Your car is the best sounding one I have heard, although I haven't heard it moving or anything, you were the one that made me wanna do straight pipes. I believe yours are true duals too, looks like you have an H pipe.

And, actually it sounds awful, I know you could hear it on the camera, but in person you can't tell my car is on.

Thanks! Wish it was TRUE Duals! Single pipe converting to y-pipe, I had a custom intake (no longer have), zzp downpipe with high flow cat, resonator delete, and muffler delete... My next mod is most likely gonna be a front plog and 3 inch exhaust then ill be done with the exhaust... Im gonna get a better video tomorrow with some high reving and maybe even a drive-by if my neighbors arent p!$$ed by then

You're one of my favorite guys on the monte forum cause you actually like the way your car sounds with straight pipes.. lol. I don't get why people are so against an exhaust that cackels and stuff, my friend has a srt-4 stage 3 turbo with 3 in straight pipe side exit and that thing is loud as a ****, and when it cackels it shoots fireballs at you lol. I personally like the pure sound of an engine flowing through straight pipes :P Like I've always said though I love the way yours sounds. Mine... not so much.

Right! It doesnt take much to get it sounding like that... If you can hang online for a few minutes I just shot the video of my exhuast and revs and some stunts :P

Straight pipes are a way to get the purest and truest sound of the car, I would know, I basically have straight pipes on my Camaro.

Okay cool. Only reason I haven't done straight pipes is my pre-trial diverson that ends 9/11.

Muffler's are like make-up. They hide the true demon inside.

Very true! So to all the folks out here viewing this thread, if you have a Honda please dont try to make it sound like a v6 or v8. If you have a v6 dont try and make it sound like a v8, be different... I truly believe that with a plog and 3 inch exhaust that this car can sound nice, even though you will lose a lot of low end... I have 34 minutes until my new exhaust video is published on Youtube, for some reason it was 450mb lol.

Correct!!! That truck in my video sounded badazz! I had a 351W and the exhaust dumped right at the cabin with no cats no resonators no mufflers or anything! Everytime I drove it around the block neighbors were mad! The bad part about it was that im not use to driving a stick and the truck was a stick. The only way I can drive a standard good was if I was going fast, so guess how I drove it around the block lol (Kids in school). It sat in that spot for 4 months until I sold it for $500...
