There's not a ton of options for the second-gen cars actually. Your choices:

GReddy MX
HKS Hiper
Tanabe Super Racing Medalion
Tanabe Super Hyper Medalion

The GReddy and Hyper Medalion are more reasonable sounding, the HKS and Racing Medalion are really loud.

For reference as to what my personal definition of the terms "loud" and "not loud" see this thread: https://www.honda-acura.net/forums/s...threadid=35132

Thanks for the reply, but is the HKS hiper exhaust really worth $500. I was looking into just buying say, an APEXi muffler or an HKS and having a shop make me a custom cat-back. My friend with a '02 Lancer did the same thing. Is this a good idea and anyplace where I can find just these mufflers cheap?

Generally when you get something custom made on the cheap it's just plain old crush-bent tubing with no resonator. It'll sound like crap and won't do anything much other than make your car louder.

If all you want is for your car to look cool ("I gotz mah tiiite rimzz and exhaust y0!") then go ahead. I would highly recommend saving up the money and getting a full exhaust.
