Hey guys, I recently picked up '94 Civic LX as a daily driver. I have a buddy who is selling an Apexi N1 muffler that he said he'll let me have for $50. I did a little research and it looks like this muffler is worth near $200. i was originally planning on keeping my car stock, but I kinda like the look of these mufflers. Gives the car a more aggressive look (cosmetic of course lol). My only concern is how loud will this muffler be on my car? I will not be touching the rest of the exhaust. Keeping resonator, catalytic converter, etc. Will I have drone, rasp? How loud over stock will it be? Here are some pics

 

search it up on youtube to listen to how they sound. IMO i wouldn't pick i up. its going be significantly louder than stock and might get raspy

 

NI is NASTY sounds like trash.


as for the look, even worse than the sound.

 

I would pass on it. The axle back (muffler and piping to the rear axle) brand new, can retail for $200. It is worth no more than $50.

Please please please please please.... go to youtube and search for civic exhausts and find what you like best sound-wise and look-wise.

As long as you do that research, and you know what you are getting yourself into, buy whatever exhaust you want.

 

It'll be loud, annoying, raspy, and drone like a **** while cruising. Basically, I'd pass.

Look into twin-loop mufflers. They're some of the best sounding mufflers for Hondas IMO.

 

Will it really be that loud/raspy? Without removing the resonator and cat, I figured it'd be louder than stock, but nothing near screaming like a piece of lawn equipment haha.

 

Yepppp, if you want a fart can than get it, noone on the forum will recommend it though, so dont expect that.
