Default Need Advice on OBX Exhaust

I've got a 2000 Integra GSR with an AEM CIA and Greddy Header, now i'm looking an OBX exhaust, but I know very little about them. I would appreciate any advice. Thanks

why OBX? I have never heard a good thing about their products, and there are so many other choices.

I just looked at exhausts pretty extensively, i have heard that the OBX bend in an odd way around the fuel tank, could be just rumor, but it is better to buy a well known brand. I just bought the greddy evo on groupbuy for 450 bucks shipped.

actually they dont buzz. i'm running their axle back right now, and its one of the deepest exhausts i've ever heard. at one point i considered their cat back just because its stainless steel, mandrel bent, and the price was right. but i got the axle back for a good price, so i just picked that up for now til i can afford something better..

yup, stick with a well known brand. you dont want to take a risk on something that you're going to hear every second in the car

Default thanks

Boys I appreciate all the input, nonetheless, the decision was made last night. Just so happens a guy who lives in my town has a GSR with an OBX and I thought it sounded great. So I got the catback last night off ebay for 250. "Good Deal " If for some reason I don't like it, it's no big deal, I love working on my car. I'll find something else, and make money off my OBX. Thanks for all the replies. Oh, and if you're curious to see what it sounds like, I've got it downloaded, just let me know and I'll send it to you.
