Stock Muffler Restrictive?

[zigg_1311]

I have a 93 ex, and i like the way my dual tipped muffler looks and sounds, now i do want to get the most horsepower out of my cb, but i would like to keep my nice sounding muffer, the question is, is my stock ex muffler really restrictive and will i see any real performance getting rid of it, and getting say a greddy sp2 muffler, or apexi ws2

Full catback will not give you tons of power but it will gain a bit horsepower. If you want more power , work on the engine.

X2. If u want that extra umpth, get a cam, delta 272

oh yea, i know that stuff, but keeping the stock muffler in the long run wont hurt, i plan on dont the h23 upper plenum, obx ceramic header, already installed aem cold air, and a delta 260 cam, just wanting to know if the stock muffler will hurt at all

WIll it hurt no, but it is restrictive

You have manual right? H23 transmission will give you more kick.. I noticed this when I rode on jdm_inspired's cars. 1 with f22 manual and 1 with h23 manual , the h23 manual has more pull.

nah i have a auto, i know it sux, but i will be a daily driver, so i aint worried, looking for another cb with a manual, and i do have my eye on a da integra

i got a 2 chamber welded thrush muffler, just gonna stick a 3 inch chrome tip on it, i think i will be alright, it was free too

I got a dual outlet flowmaster for sale. Sounds real nice. Check the classifieds.

thank you god some people know the benifits of higher flow mufflers as opposed to fart cans besides me...props to the guys who don't use straight through n1 style cans...although one after something like a flowmaster would soind nice...

I can vouch for that

Whats that supposed to mean...N1 IS a straight through design. It does not get anymore straighter than that unless you go straight pipe. I run an N1 and I have no regrets. MxCx has heard mine in real life and I have clips. Mine does not sound ricey at all. I have no rasp. Its all in if the person know what needs to be added to make it sound good.

oh yes i hate fart cans so much, and anything that sounds raspy, i know if my car starts to get raspy, i am definetly throwing on another resonator

[johnnyo032003]

yeah go with a real muffler i mean you will lose fuel economy if you put an n1 muffler on but a flowtech warlock or the like will improve the fuel economy and add horsepower. and i know for a fact that n1 mufflers lose fuel economy because when i first got my cb7 i put an n1 muffler on it and it lost a ton of gas mileage and low end torque put a regular performance muffler on and it sounds and runs better plus there won't be any blown piston rings on my car anytime soon sorry to tell you but your n1 exhaust will cause excessive wear on your piston rings... you'll find out soon enough though.

if you don't want raspiness just get an intake and exhaust, i was fine up until i put my DC sports header on
