im not sure on the one that was stock but on mine it was fine as long as i kept it under 3k. but freeway speeds it droned and it was loud. with both cats still in i think it would probably be fine.

My Custom Rotor Hat from Coleman Racing arrived today,
and also the (USED) Exhaust Resonator from 2013 Civic Si that
I bought from eBay for just $30 including shipping last week...
well the resonator had little dent but for $30 it is ok

I already ordered (it is on its way) a 2010 Civic Si
rear muffler to be used with the above resonator...
I just have to found a good muffler shop to fabricate the custom piping.

Alright finally finished my Retrofit V1.1. Still the original Morimoto D2S 3.0 projectors, but I decided to change out the DRL halo XBs that burnt out a few months ago to the new color changing XC halo and added the XC Demon Eyes.

Also got a pair of Triton V3 white/amber switchbacks for the turn signal. Man they are bright! Gonna need to change out the 5500k XB T10 parking lights im using as they look more yellow now next to the 6000k Tritions.

Cleaned up alot of my previous wiring and my engine bay is "less" cluttered now.

Will post pictures later when it gets darker.

How does the switchback get wired? Does it come on as DRL?

And did you need to buy resistors?

hey y'all i havent posted here in ages!!! but today i added mugen style window visors AND i running mufflerless lol. i chopped off the exhaust from the muffler and its sounds pretty decent eventually i will reconnect the exhaust tip so it looks stock. that or maybe chop the piping to the resonator and have the exhaust shoot down from there.

it comes with a plug that goes right into the oem turn signal socket, the white light u have to either wire into your parking light or drl. the resistors are 10 bucks from them, but it just plugs right into their harness.

swapped out the XB LED T10s for a pair of 6k VLED leds I bought to replace the dead pair of XBs. TRS decided to warranty them and sent me a new pair, but the color was way off my setup, so off they go.

this morning my projectors wouldn't turn on. kinda odd. i was driving my commute (good thing it was already fairly sunny) pondering if i have tear out my headlights again or if the bulb or ballast is dead, suddenly they turned back on. turned on again when i went home. go figure.
