i've seen recirculating exhaust like that. Well more sleek and low-profile there were on Type-R's that were doing road racing. But looking at that ebay muffler. it looks like crap.

how is this suppost to fit on your car?


Save up and get a full catback. If you just want a loud sounding exhaust go with the 2nd one, or any decent looking exhaust on ebay.

I say goto a custom exhaust shop... around here there is a place called "Lou's Custom Exhaust," that has three shops in the boston area. $225 and I got a fully welded custom bent cat-back exhaust (pipes garaunteed for 5 years, muffler for life.)

My choice of chrome tips (or stainless if you want to pay up a few more dollars.)

They make it all fit perfect, let you decide exactly where you want the muffler to sit (how high, how far in/out from the rear of the car) before they tack it in place and weld it all together.

Highly recommended, my exhaust sounds fantastic... not too loud, not too quiet, doesnt sound raspy or anything... sounds perfect. The brand of the muffler is "bullet". You can pay a bit more and get magnaflow also.
