    2.5'' piping?

    I wanted to know where I could get custom 2.5 inch piping for a 4th gen? How much would it cost? Also, would i need to get a muffler welded on? Anyone who has gotten custom piping please tell me. Any info is appreciated, thanks.

      That seems pretty cheap compared to the 400-500 exhaust systems from Apexi and stuff like that. Is there any disadvantages or advantages to getting custom piping and muffler welded on than just buy a whole exhaust system from Apexi or DC Sports or Greddy or brands like that?

        Yeah but if you take the turbulance out of the exhaust flow you could pick up a tenth of a second, maybe two. It's not a humongous difference but it makes a difference none the less.

          can i just buy 2.5" piping like the kind they use for the expensive exhaust systems, and then get a muffler welded on?

            yeah but it has to be done right or you will see no gain but a loss

              I'd have to agree with Busted. Yes a custom shop doing it is cheaper, but if you live in MI where rust occurs, then I'd suggest a stainless-steel exhaust. If you live out west, go for it!! And send me an Accord with no rust while you're at it

              Yea, you might pay more now, but it'll last you longer than a mild steel material. Treating the mild steel for rust prevention may extend the life a significant amount if you do it right and still might be cheaper. That's a possibility.

              We have already replaced exhaust parts on both our Accords and I think previous owner on one had changed something out previous to us getting the car...rust blows man.

              I'm just going with Thermal 60mm SS
