RSX is suppose to be a better muffler, especially the 05-06 as it is very similar to the Integra Type-R's in Japan. Yes I know the rsx is the integra, but Honda didnt modify it that much when they brought it over here.
S2k apparently people believe has less flow as it has two mufflers for a 240hp car which equates to 120hp of flow per muffler(dont know if that makes sense) but the rsx has only one muffler for 210.
Overall you wont get a lot of performance from either as they're very restricting. The exhaust has to loop around the muffler to get out. here's a picture of a cut rsx muffler. People have run this muffler on their civics and older integras and it's never sounded that bad.
If only the exhaust tip didnt have that stack behind it would that muffler be good to go. Judging from that pic I think you could try to slice that stack just enough to allow the exhaust out faster.
I was going to run 2.25" custom piping with a resonator to the 05-06 rsx muffler but after I saw that picture I didnt like the fact I wouldnt get that much performance; even though any bolt on for the F is minimal I found a more free flowing muffler for a little more(Greddy Evo;thanks David).
And the I believe the last gen Accord uses the s2k muffler, not the 2008.Last edited by ikayto; 06-06-2008, 05:43 AM.

thats what im fucking talking about......pix and all. the RSX makes sense being the better choice.
im not worried about performance, ive got a greddy header running too an e-cut out. i want the tone when its closed.
id still liek too hear from yall running either.
a friend of mine said hed trade the left s2k muffler for my extra h22 valve cover. id just give it too him, but illl take it anyway. i still might buy an rsx muffler.
fuck it ill run both!!! s2k left, rsx right.....thats how i roll.....
totally kidding, lol.Comment

If you dont care about performance than why not just leave your stock muffler.
But yea if your friend is going to give you one for a valvecover, I suppose why not. It'd only be about $40 or so more to weld it on to your piping.Comment

i was backing into a drive way and smashed one of my tips (ex model) into the muffler. so i decided too run one of those. my buddy just brought up the idea of the new new civic si's muffler too. as of now its what i can get my hands on, but he sent me a pic and it looks bulky. ill check it tomorrow and if i like it, ill prolly polish it up a bit.Comment

Why not just get a WS2 universal muffler? It'll have better exhaust flow than the other two.Comment

i want too maintain my sleeper look. those are loud.Comment

buddy of mine is running the s2k on his 4dr and hes boosted.. weither its restrictive or not.. sure.. but does it keep his noise decel down.. hell yes. u cant hear his coming unless he mashes the throttle and spool up begins..
i personally would take either of the mufflers.. open them up.. and remove the loop arounds.. just leave both entry and exit.. (not welded together so it fully bypasses the muffler though) just so that the exhaust gases go

simple enough?

since you have an ecut out.. then i think you should just take the s2k muffler your friend is trading with you. Those are nice sized tips for the cb
off topic: do you have a pic of how / where you ran your ecut out?

yea if you smashed your stock muffler, dont get a fart cannon, it would jsut get even more busted looking.
get a nice remus axleback or stay with the stock system and opt for a cutout.Comment

You don't know that. You can't just take 240hp and divide by two mufflers and call it a day. That's not how it works. The AP2 exhaust has a larger opening than the older AP1 exhausts.Originally posted by ikayto View Post
By saying that the RSX exhaust supports up to 210hp and the s2k exhaust supports up to 120hp...well, that's almost a 100hp difference. The relative size of the mufflers, however, aren't too different. You can't say that an RSX exhaust will allow more airflow just because it's normally a single set-up.
IMO, oem exhaust setups don't make too much of a difference between each other. You'd probably see an, at most, 1-2whp difference, if that, between two oem exhausts.Comment
