Personally, I would go Spugen. Here's why:

1) They sponsor the board.
2) They're local (for me anyway).
3) All the feedback that I've seen has been very positive.
4) Not to disparage anyone but I find it hard to believe that you're going to get much in the way of additional hp out of any exhaust so you might as well go with what looks good. IMO, that's the Spugen oval/oval. Great looking exhaust, IMO.

SPUGEN. GO WITH SPUGEN lol. I bought their dual SS Titanium tip exhaust and all I have to say is its the best exhaust Ive ever heard. And I have heard just about all of them. Not only is it awesome sounding, its light weight and looks extremely nice on the car. Duc was great about everything and kept me updated every day until it was delivered. SPUGEN GETS A A+ from me.

PM Ahhhvtec and ask him. He will get you all the info and set you up with a great price. Oh and im not sure about the comptech but the Spugen also comes with silencers which make the car sounds just like stock.

I have to agree with everyone. Spugen is great. I just got the dual oval/round tips. It sounds almost identical to my brother's comptech, and is half the price. It has a more aggressive look too, IMO. Duc is a great guy and bent over backwards to get a perfect fit and finish. He even let me borrow his car for lunch! What other company has customer service like that?

Go Team Spugen!

I have a Spugen single canister exhaust. Mine is loud. The canisters are louder and so are the singles so the combination makes quite a bit of noise. It is very boomy b/w 2800 and 4800rpm. But, once you uncork it and get into vtec this thing makes some of the most beautiful music I have ever heard. I love it! If you do not want it to be so loud go with a dual with oval mufflers. It will give you about 5.5 hp and looks totally bitchin. Customer service rocks too. I can't imagine the Comptech being any better but I have not heard it.
