I can't give you a product number. There are WAY too many applications. The best thing to do would be to get under your car and measure your stock muffler, then get the closest match out of Dynomax's catalog. Any good muffler shop ought to be able to tell you what will bolt up to your car too- after all, you're just looking for a Super Turbo to work as a direct replacement for the stock muffler.

No, not at all. If I can find a clip of someone's exhaust that I have sitting around here, I'll post it up. He had a Dynomax Super Turbo on an otherwise stock exhaust CRX, and it sounded pretty good.

Ok, I think this is it: http://www.hondaswap.com/~mike/temp/wdown.mp3

But I'm not 100% sure.

If you want to hear what the different exhausts sound like, just hit Dynomax's web site here:

http://www.dynomax.com/sounds.stm

You can hear what the Ultra Flo sounds like on a Civic (think it's a SOHC VTEC)- the Super Turbo would be a good bit more muted and deeper.

------

Hell, after another 10 seconds of looking- you could have found the application list:

http://www.dynomax.com/pass_import.stm

Click on the "Honda" link. A little research on your own goes a long way.

i personally use magnaflow mufflers..they sound very good and arent that expensive. that and they use a steel mesh instead of a fiberglass packing to muffle the sound so theres less chance of burn out.

No such thing as a muffler which gives you performance.
Save your money and do it right the first time around by getting a REAL and full exhaust system.
Why waste money on garbage?

Try all the big car parts places- Jeg's, Summit etc. They'll do it.

A simple muffler welded on is rice, period! I'm sure you can afford an Apexi N1 catback exhaust, they got for about $165 on Ebay. Or better yet, my personal choice would be an Apexi WS Series catback exhaust, they go for about $340 on Ebay.

Make a smart decision, you're talking about your Civic here.

this is true...i do love my Civic...but I am a grade 11 high school student...lol...with no job...makin $30 a week!!...thats sad...lol...but ive heard that the N1 by Apexi is wayyyyy to loud and will give you headaches...and I looked on the Apexi website and I couldnt find a WS that would fit my car exactally...but il keep lookin...thx

My son shares your predicament. He's a tenth grader who worked all summer to pay for his share of his car, a 1992 4dr EX with a B16A swap. He works at least one day per week and takes home $49.

When we purchased the car in the fall, we knew that we'd have to replace the exhaust (original except for a 4DR GSR muffler) and such process was expedited when it rotted away at the cat on our way to emissions inspection.

We agreed with the consensus and forked over the big bucks and purchased the WS2 (for the coupe) and a Magnaflow direct fit cat. We were fortunate that this combo did not require any adaptation (except for flipping the cat upside down) for our application.

Son has to work extra days for his share of the cost but I know he's elated with the choice. We debate each potential modification as our budget is limited. Exception was the GReddy shift knob where my part was finding a used one on Ebay for a whopping $2.25 plus shipping. Son absorbed 100% of cost - LOL

Best Regards,

Newbie Dad
