Default cat-back

Im looking for a cat-back for my 89 CRX DX. I want a deep tone nothing raspy. Price is an issue, trying to keep it $300 or lower. Anyone have any ideas?

Ha... hahaha.


Save the money to build the engine to something worth putting an exhaust on. Nothing personal, but for the money a cat-back is going to cost you, you'd be halfway to a ZC swap.

Im not worry about the engine. I bought my friends engine and tranny from his 2000 LS Integra. The engine and tranny will be in after I do internals. Price is an issue because i also have a Subaru Legacy 2.5GT and parts arent cheap, I also just picked up a 1990 CBR 600. The exhaust on the CRX is rotted out. I need something for now until im finished with my LS engine. I found a Tenzo R axle back system. With shipping its $190, does anyone have this or ever heard anything good or bad about it?

if your looking for somehting cheap then why are you worried so much about quality... i bought a vibrand for like 175 becuse my car had no exhaust when i baught it... i still havt changed the exhaust even though i really dont like the sound but im waiting to have enough to buy a thermal R&D, if you really dont want to spend all that much and you really are stressing about the price get a stock one, you wont have to worry about the sound and the price shouldnt be all that bad

Remember, that's just an axle-back. That has virtually no performance benefit.

I already have headers and a highflow cat. Now that I think of it, maybe I should just go with a cat back instead of waiting to get a mid-pipe.
