hey i turned to you guys for help i was thinking on puting a high flow cat and 2 1/4in pipeing with an apexi N1 muffler anybody have any comments on this setup I wanted some sound out of it and i wanted a bit hp out of it 2 but im open for comments thanks

ok, you need to make sure that you are getting the right cat on the car, because the converter we have is small already and the converter we have is a three way converter. So just grabbing any high flow will cause you not to pass smog. Also, if you are going to lower your car in the future, you may want to get another muffler. The Apex is a 7in round muffler with a tip in the middle, allowing the belly of the muffler to rest just low enough to scrap on driveways. That is why a lot of mufflers made for our cars has the tip seperate from the muffler. Check out my exhaust and let me know what you think.

Careful about the aftermarket cats. the flow is really good for the 96 and newer cars but the cat on our Xb is small enough to maintain a good flow. The 5Zigen rear section for the car is an excellent exhaust. The tone quality is deep and the improvement is noticable above 25K. I drive between 25 and 4K anyway.

There is still a smaller cat that is still high flow, that works great. Click on my link above to see it. And it will pass smog!

yeah its big tip and how about the skunk2 muffler any one know about that is that 2 big of a tip 2

I wouldn't recomend the Skunk2 muffler, my buddy had one on his civic and when it was vibrating. They gave him the run around on his warranty. And he had purchased the whole cat back system. I still say the magna flow looks and feels better.

then i dont know what i shoud do i wanted a bit more sound out of it that magnaflow u have is a bit silent so i wanted something diffrent then i was thinking of an apexi or and skunk 2 so then i dont know again they hang to low so i dont know what i shoud put on there the blitz nur spec is good 2 but then other pepole say its crap so i have no i dea on what to do

Just add the magna flow muffler and cut off the resinator if you want more sound.
