I've heard HKS, and Nippon, (and I must say I'm a bigger fan of the Nippon sound) but I've got a question. HP gains aside, which exhaust (including Mugen, etc.) is the most likely to give me the deep, throaty sound I'm looking for?

P.S. I'm not looking for the whiny sound I hear every tricked-out Civic make, I'm looking for that normal-under-idle, deep-under-acceleration sound that I know I can achieve.

Suggestions?

Stay tuned for the MG Racing exhaust that we will be installing on my car and then dyno'ing and recording. I have the HKS and love the raspy F1-ish sounds of it. But the MG Racing is deeper...

Don't make a move until we have the sound files and dyno charts posted...

Do it soon. I've heard the HKS, but am not a huge fan of the F1 "sound" but would love to hear the MG Racing.

Bring it on . . .

Hehe...

I'm actually more of a fan of the Mugen intake's scream... but you really can only appreciate it when you're out of the car. I can't hear it when I'm driving on the track, but man, when I let someone else drive it while I watch... I'm mesmerised. It's not like my other car where you can't hear it until it's almost past you (and it sounds like a jet), when you get blown away by the sheer velocity...
