So? He lives in Virginia. :chuckles:

As per VA state law, all exhaust modifications are illegal. It is usually not enforced, however.

That setup should be loud and have a nasty rasp.

its gonna be loud and sound like shit probably. really raspy is my bet. :yes: what kind of exhaust do you plan on getting? my setup right now is a DC Header, T1R test pipe and T1R exhaust and it sounds really nice and deep but when Vtec engages its pretty loud.

I have no resonator and my exhaust sound kind of raspy, would putting a resonator give it a deep nice sound? Woud it rob horsepower?? (my muffler is APEXi with 2.25" piping)

The car gets inspected in PA. And I have a vtec controller in it. The Vtec kicks in at 4,000 at full throttle. Other small tweaks. So it is oud already, through a BS muffler shop can on a otherwise stock exhaust. I'll let yall know how it comes out.

ummmm, you live out VA beach right. The cops in that area have pulled a buddy of mine over in his civic for his exhaust system (and issued tickets) each time he has gone out that area. Don't do it unless you wnat a ticket
