well, there are a lot of them you just gotta use the SEARCH button. Off the top of my head, i know there is:

AJ racing 50mm
AJ racing full titanium
skunk 2 50mm
skunk 2 60mm (for FI)
Invidia
Megan Racing
Modacar (best bang for buck)
Aspec Racing (if they come out w/ a mid-section)
Tanabe (idk if they have a midsection)

I recommend the modacar racing one. It has came down about $200 from when it was initially released at around $400 so that's the best deal so far. Check out the link:

+1 pretty much what koolkev said.

You can also buy a Megan B pipe or Spoon B pipe and just pair it up with any axle back out there.

I personally have the Megan B pipe + A spec axle back and I love how it sounds.

i have the Modacar/ForcedFed catback installed and it's a delight. doesn't have that high ratatatatat noise from crappy tin can exhausts, gives a very nice low tone. Definitely recommend it for the money.

go to modacar.com and look up their number. i bought the exhaust as part of a power package. i think they give a small discount if you buy exhaust/headers/intake in any combination.

I found some vids of the forcefed.. just curious about the highway cruising. I think the catback is a little loud for my tastes..

poet you got any pics or clips of that setup? Is that baffle looking thing in the tip removeable? It looks like it might be but I'm not sure.

I can get ahold of someone's digi cam later and take some pix. I've been meaning to for a while but exams have been smacking my ass

Highway cruising isn't bad. If you keep the revs below 3.5k while you're on the highway it stays fairly subtle.

Is the Modacar setup an axle-back muffler and a B-pipe? Could you use the B-pipe from Modacar with a different muffler? I beleve the Megan b-pipe is not a direct bolt up? as the o2 sensor locations are different or something. Anyone have any thoughts?

Yeah it's an axle-back and a b-pipe. the b-pipe is split into two sections and everything bolts on directly. i think albert from modacar said that you can swap the axle-back for another one, like the tanabe axles. as long as it fits the stock axles it's cool.

any idea what the Modacar pipe diameter is? The Megan is 2.25" which as discussed in other threads its good for Forced Induction but a little big for Normally Aspirated.

the exhaust is 50mm = 5 cm = 2 in(2.5cm = 1 in)

that's what i've heard so far about exhausts too. 60mm and up is too much for an NA fit. i think the only 50mm i've seen are the modacar one and the skunk2 one.

Im scared to get a Bpipe. With my T1R testpipe my current Twin-loop is a little loud. It has a deeper note with some buzz but its not annoying. People always tell me how good my Fit sounds.

I know once I add a B-pipe shes going to get really buzzy. If it was fast I wouldnt mind. Like; if I had the JR kit.... I could care less what it sounds like.

i just installed MODACAR 50 mm catback exhaust,i got it for $239,out the door i pay $ 274,the quality of material,fitment is perfect,no cutting or welding,the sound i love it,and the last but not the least the PRICE,its very hard to find a new catback exhaust for $239,so i can say its best bang for the buck in my imho.
