Exhaust
What should I do to upgrade my exhaust? Should I just get a Cat Back Exhaust or something, I don't know. I want my exhaust to sound deep and not like a lawn mower. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks

Well I'm probably a bit biased about exhaust systems. You should listen to the dyno pulls here . . .

I get a LOT of comments about it!
It isn't compliant with California emissions rules because I am running NO catalytic converter however here is what I have: 1) OBX headers, y-pile and cat delete pipe. 2) Stromung b-pipe and muffler. 3) EVERYTHING from the headers back to the exhaust tips has been ceramic coated by Nitroplate out of Nashville Tn. 4) 3.5 engine with Type II Legend camshafts. 5) Custom 4 way valve job machined 3.5 heads with Type II springs and valves. I've since that dyno run added the Legend community group buy lightweight crank pulley and already had a Bosch Acura Legend specific high output racing alternator which runs a smaller lighter-weight pulley. I wouldn't mind a set of light weight pulleys for the rest of the accessories. Needless to say there was spent a little bit of $$$ just on the exhaust system, most of which cannot be seen. The Mad Scientist does have a tendency toward being a bit "eccentric" and does "little" things like that on his various EEV creations! Rumor has it the Mad Scientist plans on running EEV down the drag strip in Atlanta during NALM 2016! So I guess we'll all just have to wait and see if said rumors are true!

Gotta remember, the G1 and G2 both sound different from each other. What I'm running is OBX headers, 2.5" piping from the back of the CAT to the muffler, deleted resonator, and dual tip Stromung muffler. Here's a vid: https://youtu.be/smfPeyJrSEI
