WORST sounding exhaust system for the FD?
i have heard a variety of exhaust sytems and setups on numerous FDs, both in person and in videos, and i have come to the conclusion that FDs sound like shit. (but i still love em! :p: )
what is your opinion on the worst sounding exhaust system for the FD?? |
BTW, if this gets moved to the Polls section....im gonna be royally pissed! :mad:
|
very curious as well...
I just got my FD 2 weeks ago and the exhaust is all rotted out, so this is as good a time as any to go aftermarket. I have never heard any aftermarket on an FD...out of curiosity, what was the FD in F&F running? I didnt think that system sounded too bad, definitely had more of a rumble/hum than the Eclipse and typical fart can.

worst exhaust sound
I have a pfs on my 94 which I like and a rb dual on my 93 which is actually a little quiet but I am adding a highflow so hopefully that will raise the volume a bit. I actually like the exhaust note especially when the 13b is buzzing around the track shootin flames. I don't like pettits intake noise but I think its the best one right now. Greddy exhaust sound is really annoying especially when decelerating. Sorry I just can't stop IMO pfs is the best flowing, sounding, and lightest exhaust.

I think the HKS TI sounds awesome. potatobbq (mark) can attest to this. :D It's loud but not in an annoying honda way. :)
|
I don't see my exhaust up there ... probably because it's da illest, foo.
|
Don't think an FD will ever sound like the one in F&F... They could've at least used something other than a piston motor sound effect for that one.:mad:
|
the trust evolution 2 (greddy j-spec) sounds amazing, it sounds good at idle and not too loud, but when the turbo on at like 4-5k it sounds sick(in a good way), it sounds awesome under overpasses when it echoes because the people around you are like WTF? its fun when you're racing someone and you go under the bridge next to them and they get all scared because they don't know where all the sound is coming from. i think it sounds good all the way through the power band.

guys, read the question. i did not ask for best sounding.
the question is what is the WORST sounding. what is the WORST sounding exhaust for the FD?? |

It's really just personal opinion. One man's floor is another man's ceiling.
Me? I don't want the deep throaty sound like a Mustang. |

Prolly Borla...i hated all their mufflers
|
The worst one is a Pacesetter. Sounds terrible. Any car that I've seen it on sounds like crap.
|
I haven't heard all of the one's you've listed, but I have heard the GT-Spec and IMO it's way too loud. Unfortunately it's also the best flowing so I'll probably end up buying it and dealing with the noise. I haven't heard it with the silencer, that might help.

Apex N1 Dual is the WORST that ive heard. I had it on my car after I did all my upgrades...couldn't hear myself think. so i stole my friends HKS Hiper ;) it sounds a lot better than the Apexi. still loud as hell though, my exhaust port is really big and squared off so I get a loud poping sound at high RPM's. sounds almost like a "Honda" I want a deeper sound, don't know if ill ever get it though...:(

It's hard to explain. I had my friend stand on the street while I flew by him at high RPM. He says it sounds like NOTHING he has ever heard or like ANY other rotary he has ever heard. |

He says it sounds like NOTHING he has ever heard or like ANY other rotary he has ever heard. but its only 2.5", so that could be a major turn off to most people. |

All the choices you have on your poll sound like sh*t, EXCEPT the Trust Sport Catback (that's the one I have). I especially hate the Apex Duals, and Blitz Nur Spec. I also agree with a previous post, that the PFS catback sounds too anemic (not enough low end grunt).
