A nice quiet axle back system?
Anyone know of a nice quiet axle back system?
I am thinking of getting something to replace the "dinky" little pipe we have on our Fits...
any suggestions?

I love my aspec racing. Very quiet if you have a drop in air-filter (no intakes). When i installed my Last Station Powerbox last night, the exhaust tone became a little louder. Still sounds real nice, not ricey or "bumble bee." I also recommend what james said and go with tanabe.

I like how everyone recommend what they themselves have...or sell....
following in the grand tradition:
I just wanted to get a tip but I want it to be dual so I started looking at factory replacements...
bought a lightly used Civic SI rear section for $50 paid another $60-$80 to have it all installed and mounted properly.
I love it. It sounds great, being that it's designed for a larger engine the flow rate is slightly increased and it has a nice low tone. It completely eliminated the factory raspy sowing machine exhaust toot.
I love it. Best thing I could have done, all the other options just seemed really childish.
I out grew the coffee can style long ago and there aren't really any other's on the market right now that sparked my interest.
plus I got to stay "factory" haha/
5/5 in my opinion

i like the HFP muffler that honda offers, its not too loud at all, its not pretty loud but it sounds real nice in the lows and when u rev it up, its definently worth it if you want something that doesnt make too much noise.

I've put the Apexi WS exhaust on all my hondas/acuras Prelude SH, S2000, and Acura CL-S 6SPD. Its very quiet. Im hoping that they make one for the fit. Can u guys with cam phones/etc record you cars as the drive by full throttle and normal driving plz. This would def help us all here pick the exhaust we want. Also post the exhaust you have when you do this.

All right.
I know I've been busy lately and I've received a few pm's from a few peoples asking about my muffler.
I would like to first explain that MY muffler came off a 2004 Honda Civic SI (EP3 Hatch). It was quite used in my opinion, the outside was aging and it had been sawzaw'd off from the original car at a muffler shop (god knows how many years ago).
The twin tips were still shiny chrome so he sold it to me for $50. Install about $60. To me: it looks like it should have come like this from the factory.
Ok, I have 2 pictures and a Video.
The Video I uploaded on Youtube.
Some businesses and schools have opted to block this site, but if you are already reading this while at work then it's probably not an issue.

The video was taken this morning at 10am. The car had been sitting all night and it was a cold start, meaning all the piping was still cold. It sounds even better once everything has warmed up.
Don't give me shit for revin it before letting it properly warm up, it was starting to rain and I just wanted to get inside.
but I must say:
I would drop my Fit in a second if I could buy one of these here.

I just for giggles Krylon painted the outside in flat black, but
After a year of:
road trips
the salty north and
30,000 miles plus
It's showing it's age.
As any muffler would.
Aftermarket or not.
