Well if it's cheap and quality, it's probably not going to offer anything in performance

. If it's quality and performance, it sure as hell ain't going to be cheap

I was looking at the nameless performance 3" Track pipe but I have a feeling that is going to be loud as all hell.. and if anyone has it on their car near the portland area I would be interested in hearing it in person!

Just replace the frontpipe and overpipe with the Nameless combo pipe and keep the stock catback. It'll give you better sound, while not loud at all, and better performance than a catback.

Example of an exhaust that is cheap and quality? Haha

WNDSRFR · 04-15-2014, 07:53 PM

Such things do exist.

I run an Open Flash Header connected to a Manzo catback exhaust and I could not be happier.

The whole goal of modding these cars really is to get rid of the torque dip. And this is one relatively inexpensive step in the process.

I got the Manzo for like $350 with free shipping and the OFH was less than
$500.

A real good first step is to get a tune.
I don't want to be an advertisement but check out the Open Flash Tablet.

You won't be sorry.

Gut your cats and get a tune. Best bang for the buck.

Ten years later and I'm still happy as hell with this cheap ass pos setup. I had to replace the Manzo resonator about 6 years ago but learned how to weld in the process. I was just running with a 5 liter mustang the other day playing music to each other and I swear our cars sounded exactly alike. I've had so many complements over the years about the sound of my car. Everyone says it sounds so powerful. All I can say is Thanks. But, you know.

I also run the old Open Flash header, but paired with an HKS Hi-Power SpecL catback.
I absolutely love it, sounds amazing, no drone, not too loud, not too quite, doesn't sound like a fart canned Honda.

Best bang for buck catback is probably used gen 2 OEM. Removes what tiny restriction it has and keeps it quiet. I have one in the stash should I ever decide to the CSG touring is too loud.
