By the way, if you have a Y-pipe and you install a catback exhaust behind it, you may be in for something of a shock.
But then today's solutions are quite often tomorrow's problems.
Have fun.

I am one of the people who would have spent the money for the Greddy had it been available when I did my cat-back. I also would have been the first on the board to have sold it after I installed my Stillen Y-pipe.

why would you sell it... too loud? from 1-10 (1-lexus quiet... 10 riced out civic with drag pipe). I was thinking of getting an exhaust system but I got a y-pipe, hi-flow cat already.

Yes, I would have sold it because when combined with my Stillen Y-pipe, I believe it would have been too loud. I had a Greddy muffler with a custom b-pipe and non-Greddy resonator and it sounded perfect. Then I installed my Stillen Y-pipe and it resonated too much between 1-2k rpm and was too loud overall, even ignoring the resonance. This was my own opinion, which reflects the fact that I feel that this is a sporty family sedan, not a sports car. Others may not feel this way and don't mind it being too loud (MrBurner!!!). On a scale of 1-10, like you mentioned, I'd only give it a 6 or 7 because it wasn't nearly as loud as some of the obnoxious riced-out Hondas I've heard. You can get more info, including sound clips, on the site in my sig. (P.S., don't listen to the "outside" .wav file because it overloaded the microphone and doesn't sound anything like my car did).
