Vitessi motorsports.

The WS exhaust is awesome! Get this exhaust! I would strongly recommend this exhaust if you are planning to get a y-pipe. Even with the y-pipe, it's not loud at all. It's about right. Check my profile for a pic.

You don't need to remove the tow hook, but I removed mine. The tow hook was hitting against my WS exhaust, that's why I removed it. Mind you, I drive pretty hard, maybe that's why it was banging against the exhaust.

I noticed a litte in the mid to high range. Probably about as much as the intake. It helps the engine breathe even better when you have a y-pipe too...our stock mufflers and b-pipes are VERY restrictive.
