Everything is new from the cylinder head back all megan 2.35" mid pipes with larger than stock resonator and AeroTurbine 2540i muffler.... Got to have the Apexi Exhaust Control Valve installed at the local muffler shop when I find the correct flanges..... I've driven in Dallas twice since Friday and the cops haven't even looked my way, But it is LOUD.

almost the same setup as my accord... megan headers/downpipes/test pipe, fleabay resonator, dynomax super turbo with aeroturbine resonator tip. Loud but never been pulled over by cops unlike when I went with megan racing from headers to muffler. I think as long as you make it look "stock" as possible you're good. Your AeroTurbine 2540i's look is not an attention getter

All of the bubbas, good ole boys, red necks, transplanted yankees, hillbillies ,and sons of wealthy businessmen, doctors and lawyers drive trucks SUVs and imports with after market exhaust..... At 80 to 90 MPH it sounds pretty quiet, same at 50 to 60.... On the highway at 70 it's very annoying as hell so I stay in the slow lane most of the time.... I'm getting much better gas mileage than I expected by staying at 60 to 65 at 20% throttle opening on flat terrain.

Remove the evap canister while you are down there too Plug the vacuum line but make sure you let the fuel line vent to atmosphere.

Actuay if the canister and solenoids weigh more than 10 pounds I'd say go for it.

Remember the pic you posted below...


is that a wideband a/f? I noticed it has 4 wires

The secondary sensor, I haven't looked, but I thought I heard that it was indeed a wideband. Even more reason I wish Hondata would come out with a FlashPro for the GE. It's begging for it and things are already in place that it wouldn't or shouldn't be too difficult to port over.
