oh yeah glass packed.
just to let you know. overtime, the glass will melt and it will be nothing but straight pipe.

because they are loud and don't sound like a bubble bee. All I have is a glass pack and I'm affraid to drive too close to Cali for being afraid of getting arrested.

I have owned a glasspack. It was loud and obnoxious. It was bolted to the downpipe of a pacesetter with a turndown on the end. The inside melted. That was on a 2.6 Mitsubishi. After it died we put the muffler on an old Slant Six dart and it actually sounded good, kinda weird. I would not reccomend them on a Honda.

Not the best but its mad cheap and sounds better than a Glasspack. For $20 its not a bad deal. I showed I.C. that one and I think he is going with it. He is looking for a cheap exaughst so we will have to wait and see how it turns out for him. A guy at the Jegs store told me they sell tons of them, they rust after 3 Ohio winters but I.C. is down south like me so I don't think it will be a problem.

I have a Purple Horny on my 87 DX, and I like the sound of it. My setup is: Pacesetter header, hi-flow cat, Purple Horny, 2.25in pipe. It isn't insanely loud, it has a nice low tone to it. I picked it up at Knechts for like $15. They're cheap and sound good IMO.

if you put a glass pack on a honda you should put it after the cat but befor the stock muffler i would not get a bigger one then say 13 to 15 inchs long

i am getting a spintech or magnaflow bullet for my celica with a tip. a dynomax turbo muffler is great for the price and so are flowmasters. my bro had a purple horny on his car and it sounded cool! Also the cherry bomb mufflers dont sound right on a 4cyl.
