custom fabbed exhaust for 13b?

i'm going to need to overhaul my -SE's exhaust system soon after it's running. i was thinking of getting a RB short-primary header and shopping around for the rest.

i know i'll need to get thicker-walled piping to cut down on the tinny noise. however, what sort of noise reduction options to i have?

i've been tossing the idea around in my head of getting some sort of heavy duty straight-through design muffler to mount in place of the cats, and then getting a high-flowing baffled design for the tail. do you think that would put it in the racingbeat territory, as far as DB level goes?

just want to explore options other than racing beat. i'd welcome any input from you dudes.

thanks

Deffinatly get an RB presilencer if you're trying to keep noise down. Then search out a muffler that can stand the heat and you're set.

But no matter what you fab up I doubt it'll last as long or sound as good as the full RB system.

I use an RB header and Muffler and then just have a local shop Fab the Middle.

This is the best I have found so far.
