Arrow Suggestions on a new exhaust system

I just bought a 90 vert and I am looking for suggestions on a new exhuast system. I know I need new cats and probably new pipes wouldn't hurt. I want something that sounds full, but not loud. Nothing ricey, something that makes car sound really good. If anybody has any suggestions on what I should do or where to find reasonably priced parts let me know.

Thanks, Matt

yesterday i used exhaust putty on all my flanges because my exhaust is just filled with holes. its better but still has a small leak.

this EXACT topic has been covered many many many times.


if you did a search you'd find out that people that dont like loud exhaust go with the racing beat setup.

others that want bang for their buck,dont care about image, and dont care about loud go with corksport.

catco has cats for cheap, or you could get the racing beat "down pipe" and presilencer combo.

thanks for playing.

this is the cat replacement/presilencer combo


or you could get a streetable header and presilencer, but it is more pricey.

Try a Bonez cat, custom cat back with 2 Supertrapp muflers. I have had this setup for over a year. You can vary the noise/back pressure by adding or removing the discs on the Supertrapps. The Bonez cat from www.rx7.com will last 30k to 90k depending on which model you get.
