I did a lot of searching and found that magnaflow was a decent exhaust for cheap. I read that it gave some good low tones as well. Today i bought a magnaflow 14827 muffler and got it installed for 140, so the price wasnt bad. Problem is it doesnt have the low tones that i wanted. It sounds more like a weedeater....Will it get lower after it has been on the car for a while?
Is there any other reason that it may sound like that?

 

I also did a similar type setup straight through tenzo r muffler. It has a deep tone after driving the car about 30 mins or so but before that nothing much the sound the exhaust makes is less than a greddy evolution. So im figuring like 3 or 4 more decibals then stock. To make it louder have custom piping made and a highflow cat. I didnt buy a brand name exhaust for 3 reasons. 1: they cost 400-600 2: They only give like 3 hp which isnt worth it for me and 3: when i go turbo im gonna have to do a custom exhaust around 3" or so for the least backpressure and not many companys make them.. sorry for rambling on but ya get the idea

 

did you get one that the thing you read said had deep tones? and was that thing you read talking about deep tones on an import? i've always seen magnaflow on domestics.

 

With exception to the Apex-i WS, Greddy Evo, Remus & RS*R, 90% of the exhausts that I hear on Civic's (or even Honda's in general) sound like what you describe. :sad:

 

which is exactly why i'm not getting one
