    Recommend Header back exhaust needed for H22

    Exhaust will be for a H22A engine in a 93 accord

    Well, here's the deal. I have a bunch of holes in my exhaust (thank you salty roads ) and it would be mush less of a hassle just to replace it all. I have a budget of about $400-500 for the complete exhaust from the header all the way back to the muffler. I'm pretty sure I can get a good deal on the cat back by going custom at a local muffler shop (2.5" exhaust). But I need reccomendations on a decent header that's at least as good as the stockish one. I'd like this exhaust to be pretty quiet and drone free on the highway.
    I'd also like the system to be free flowing

    Let me know what you guys would do

    thanks,

        I might be able to use a header I have from a 01 prelude. I'm kinda wondering what if any gain I'd get out of a semi cheap header <$200.

        Also what if any reccomendition's are there for a quiet yset free flowing exhaust? I'm mainly asking this question to see what kind of muffler would be best. I've seen a few that look interesting, but I have no idea how well they'll perform or more importently sound on a higher performence Honda four banger. In the end I'd be quiet happy with a semi quiet exhaust that does NOT have ANY rasp. I don't think I'd be happy with something as quiet as a WS2. On the other hand I guess I would be. but I just want to hear the exhaust a bit more then that.

        Any ideas, please don't be afraid to post 'em up.

          1. Just use the OEM if you have it. You can just hack the end and tell them to convert it to 2.5" or whatever thats what I would do if I had an OEM downpipe if it was possible.

          2. Listen to my vtak lol yea its just some clips of my exhaust its from cat back 2.5" though with ebay n1 replica muffler. Really monotone and quiet.

          3. With a prelude oem header should have plenty of money to do whatever left.

            get a custom crush bent exhaust with a ES tunning muffler. My brother had it in his civic with a b18c1 sounded clean ran with no cat. He had a type R style cams, manifold, and dc header.

              you need a long muffler a big one not some cheap shit, magnaflow i have a clip. i found an 18 inch resonater on the ground at the junkyard, and i hooked it up to a dc sport header, payed 300 dollars for a custom downpipe welded to the resonater and 2.25 out (i know i know) to a magnaflow muffler.

              i love my exhauast, it sound just like a corvette, queit when you drive so you can only feel it more than hear it. then when you hit it, you feel it you hear it, and so does everyone else.... but when your not at wot, you dont know it drove by if you were outside... probly because of the 2.25, i wish i had 2.5 specially because im spraying soon.

                NAiL, The OE prelude header has a heatshield built into the header where the 2 pipes merge into the final single pipe. so that might be a bit hard to get it 2.5". still might be cheaper though.

                norco, I'm considering that muffler as well.

                RoCkn, After a bit a research I think you're onto something. I figure that the longest muffler along with a couple resonaters should keep it to a dull roar

                  oh you want it from there....Usually 2.5 goes from the end of downpipe out. If you want something like that you might as well invest in an RMF, Camp1320 header or something that already has a 2.5" collector to the end. But those headers are out of your budget range (Camp1320 like 400 something shipped).If not then you might have to go complete custom. I am running a cheap 25 dollar muffler off ebay its working just fine.
