- Tue Jul 15, 2008 12:02 pm #62129 Hello all,

If I was to purchase a cat back system for my hatch does the cat back include a high flow cat convertor or is this something extra I would need to purchase to put between the headers and the exhaust?

Also are there any manufacturers that make a system that doesnt end with a massive cannon on it?

I'd prefer to have high flow and keep the noise as low as possible, does such a thing exist?

Cheers

- Tue Jul 15, 2008 3:33 pm #62142 in regards to the massive cannon question. spoon makes 2 different mufflers that do not have cannon tips

this is the N1, however, it is 110db which is pretty loud. you can buy a silencer for it for about $60. Spoons other muffler is the street type s, which is 90db and very low key. I know tanabe prides itself in its catback exhausts that deliver power under 93db. I believe the application for the EG hatchback is $690 and comes with a high flow cat, but the tip is rather cannon like

- Sun Aug 03, 2008 3:39 am #64343 What about an OBX Twin Loop system such as this? Are these units generally very loud?

- Sun Aug 03, 2008 4:27 am #64348 with that twinloop no they shouldnt be too loud..its more quieter than having a big bore muffler with a silencer..but some twinloops dont work too well with some cats..but 98% sure it will be very quiet..thats a real good mufler..silent but itdoesnt constrict the fumes

- Sun Aug 03, 2008 11:44 am #64368 very interesting... may i throw in a question? Is there a good cat back system that isnt an ebay brand that is not to expensive to buy? (cat back system) I just got a magnaflow muffler put on... I will also be installing headers soon.. but i was thinkin about a cat back exhaust... anything cheap?

SR*S makes one that I found, It's around 250, which isn't bad, and it has a real nice deep tone to it too. I'm purchasing mine in a few weeks.

I hadn't heard of it either, but I met someone with one on their civic, and it sounds really good. They make a catback that I found a lot of people put on their integra's.

[url]Here's the only link I could find, it's an ebay auction. but if you go into their store, you can find a video of one on a STI I believe

I'm getting that set for my Eg. I'm sorry if you don't like it, I'm just a fane of MR.

- Mon Aug 04, 2008 3:20 am #64469 I had a megan racing exhaust on my 89 hb, I liked it a lot. definately a good purchase man.

- Mon Aug 04, 2008 5:32 am #64477 *drooling*.... Apexi though eh?... to bad i dont have the money to buy like 3 of them and try them at haha....

- Mon Aug 04, 2008 5:42 am #64483 well, if I were you, I'd go with the srs or megan racing. Megan racing is a lot better known of a brand than srs, so you might feel safer going th route, but both are very good, inexpensive brands. Apexi, yeah drool. best exhaust I've ever hard, but expensive.

- Mon Aug 04, 2008 5:54 am #64487 .... awww.. well I should be lookin at cat back systems myself anyways.... I will have to agree with Sigo though... Im not a fan of the fart canan on most cat backs....

- Mon Aug 04, 2008 6:01 am #64490 Mugen also makes a twin loop catback that sounds awesome, but again, epensive
